Overview
The Allen-Bradley 889R-R3ECA-2 is a 2-meter AC micro cordset engineered for secure connections to proximity sensors, limit switches, photoelectric sensors, and other industrial field devices. Featuring a right-angle M12 female connector with dual key design and 3-pin configuration, this cordset delivers reliable signal transmission in harsh industrial environments. The yellow PVC jacket with automotive color coding enables quick field identification, while the braided shield reduces EMI noise.
Key Features
