Overview
The Turck VB2-FSM4.4/2RK4T-0.3/0.3/X0R is a compact splitter cordset from Turck’s EuroFast series. Engineered for quick integration in sensor and automation networks, this 2-branch junction cordset delivers a dual-path connection architecture with a 0.3-meter cable length. The unit features M12 male connectors on the input side and dual M12 female connectors on the output side, making it an ideal bridge between single controller lines and multiple sensor branches.
Key Features
- 2-Branch Configuration — Splits one M12 male input into two independent M12 female outputs for flexible sensor daisy-chaining
- M12 Eurofast Connectors — Front-mounted, threaded M12 connectors with nickel-plated brass coupling for durability and secure connections
- Compact 0.3M Length — Short cordset ideal for junction boxes and compact panel layouts without excess cable slack
- 3-Conductor Configuration — T-barb fittings and standard plug body supporting power and signal distribution
- Gray PVC Jacket — Rated for industrial environments; chemical and abrasion resistant
