Overview

The Mencom MDCM-4FP-1M-SS is a 4-pole Micro-DC (MDC) cordset engineered for robust signal and power transmission within industrial automation and control applications. This particular configuration features a female straight connector, ensuring a direct and secure connection. The coupling nut is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, offering enhanced durability and longevity in demanding environments. A single keyway is integrated into the connector design to guarantee precise, misalignment-free mating, preventing accidental disconnections and ensuring optimal performance. The cable assembly comprises a 1-meter length of yellow PVC jacketed cable. This cable is built with 4 x 22 AWG conductors, providing sufficient capacity for power and signal transmission. The cable is shielded, incorporating a foil shield specifically designed to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), thereby preserving signal integrity, which is a critical requirement in electrically noisy industrial settings. This cordset is rated for a maximum voltage of 300V and a current of 4A. It is designed to operate reliably across a wide temperature range, from -40°C to +105°C. Furthermore, it boasts an IP69 rating, signifying its superior protection against dust ingress and high-pressure, high-temperature water jets, making it exceptionally well-suited for harsh and washdown environments. The MDC series connectors are designed for compatibility with standard M12 coupling nuts, facilitating straightforward plug-and-play integration into existing systems. Mencom provides a variety of jacket materials, including PVC, PUR, and TPE, along with different cable lengths, to accommodate a broad spectrum of application needs. The use of a stainless steel coupling nut, as opposed to standard brass, delivers superior resistance to environmental degradation and mechanical stress. SKU: MDCM-4FP-1M-SS.
