EVC138 is a compact 1.5 m M12 connection cable designed for sensor and actuator connectivity in industrial automation. It features a straight M12 plug and angled M12 socket with gold-plated contacts. The cable is resistant to oils and coolants and provides IP65, IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection. Its compact length makes it suitable for localized machine connections and dynamic installations.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Compact Connectivity
EVC138 provides a practical 1.5 m connection for closely positioned industrial devices. The straight plug and angled socket configuration simplifies cable routing. M12 A-coded connectors provide standardized connectivity. Gold-plated contacts support dependable electrical connections.
Industrial Protection
The cable is designed for harsh industrial environments and is resistant to oils and coolants. Its IP65, IP67, IP68 and IP69K ratings provide strong protection against environmental exposure. PUR construction provides flexibility and durability. FKM sealing supports connector reliability.
Dynamic Applications
EVC138 is suitable for drag-chain applications where repeated movement occurs. The cable supports a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter. More than 5 million bending cycles are specified. This supports reliable operation in moving machinery.
Easy Status Monitoring
Integrated LEDs provide operating and switching-status indication. The green operation LED and yellow switching LEDs help technicians verify connection status quickly. This reduces troubleshooting time during machine commissioning. The design is suitable for industrial automation environments.
