Overview
The Allen-Bradley 889D-F8NB-2 is a premium DC Micro quick-disconnect (QD) cordset engineered for demanding industrial automation, motion control, and distributed I/O applications. Part of Allen-Bradley’s Bulletin 889D connection systems, this Series B cordset delivers industry-standard M12 connector compatibility and robust field performance across manufacturing, packaging, and material handling environments.
Key Features
- M12 8-pin quick-disconnect connector for rapid mating and field replacement
- 2-meter overmolded cable with durable PVC jacket
- Straight female connector configuration (F designation)
- Series B revision ensures compatibility with modern Allen-Bradley motion and I/O devices
- New in box condition—factory sealed for complete traceability
- Compact form factor ideal for tight panel layouts and machine-mounted installations
Technical Specifications
The cordset is designed to meet IEC 61076-2-104 standards for M12 DC Micro connectors. It features overmolded connectors bonded directly to the cable jacket, ensuring seal integrity and reducing maintenance downtime. The cable is suitable for both fixed and flex-duty applications within rated temperature and environmental limits.
Typical Applications
- DC-powered servo motor feedback and encoder connections
- Distributed I/O modules and sensor arrays in modular automation systems
