Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Reliable M12 Interconnection
EVC168 provides a ready-made M12 plug-to-socket connection between industrial automation components. Its 2.5 m length provides useful routing flexibility. Four gold-plated contacts support dependable electrical connectivity. The design is suitable for sensors, actuators and automation equipment.
Robust Industrial Cable
The cable uses 4 × 0.34 mm² PUR, halogen-free construction. TPU connector housings provide mechanical protection. Nickel-plated brass locking components support secure connections. FKM sealing helps maintain environmental protection.
Harsh Environment Resistance
IP65, IP67, IP68 and IP69K ratings provide high protection against dust, water and cleaning conditions. The cable is resistant to oils and coolants. The connector construction provides reliable sealing even in demanding installations.
Dynamic Machine Performance
EVC168 is suitable for drag-chain installations. It supports more than 5 million bending cycles and a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter. This makes it suitable for automated equipment with repeated movement. The design also provides resistance to vibration and shock.
