FAQs
ML5C4WC120F uses a female straight-plug, internal-thread configuration with pigtail and STOOW cable. When planning installation, ensure panel cutouts accommodate the five-pole connector and that the 12 ft cord length reaches the device without excessive tension. Verify panel environments match IP68 protection expectations and that NEC/CEC IEC standards apply to your region.
Yes. The ML5C4WC120F is IP68 rated and built with a zinc housing to resist moisture and dust ingress. This makes it well-suited for washdown zones, outdoor equipment, and damp industrial environments where reliable power connectivity must endure moisture exposure.
Absolutely. The cordset is rated for 8 A and uses #16 AWG STOOW conductors. This sizing supports common automation loads such as control relays, sensors, small motors, and compact actuators while maintaining flexibility for routing within control panels.
The ML5C4WC120F carries NEC/CEC IEC standards alignment and NEMA ratings 1, 3, 4, 6P, 13, with IP68 ingress protection. These certifications help ensure regulatory compliance for North American and international deployments in ordinary locations.
By standardizing a robust, long-length cordset with a secure internal-thread plug, you reduce field assembly time, minimize maintenance events due to ingress, and lower stock diversity thanks to cross-compatibility within the LynxPOWER ecosystem. The result is faster deployments and lower total cost of ownership across plant networks.
