Product Information
Full details
The Festo Connecting Cable ZC 2.5m (8047679) is designed for industrial automation professionals needing reliable connections for solenoid coils. Its key benefit is robust construction and versatile compatibility with various coil types and thread sizes. A potential caveat is its specific pre-assembled length, which may require alternative solutions for longer or shorter runs. This cable offers pre-assembled connectivity for solenoid coils, featuring a 2.5-meter PUR cable, compatibility with form A, B, or C solenoid coils, and M8x1 or M12x1 A-coded threads, operating within a -25°C to +80°C temperature range.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What types of solenoid coils is this cable compatible with?
This cable is compatible with solenoid coils featuring form A, B, or C, and uses M8x1 or M12x1 A-coded threads for connection.
What is the operating temperature range for this cable?
The Festo Connecting Cable ZC operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +80°C.
What material is the cable jacket made of?
The cable jacket is made of PUR (Polyurethane), known for its durability and resistance in industrial environments.
Can I use this cable for applications outside of industrial automation?
While designed for industrial automation due to its robust build and specific connectors, it may be usable in other applications requiring similar specifications, provided environmental and electrical requirements are met.
How should I clean the cable?
Clean the cable using a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents as they can damage the PUR material.
What does 'ZC' in the product name refer to?
ZC typically refers to a specific series or type of Festo solenoid coil or associated accessory, indicating compatibility for this cable.
Is this cable available in different lengths?
This specific product, 8047679, is a pre-assembled 2.5-meter cable. Festo offers other cable variants with different lengths and specifications.
Troubleshooting
Cable not transmitting power/signal
Verify secure connections at both the solenoid coil and the control interface. Check for any visible damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the solenoid coil and control interface are compatible with this cable's specifications (form A, B, C, M8/M12 A-coded).
Intermittent connection or signal loss
Inspect the cable for bends or kinks that might stress internal wires. Ensure connectors are clean and free from dust or contaminants. Check the operating temperature; if outside the -25°C to +80°C range, performance may be affected.
Cable damaged by environment
While PUR is durable, extreme abrasion or chemical exposure can cause damage. If significant damage is observed, replace the cable to ensure system reliability and safety.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable and resistant PUR cable material.
- Wide compatibility with common solenoid coil forms and thread types.
- Pre-assembled for quick and easy installation.
- Suitable for a broad range of operating temperatures.
- Reliable connectivity for critical automation tasks.
Cons
- Fixed 2.5-meter length may not suit all applications.
- Specific compatibility with ZC coils and certain port patterns.
- Yellow color might not fit all aesthetic or coding requirements.
- Requires compatible solenoid coils and connectors for full function.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a pre-assembled cable. Connect one end to the compatible solenoid coil (form A, B, or C) and the other end to the corresponding control system interface (M8x1 or M12x1 A-coded). Ensure connections are firm and secure.
Compatibility: The cable is designed for ZC coils and solenoid coils with form A, B, or C. It utilizes M8x1 or M12x1 A-coded threads for connection. Verify your solenoid coil and control system interface match these specifications.
Care: Keep the cable free from sharp objects, excessive pulling, or crushing. Clean the cable jacket with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents that could degrade the PUR material. Ensure connectors remain clean and free from debris for optimal contact.
