EVC137 is a 20 m M12 connection cable designed for long-distance industrial sensor and actuator connections. It combines a PUR halogen-free cable with gold-plated contacts and robust M12 connectors. The cable supports DC PNP applications and includes clear LED status indication. High IP protection and drag-chain suitability make it appropriate for harsh and dynamic machinery environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Extended Industrial Connectivity
The 20 m cable length provides extended reach for large machines and production systems. M12 connectors support standardized sensor and actuator connections. Gold-plated contacts help maintain dependable electrical performance. The cable is designed for industrial automation applications.
Harsh Environment Performance
EVC137 is resistant to oils and coolants commonly found in machine environments. Its IP65, IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection ratings support demanding installation conditions. PUR cable construction provides mechanical durability. FKM sealing helps maintain connector protection.
Dynamic Machine Movement
The cable is suitable for drag-chain applications with repeated movement. It supports a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter. More than 5 million bending cycles are specified. This makes it suitable for automated and moving machinery.
LED Status Monitoring
EVC137 includes two yellow switching-status LEDs and one green operation LED. This gives technicians direct visual feedback during commissioning and maintenance. The visible indicators simplify status checking. This is particularly useful in industrial control environments.
