Overview

Mencom VBC-580-00 is a DIN 43650 Form B (10mm) 3-pole solenoid valve connector designed for reliable, quick-disconnect connections in industrial valve applications. This cordset features a 5-meter black PVC cable (3x18 AWG, 0.26" OD) with a built-in LED and flyback diode for surge protection, ensuring safe operation in 10–50V DC circuits at up to 10A. The connector meets IP65 ingress protection standards, making it suitable for harsh environments where dust and moisture resistance are critical. The ground pin is positioned opposite the cable side for optimized wiring in tight spaces. The body is constructed from TPE for durability, with copper alloy contacts silver-plated for low-resistance conductivity. The polyamide insert and thermoplastic gasket provide structural integrity and environmental sealing. With a temperature range of -25°C to 90°C (-13°F to 194°F), this connector is ideal for solenoid valves, actuators, and other industrial automation components requiring frequent disconnection for maintenance or replacement. The VBC-580-00 is part of Mencom’s Form B solenoid valve connector series, designed to meet the demands of industrial automation systems where reliable, high-current connections are essential. The LED indicator provides visual confirmation of circuit status, while the flyback diode protects against voltage spikes during switching operations. The 3-pole configuration (brown, blue, green/yellow) aligns with standard valve pin assignments, ensuring compatibility with most industrial solenoid valves. The 10mm Form B interface is a widely adopted standard in pneumatic and hydraulic valve systems, making this connector a versatile solution for OEMs and end-users alike.
