Festo Female 5 way Socket to Unterminated 3 way Cable Cable, 2.50 m

This cable is a field-to-controller connection for industrial sensor and actuator interfaces, offering a straight M12 A-coded socket on the device end and unterminated open conductors at the controller end. It is designed for static applications where ingress protection and chemical resistance are required, with a PVC outer sheath and a TPE-U(PU) housing material that support use in regulated and controlled environments. The assembly meets applicable EN standards for connection coding and wiring conventions and is RoHS-compliant.

• 3.8mm cable diameter for Compact routing and reduced clutter
• 0.25mm² conductor cross section for consistent signal transmission
• 4A current rating at 40°C to handle moderate sensor loads
• IP65/IP68/IP69K protection to resist dust, immersion and high-pressure wash
• 2.5kV surge immunity to protect against transient overvoltages

• Suitable for proximity sensor connections in harsh zones
• Ideal for actuator wiring in wash-down areas
• Used with controllers requiring open-end terminations
• Can be used for field device installations in cleanrooms
• Suitable for static cabling runs within machine cabinets

The cable is delivered with open-ended conductors with sheath removed and blunt-cut ends.

The M12 socket uses five-core wiring with three cores actually used for signals.

Electrical contacts are gold-plated copper alloy with an insulating sheath of PVC.

It is rated for ambient temperatures from -25°C to 70°C.

The socket uses a screw-type lock with wrench flats size A/F13.
