Compact splitter boxes
31 October 2013
Suitable for use in tight spaces, ifm electronic has launched two new ranges of splitter boxes with M8 sockets. All are solidly manufactured and potted with seals rated up to IP68 and mechanical protection to prevent over tightening.
The EBC range includes four and eight-way connections for M8 (to EN61076) with either 3-pin or 4-pin configuration. The splitters are equipped with local LED indication; the user only has to specify the polarity of the input signals. A green LED confirms local power.
The splitters can be supplied with integral 5m or 10m multicore cable for connection back to the panel and will operate between -25 and +80°C. The 4-way versions can be ordered with an M16 connector and plug-in home-run cables.
