The IFM EVC829 is a 4 m connection cable designed to connect M8 and M12 industrial automation components. It features an M8 straight plug and M12 straight socket with gold-plated contacts. Its robust PUR construction, FKM sealing and high IP protection make it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Introduction
The EVC829 provides a practical connection solution between automation components using different M8 and M12 interfaces. It is suitable for industrial sensor, actuator and machine-control applications.
Connector Design
The cable incorporates an M8 straight plug on one end and an M12 straight socket on the other. Gold-plated contacts and nickel-plated brass locking components provide reliable electrical and mechanical connections.
Durability and Flexibility
The PUR cable is suitable for drag-chain applications and supports a minimum bending radius of 10 times the cable diameter. It can withstand more than 5 million bending cycles and torsional strain of ±180°/m.
Application Performance
The EVC829 provides IP65, IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection and operates from -25 °C to +90 °C. It is designed for demanding industrial automation environments involving oils, coolants and mechanical movement.
