Eaton AM3C3MG120F LynxPOWER Micro-Mini Cordset - IP68
Part Number: AM3C3MG120F
Quick Summary
AM3C3MG120F cordset provides rugged, reliable power connections for automation panels and control cabinets in harsh industrial environments. Users often struggle with moisture ingress, bulky connectors, or mismatched ratings that slow commissioning and complicate maintenance. This cordset delivers IP68 protection and NEC/CEC IEC compliance, along with NEMA ratings suited for ordinary locations, ensuring safe, compliant operation. Its 12 ft length, #18 AWG conductors, and passive three-pole AC design with dual-key, internal-thread, pigtail configuration streamline installation and reduce wiring errors. For engineers and maintenance teams, this translates to faster setups, lower downtime, and a resilient path to scalable automation. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, it balances performance and cost for everyday industrial applications.

Eaton Specification Sheet - AM3C3MG120F
IP68 protection reduces moisture ingress and water exposure, translating into fewer field failures and longer service intervals in washdown and damp environments. This reliability lowers maintenance costs and minimizes unscheduled downtime during production runs. Application areas include automation panels, robotic cells, and packaging lines that demand rugged sealing and consistent performance in ordinary locations. Long reach and conductor size provide flexible routing and straightforward enclosure installation, reducing the need for adapters and extra wiring. The result is faster commissioning, fewer wiring errors, and improved traceability. Electrical ratings—three-pole AC, 300 Vac, 4 A—support common automation loads like sensors and drives, minimizing over-design and heat buildup while maintaining safe operation in typical duty cycles. Mechanical design with passive connector, internal thread, dual-key, pigtail configuration, and zinc housing offers rugged, vibration-resistant connections and straightforward field replacement. Certification and compliance context—NEC/CEC IEC standards and NEMA ratings (1, 4, 6P, 3, 13) for ordinary locations—facilitate procurement and risk management. Compatibility with LynxPOWER Passive connectors enables rapid deployment and scalable automation growth.

FAQs
AM3C3MG120F uses a female straight plug with internal threading and a pigtail, designed to mate with LynxPOWER Passive connectors. The dual-key feature prevents incorrect orientation, and the 12 ft length accommodates typical panel layouts. When wiring, ensure correct routing to preserve the IP68 seal and avoid sharp bends near the connector to maintain seal integrity.
Key specs include a 4 A amperage rating, 300 Vac voltage rating, three-pole configuration, and #18 AWG conductors over a 12 ft cable. These ratings support common automation devices such as sensors, actuators, and PLC interfaces, providing a balance of performance, thermal management, and cost without overdesign in ordinary locations.
Yes. The cordset carries IP68 protection, enabling sealed operation in washdown and damp environments. It is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, so for explicit washdown zones, ensure enclosure integrity and proper installation practices to maintain sealing performance and regulatory compliance.
The AM3C3MG120F complies with NEC/CEC IEC standards and carries NEMA ratings of 1, 4, 6P, 3, and 13. It is suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and provides IP68 ingress protection. These certifications support regulatory compliance and simplify procurement in regulated industrial settings.
The rugged IP68 sealing, 12 ft length, and simple mechanical design reduce downtime, maintenance, and new-install time. The dual-key, internal-thread, pigtail setup minimizes miswiring and orientation errors, while compatibility with the LynxPOWER ecosystem simplifies spares inventory and future upgrades, delivering predictable maintenance budgets and faster time-to-value for automation projects.
