Overview

Mencom VCC-A20-3501 is a high-quality solenoid valve connector cordset designed for reliable quick-disconnect applications in industrial automation. This 3-pole Form C to 5-pole M12 male straight connector combines robust construction with advanced circuitry, featuring an LED indicator with flyback diode for enhanced diagnostics and protection. The 10-meter black PVC cable (4x20 AWG) ensures flexibility and durability in demanding environments, rated for -25°C to 90°C (-13°F to 194°F). The connector body is constructed from black polyamide with copper alloy contacts plated in silver, providing excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance. The IP65-rated design ensures protection against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for harsh industrial conditions. Compatible with 10-50V DC systems, this cordset supports voltages up to 50V with a current rating of 4A, suitable for solenoid valve applications requiring quick installation and maintenance. The universal design allows for worry-free installation in both new systems and maintenance scenarios, with field-wireable options available for custom configurations. Mencom's engineering excellence ensures long-term reliability and compatibility with standard DIN 43650 Form C and M12 (MDC) interfaces. The LED indicator provides visual confirmation of power status, while the flyback diode protects against voltage spikes during switching operations. This product is manufactured in the USA by Mencom Corporation, a trusted name in industrial connectivity solutions.
