Sick YF2A15 Series Sensor Actuator Cable, 5m Cable Length, Grey Jacket - YF2A15-050VB5XLEAX / 2096240


This sensor actuator cable provides a robust connection between M12-equipped sensors and control systems in industrial environments. It is intended for general sensor/actuator signalling and offers a flexible length option for machinery and installation layouts where a female M12 connector to unterminated flying leads is required.

Features & Benefits


• Five conductors delivering up to 4A continuous current capacity
• PVC outer sheath for chemical-zone suitability and handling
• Rated for maximum reference voltage of 125V for actuator circuits
• IP65 IP66K IP67 protection enabling washdown and harsh environments
• Flexible operation down to −5 °C for dynamic installations
• Tightening torque 0.6 N·m for secure M12 screw connections

Applications


• Suitable for connecting proximity sensors to control cabinets in automation
• Ideal for actuator wiring in factory assembly lines requiring washdown
• used with discrete I/O modules where unterminated leads permit custom terminations
• Can be used for sensor retrofits needing a 5 m cable reach
• Suitable for installations in chemical-exposed zones requiring PVC jacketing

How is the connector secured to equipment panels or sensors?


The female M12 end uses a screw-type locking nut with a 13mm flats width and a specified tightening torque of 0.6 N·m to ensure a firm mechanical and electrical connection.

What are the electrical connection and conductor details for termination?


The cable comprises five unshielded conductors with a 0.34mm² cross-section each, presented as flying leads for direct soldering or Terminal Block connections.

What temperatures can the cable withstand during continuous motion?


For flexible applications the operational range is −5 °C to +80 °C, while stationary installations permit −30 °C to +80 °C, and the connector head is rated to −25 °C to +85 °C.

What mechanical bending limitations should installers observe?


Maintain a bending radius greater than 10x the cable diameter for moving use and greater than 5x the diameter for fixed routing to preserve conductor integrity.

What standards and recognitions relate to this cable’s use in industrial setups?


It carries CE marking and is listed under UL with file reference E335179, indicating suitability for recognised industrial applications.
