Overview
The Turck U0217 VB 80.5-CS19 is a robust multi-port junction box designed for industrial automation and process control. This 8-port actuator and sensor junction box consolidates wiring by combining multiple M12 sensor inputs into a single M23 homerun connection, reducing cable clutter and simplifying integration in control cabinets and field installations.
Key Features
- 8-port M12 eurofast female connectors for sensor/actuator connections
- Side-exit M23 multifast homerun connector (standard wiring configuration)
- Supports up to 16 I/O signals over single homerun cable
- IP67-rated plastic housing for indoor and outdoor use
- Standard 48 VDC supply voltage with 8A capacity
- RoHS compliant construction
Technical Specifications
The VB 80.5-CS19 meets the needs of distributed I/O scenarios where sensor and actuator consolidation is required. Its compact form factor and standard connector interfaces make it ideal for retrofit and new machine build applications.
Typical Applications
- Automated assembly line sensor consolidation
- Packaging machinery actuator/sensor networks
- Industrial process control cabinets
- Machine vision and material handling systems
- Field-mounted junction boxes in harsh environments
