The IFM EVT044 is a robust sensor/actuator connection cable designed for hygienic and wet environments in food processing, beverage production, and pharmaceutical applications. It features a straight M12 male connector (5-pin coding A) to straight M12 female connector (4-pin coding A), supporting both 4-wire sensor and 5-wire actuator configurations with gold-plated contacts for reliable signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The orange PVC jacket (Ø4.9mm) contains 4x 0.34mm² conductors (22 AWG) suitable for drag chain applications and high-flex environments.
With stainless steel (316L/1.4404) nuts and EPDM sealing, it provides permanent watertight connections even without tools, resisting vibration, shock, and mechanical stress while remaining silicone-free for paint compatibility. Rated for 250VAC/300VDC and 4A continuous current, it operates reliably from -25°C to +100°C (moving), making it ideal for washdown areas, CIP/SIP cleaning, and continuous motion in automated production lines.
