Overview

The Mencom MDC-4MFP-3M-B is a 4-pole Micro-DC (M12) cordset featuring a male straight connector on one end and a female straight connector on the other. Rated for 300V and 4A, this cordset is constructed with a 3-meter PVC jacket, offering reliable signal and power transmission in industrial environments. The nickel-plated brass housing ensures corrosion resistance and durability, while the M12 coupling nut and single keyway provide secure, vibration-resistant connections. Designed for plug-and-play integration, the MDC-4MFP-3M-B reduces installation time and complexity. The 4-conductor configuration (22AWG) supports diverse applications, including automation, robotics, and sensor networks. The cable features industry-standard PVC insulation, rated for operation from -40°C to +105°C, with a 5mm outer diameter. The color-coded conductors (Brown, White, Blue, Black) simplify wiring and identification. Ideal for connecting field devices, control panels, or machinery, this cordset is part of Mencom’s MDC series, known for its reliability and performance in demanding industrial settings. The IP69 rating ensures protection against high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns, making it suitable for harsh environments.
