DM12CAB-8-5 M12 Cable, 8 pin, for Smart Sensors, Transmitters, Dual RTD

Supported Applications

The Omega DM12CAB series consists of dual M12 extension cables designed to connect transmitters or sensors, such as OMEGA™ ZW Series and Smart Sensors, to process instrumentation. These patch cords facilitate signal transmission for applications requiring 8-pin connectivity.

Operating Conditions & Performance

The series is rated for a dynamic temperature range of -25 to 105°C (-13 to 221°F) and a static temperature range of -40 to 105°C (-40 to 221°F). The cables feature PVC insulation with an overall jacket diameter of 4.8 mm (0.20"). Electrical specifications include a voltage rating of 300V and an insulation resistance of 10 MΩ/KM at 20°C.

Configuration Options

The DM12CAB series is configurable across several dimensions to accommodate specific installation geometries. Each cable contains 7 conductors plus a drain wire, terminated with 8-pin M12 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts and nickel-plated zinc alloy nuts.

Lengths

• 1 m (3.3')
• 3 m (9.8')
• 5 m (16.4')

Connector Orientation

Cables are available with straight or right-angle terminations on both ends.

Conductor Configuration

• Pins 1–7: Signal conductors (Black, Brown, Red, Orange, Green, Blue, Violet)
• Pin 8 / Drain: Shielding with drain wire assembly

Certifications

The series carries UL and RoHS approvals.

Key Product Differences

Variants within the DM12CAB family are distinguished by cable length and connector angle. The model number follows the format DM12CAB--, where lengths correspond to 1, 3, or 5 meters, and the suffix "RA" denotes right-angle connectors (e.g., DM12CAB-8-3-RA). Models without the RA suffix feature straight M12 connectors.
