Product Information

Full details

This Festo Connecting Cable is designed for industrial automation professionals needing reliable connections for solenoid coils. Its key benefit is versatile compatibility with various coil forms and standard M8 connectors, ensuring seamless integration into existing systems. A potential caveat is its specific 0.5-meter length, which may require careful planning for certain applications. The cable features a 0.5-meter PUR construction with M8x1 A-coded connectors, supporting EN 61076-2-104 standards and operating within a wide temperature range.

FAQs

What does M8x1 A-coded mean?

M8x1 refers to the standard metric thread size (8mm diameter, 1mm pitch) for the connector. 'A-coded' specifies the pin arrangement and signal assignment, typically used for standard sensor and actuator connections.

What types of solenoid coils is this cable compatible with?

This cable is compatible with form A, B, and C solenoid coils, as well as ZC and special port patterns that utilize an M8x1 A-coded connector.

Can this cable be used outdoors?

The cable is designed for industrial environments with a wide operating temperature range (-25°C to +80°C) and a durable PUR jacket. However, for direct, prolonged exposure to harsh weather elements, an appropriate environmental enclosure might be necessary.

What is the power supply voltage requirement?

The cable is designed to operate with a power supply voltage in the range of 20.4 to 26.4 Volts DC.

Is this cable oil resistant?

Yes, the Polyurethane (PUR) jacket provides good resistance to oils and chemicals commonly found in industrial settings.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

Please refer to the official Festo warranty documentation for the specific warranty period applicable to this product. Information is typically available on the manufacturer's website.

Troubleshooting

No signal or power transmission

Verify that both ends of the cable are securely connected. Check the power supply voltage (20.4-26.4V dc) and ensure it is within the specified range. Inspect the cable for any visible damage.

Intermittent connection issues

Ensure the M8x1 A-coded connector is fully seated and locked. Check for debris or corrosion on the connector pins. Test the cable with a different known-good connection point if possible.

Cable not functioning in extreme temperatures

Confirm that the ambient temperature is within the specified operating range of -25°C to +80°C. While rated for this range, extreme conditions can sometimes affect performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust construction for industrial use
  • Versatile compatibility with multiple coil types
  • Standardized M8 connector ensures easy integration
  • Wide operating temperature range for demanding environments
  • Pre-assembled for quick installation

Cons

  • Fixed 0.5-meter length may not suit all applications
  • PUR material may be less flexible than rubber in extreme cold
  • Specific M8x1 A-coding might not be universal for all older systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the M8x1 A-coded end to the solenoid coil and the other end to the appropriate port on your control system or sensor. Ensure the connection is snug to maintain a secure link. The cable is pre-assembled, requiring no special tools for basic connection.

Compatibility: This cable is compatible with solenoid coils of form A, B, and C, as well as ZC and special port patterns. It adheres to EN 61076-2-104 standards for M8 connectors, making it suitable for use with a wide range of industrial automation equipment. The power supply voltage required is 20.4 → 26.4V dc.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, periodically inspect the cable for any signs of physical damage, such as cuts or abrasions on the jacket. Clean the cable with a soft, damp cloth if necessary. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners that could damage the PUR material. Ensure connections remain free of dust and debris.
