Description
Pin 1
GND
Brown (BN)
Low-resistance GND connection of the cylinder.
Depending on the current, the GND potential is approx. 0.2 to 0.6V higher than the negative potential at the
M12power connector. Only use this pin if you want to connect an interface that is galvanically isolated from
M12power.
Do not connect to the supply voltage!
Not connected – Signal GND

DC supply voltage
The power cable is used to supply the cylinder with power
from the DC supply voltage (DC PSU).
Connection
Connect the black wire to minus (0V) and the red wire to plus.
The permissible voltage can be found on the type plate.
The brown (BN) wire is to be connected to earth.
