Eaton Crouse-Hinds DM4C2ME040M Cordset - IP68, 4A
Part Number: DM4C2ME040M
Quick Summary
DM4C2ME040M LynxPOWER Micro-Mini cordset delivers DC power connections for compact industrial automation enclosures. In tight panels and harsh environments, finding a durable, IP-rated cordset that fits four-pole DC needs can be challenging. This cordset meets IEC NEC/CEC standards, carries IP68 ingress protection, and aligns with NEMA ratings for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. Built for reliability and ease of integration, it features #22 AWG conductors, a 4 m cable, and a female straight plug with internal thread and pigtail to streamline installation and maintenance. Additionally, the compact form factor reduces panel footprint while maintaining robust mating and environmental sealing. Therefore it is well-suited for machine builders deploying LynxPOWER connectivity in conveyors, robotics, and process automation.

FAQs
To install DM4C2ME040M, ensure the panel is within ordinary/non-hazardous locations and meets IP68 ingress protection requirements. Mount the cordset so the female straight plug aligns with the mating connector, tighten the internal-thread collar, and route the 4 m #22 AWG cable to the power distribution points. Verify four-pole alignment and secure pigtail connections to minimize vibration-induced wear. This keeps the system compact and maintains reliable DC power delivery.
The DM4C2ME040M is rated for 4 A and 300 Vdc across four poles. This supports direct DC power distribution to compact automation devices without intermediate splices, reducing fault points and improving uptime. The 4 m cable length provides flexibility in panel layouts while maintaining conductor integrity for consistent performance in typical industrial environments.
Yes. The product is designed for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and carries IP68 ingress protection, supporting washdown and dust resistance. It also complies with IEC NEC/CEC standards and NEMA ratings suitable for Grade 1–6P scenarios. This makes it a versatile choice for general manufacturing, packaging lines, and routine automation equipment without special hazardous-location requirements.
The DM4C2ME040M adheres to IEC NEC/CEC standards and carries IP68 protection. It also aligns with NEMA ratings of 1, 3, 4, 13, and 6P, and is intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. These certifications support regulatory compliance across multiple regions and simplify procurement for global automation projects.
The four-pole, passive connection with a zinc housing exposes fewer field components prone to wear, reducing maintenance frequency. The IP68 seal and compact 4 m cable length lower splice count and installation time, delivering quicker commissioning and longer mean time between outages. Overall, the DM4C2ME040M lowers total cost of ownership for LynxPOWER-based automation lines.
