ifm electronic 4 Way Sensor Actuator Cable Female M12 to Male M12 Polyurethane Jacket 1 m, IP65-IP69K EVC718

ifm electronic EVC718 is a robust 4 way sensor actuator cable engineered for reliable connection between industrial automation sensors and actuators. It features a female M12 connector on one end and a male M12 connector on the other, each with four contacts, enabling safe and efficient signal and power transmission down automation lines and in equipment wiring harnesses.

The cable offers a 1-metre length, providing flexible routing options for use within electrical panels, machinery, and factory automation cells. Its black polyurethane jacket delivers excellent resistance against abrasion, oils, chemicals, and mechanical stress, making it ideal for both fixed and flexing applications in high-duty environments. Polyurethane construction makes this cable free of halogen and silicone, supporting clean-room and sensitive process areas while delivering superior longevity and safety.

This EVC718 cable accommodates demanding industrial installation scenarios thanks to its 250 V and 300 V AC voltage rating. The M12 connectors with gold-plated contacts ensure secure connections, maximum conductivity, and long-term corrosion resistance even when exposed to moisture or vibration. Both ends are rated IP65, IP67, IP68, and IP69K, ensuring reliable function in environments subject to water ingress, dust, and repeated high-pressure cleaning cycles.

Common applications for the ifm electronic EVC718 include factory automation, packaging machinery, production line control, robotics, food and beverage processing, and any automation equipment requiring robust, rapid-plug sensor or actuator cabling. The cable's trusted cULus and UL approvals further support use in regulated industrial environments.

Key design and performance highlights include silicone-free formulation for sensitive areas, halogen-free safety, and gold-plated contacts for high signal reliability. Ifm's ecolink range ensures compatibility with a broad array of sensor and actuator port configurations, with this cable delivering plug-and-play integration for standard 4-way M12 interfaces.

Choose the EVC718 for flexible installation requirements where electrical and ingress safety cannot be compromised. Its one-metre build provides optimal balance between reach and neat cable management, supporting clear routing in panel systems, on conveyors, or across machine boundaries.
