Overview
The Allen-Bradley 889D-F4NEDM-5 is a Bulletin 889 DC Micro (M12) quick-disconnect cordset engineered for industrial field device connectivity. This 5-meter cordset features a female M12 straight connector on one end and a male M12 straight connector on the other, providing reliable connections for proximity sensors, limit switches, photoelectric sensors, and other discrete field devices commonly found in manufacturing and process automation environments.
Key Features
- 4-Pin DC Micro (M12) Connectors: Female straight on cable end, male straight connector compatible with standard M12 receptacles
- Red PVC Jacket: Unshielded 18 AWG cable with PVC insulation; red color identifies safety-critical circuit applications per industry convention
- 5-Meter Length: Sufficient cable run for field device placement away from control panel or enclosure
- Overmolded Design: Molded connector bodies ensure durability and environmental sealing for industrial shop floor conditions
- Series B Certification: Factory-tested and sealed new-in-box condition guarantees function out of the package
