This Phoenix Contact 1681897 sensor/actuator cable is designed for industrial automation, offering a robust and reliable connection between sensors, actuators, and control systems. Its key benefit is the durable, halogen-free PUR cable sheath that ensures longevity in demanding environments, though its 5-meter length may require careful planning for specific installations. This shielded, 4-position cable features a free cable end on one side and a right-angled M8 socket on the other, providing flexibility in connecting various automation components.

PUR stands for Polyurethane, a durable plastic material. Halogen-free means the cable sheath does not contain halogens (like chlorine or bromine), which makes it safer in case of fire as it emits less toxic smoke.
This cable is rated for a maximum of 4A current and 30V voltage.
Yes, you can cut the cable to a shorter length. Ensure you properly terminate the cut end to prevent fraying and potential damage. The M8 end remains as is.
The fixed end features a right-angled M8 female socket.
While the PUR sheath offers good environmental resistance, it's primarily designed for industrial indoor applications. Prolonged direct outdoor exposure may degrade the material over time. Check specific environmental ratings if outdoor use is critical.
Typically, cables of this type have color-coded wires. Refer to the product datasheet or the device you are connecting to for the specific pinout and wire color assignments. Phoenix Contact products often include color-coding information.
The operating temperature range for the cable sheath after assembly is -40 to 80°C without vibration, and -25 to 90°C during assembly/handling.
Verify all connections at both the free cable end and the M8 socket. Check the pinout compatibility and ensure the connected devices are powered and functioning correctly. Test continuity of individual conductors using a multimeter.
Inspect the cable for physical damage. Ensure the M8 connector is securely seated. Check for potential sources of electromagnetic interference and ensure the cable's shielding is properly grounded if applicable.
Ensure the M8 socket on the device is clean and free of debris. Check for any damage to the threads or pins on either the cable or the device connector. Do not force the connection.
If the damage is minor and does not expose conductors, it may still function but replacement is recommended for reliability. If conductors are exposed, the cable must be replaced immediately to prevent short circuits and safety hazards.
