1405846

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1405846 is a sensor/actuator cable from the SAC series, specifically configured as SAC-8P-M12MS-M12FR BK//. It features an 8-position (8P) configuration with M12 male straight connector on one end and M12 female right-angle connector on the other. The cable construction utilizes halogen-free black PUR material, offering durability for industrial environments. Key electrical ratings include UL AWM Style 20549 / 10493 compliance at 80°C and 300 V. The cable weight is specified at 46 kg/km. This double-ended mating cordset is designed for reliable signal and power transmission in automation applications.

Feature Summary

• Constructed with halogen-free black PUR cable material for enhanced environmental resistance
• Features an 8-position M12 connector interface with mixed straight and right-angle orientations
• Complies with UL AWM standards for thermal and voltage performance

Applications

• Industrial automation sensor connections
• Actuator signal transmission
• Control cabinet wiring

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix configuration when ordering, as Phoenix Contact offers customizable lengths and connector variants within the 1405846 series. Confirm that the M12 MS to M12 FR BK combination matches your specific panel and device port requirements. Ensure compatibility with existing I/O modules and check if shielded versions are required for noise-sensitive environments, as this specific part is unshielded.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed-length, pre-assembled M12 solution is needed between a straight male port and a right-angle female receptacle. The PUR jacket makes it suitable for demanding factory floors where oil or mechanical stress may affect standard PVC cables. Consider the 8-position count to ensure sufficient channels for your specific data or power lines without requiring multi-cable assemblies.

Part Context

The 1405846 belongs to Phoenix Contact's SAC (Sensor/Actuator Cable) product line, which provides standardized, ready-to-use cabling solutions. These cables simplify installation by eliminating the need for field termination of M12 connectors. The series is widely used in PLC-based control systems and distributed I/O architectures, ensuring consistent connectivity across various industrial machinery platforms.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other SAC-8P-M12MS-M12FR variants with different length suffixes (e.g., 1405846/...). For identical specifications but different packaging or minor manufacturing updates, verify the current datasheet revision. No cross-brand direct replacements are officially confirmed; alternative M12 cables must be manually matched for pinout, voltage rating, and jacket material.
