Overview

The Mencom MDC-4MFRP-4M is a 4-pole Micro-DC (M12) cordset designed for industrial signal and power transmission. This cordset features a male straight M12 connector and a female right-angle M12 connector with a nickel-plated brass coupling nut, ensuring reliable mating and corrosion resistance. The 4-meter PVC-jacketed cable is rated for 300V and 4A, with a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. Key specifications include 4 x 18 AWG conductors, a 7.4mm outer diameter, and a single keyway for proper orientation during installation. The yellow PVC jacket provides mechanical protection, flexibility, and resistance to common industrial contaminants. The nickel-plated brass contacts ensure consistent conductivity and long-term reliability. This cordset is ideal for applications requiring 4-pole connectivity, such as sensors, actuators, and control systems in factory automation, process control, and machinery interconnection. The right-angle female connector design helps manage cable routing in space-constrained installations. Mencom offers this cordset in various jacket materials (PVC, PUR, TPE) and mounting styles to meet diverse application needs. Standard cable lengths range from 1 to 15 meters, with custom lengths available upon request.
