Festo KMP3-9P-08-5 Connecting Cable

Description

Five-metre connecting cable with an open control-side end

The Festo KMP3-9P-08-5 is a five-metre connecting cable. The field-device side has an angled nine-pin Sub-D socket; the control side is an open cable end. The manufacturer lists ten cores with nine used.

This is a defined connecting-cable reference. A nine-pin connector alone does not establish compatibility with a particular PLC or network protocol. Match the device connection and conductor assignment to the installation.

Cable routing and installation limits

The grey PVC cable uses a 10 × 0.34 mm² conductor arrangement. Its listed current capacity is 3 A at 40 °C, with a nominal 24 V DC application and a 0–30 V DC range.

The minimum bend radius is 30 mm for fixed installation and 75 mm for moving installation. Ambient limits also differ: −25 to +70 °C fixed and −5 to +70 °C moving. IP65 applies when mounted; it should not be transferred to an unmated connector.

About brand
Pneumatic cylinders and valve terminals with the blue Festo logo are found on machines of almost every kind. The company dates from 1925, is based in Esslingen am Neckar, Germany, and makes pneumatic and electric automation components. Seven Star LLC sources and supplies Festo cylinders, valves and valve terminals for machine maintenance and projects in Oman and the GCC.

Festo products listed

Two items show the two halves of a pneumatic circuit. The VTUG is a valve terminal: a manifold that carries a row of directional valves with common air supply and a shared electrical connection. The DSBC-32-100-PPVA-N3 is an ISO standard cylinder. Its type code reads as 32 mm piston diameter and 100 mm stroke, with adjustable end-position cushioning and a piston magnet for position sensing.

Ordering Festo parts: what we need

Festo parts carry both a type code and a numeric part number on the label. Send both when you can; the part number is the shortest route to an exact match. For a cylinder give the full type code as on the listed DSBC example, plus mounting parts and proximity switches if required. For a VTUG valve terminal send the configuration code or a label photo: number of valve positions, valve functions, coil voltage and the electrical connection type all vary from one terminal to the next.
