Product Overview

The 1792D-CBFM is a cable assembly from the Allen-Bradley ArmorBlock series. It connects I/O modules to sensors or actuators. This cable supports reliable signal transmission in industrial environments. It is a passive accessory without active electronics. The cable length and connector type match standard ArmorBlock requirements. Use it for quick and secure field wiring.

Application Scenarios

This cable is used in factory automation systems. It connects ArmorBlock I/O modules to limit switches or proximity sensors. It works in conveyor control applications. It suits material handling equipment. It is ideal for assembly line sensor networks. Use it in standard industrial warehouse storage areas. It operates in dry indoor locations. It is compatible with Allen-Bradley ArmorBlock 16-point modules.

Technical Specifications

The cable is a pre-wired assembly with a specific pinout. It uses a female connector on one end. The other end has flying leads or a male connector. The wire gauge supports typical 24V DC signals. The cable length is fixed per order. It has a PVC jacket for basic oil and abrasion resistance. The operating temperature range is 0 to 60 degrees Celsius. The cable meets UL and CE standards. It is not rated for hazardous locations.

Installation & Maintenance Guide

Mount the cable by plugging it into the ArmorBlock module. Tighten the connector screws by hand. Route the cable away from high-voltage lines. Secure the cable with tie wraps every 30 cm. Do not bend the cable past its minimum bend radius. Inspect the connector pins for damage before installation. Replace the cable if the jacket is cut or crushed. Store spare cables in a clean, dry area. No special tools are needed for installation.
