Eaton Specification Sheet - ML5C4SC060F
IP68 zinc housing shields internal conductors from moisture, dust, and washdown sprays, delivering durable protection that lowers field failures and maintenance costs in outdoor enclosures, wet plant floors, and harsh manufacturing environments. In real-world applications such as outdoor machinery and process lines, this translates to more reliable connectivity for motors, sensors, and control relays. Five-pole passive configuration with a female straight plug and internal threading provides secure mating and straightforward alignment during panel wiring, reducing vibration-induced loosening and speeding installation on conveyors, robotic cells, and material handling systems. The SOOW cable, 16 AWG, 6 ft length, and 8 A rating balance flexibility with current capacity for control circuits, enabling compact harness runs with predictable thermal performance. Compliance with IEC/NEC/CEC standards and ordinary-location classification ensures regulatory alignment across global sites, shortening qualification time and procurement cycles. A compact footprint (1.93 in length, 1 in width and height) and 0.9 lb weight simplify cabinet design and field upgrades, lowering shipping and installation costs without sacrificing durability or IP68 protection.

FAQs
Install the female straight plug with the internal thread to ensure secure mating. Use appropriate strain relief and tighten the connector to prevent loosening under vibration. confirm IP68 sealing interfaces and ensure the pigtail exits are directed away from potential washdown streams. This approach minimizes ingress paths and preserves the integrity of the five-pole connection.
The ML5C4SC060F is rated for 8 A with #16 AWG SOOW cable and a 6 ft length. These specs support reliable power transmission for control circuits and small motors in non-hazardous locations. The combination of five-pole configuration and passive connector design ensures stable, low-resistance connections suitable for panel-to-device wiring in typical factory automation environments.
Yes. The IP68 rating and robust NEMA considerations make it appropriate for non-hazardous environments in robotics and conveyors. Its compact form factor and secure mating help withstand vibration, while the 6 ft length provides flexible routing in tight panels and machine cells.
The cordset complies with IEC NEC/CEC standards and is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, with IP68 protection and applicable NEMA ratings. This alignment reduces regulatory qualification time, improves cross-border procurement, and supports safe integration into global automation projects.
The durable zinc housing, rugged IP68 protection, and secure five-pole connection minimize field failures and unscheduled downtime. With easier installation and reliable long-term performance, maintenance costs decrease and lifecycle total cost of ownership improves for machines, panels, and assembly lines.
