Yokogawa KM55-030 3.0m Connector Cable
Product Introduction
The KM55-030 cable from Yokogawa belongs to the FA-M3 series of industrial automation products. Specifically, it serves as a dedicated connection line between a compatible module and a connector terminal block. This 3.0-meter cable is essential for establishing a stable wiring path in control cabinets. Without the correct cable, the terminal block cannot interface with the module. Therefore, selecting the proper length and model is critical for error-free installation.
Technical Specifications
The core function of the KM55-030 is to transmit signals between the FA-M3 module and its associated screw terminal block. Its length is fixed at 3.0 meters. This specific length offers extra reach when routing wires inside a large panel. Moreover, the pin assignment of the screw terminals directly matches the module connector layout. This design eliminates the need for manual pin mapping during replacement or initial setup.
Furthermore, the cable is a passive accessory. It does not contain active electronics or signal conditioning circuits. As a result, it is highly durable and resistant to common electrical noise when installed correctly. The model KM55-030 appears in Yokogawa FA-M3 documentation as a standard option for connector terminal block wiring. For instance, the TA60-0N terminal block requires a separate KM55 series cable for operation.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
Installers must respect the environmental limits to ensure long-term reliability. The operating temperature range is 0 to 55°C. For storage, the acceptable range widens to -20°C to 75°C. Additionally, humidity must remain between 10% and 90% RH without condensation. The surrounding atmosphere should be free of corrosive gases, flammable gases, or heavy dust. These conditions match the specifications of the associated FA-M3 modules.
Installation Guide
Proper installation ensures stable performance and prevents damage. First, verify that the module and terminal block are compatible with the KM55-030 cable. Next, route the 3.0-meter cable through the cabinet without sharp bends or excessive tension. Then, align the connector keys and insert the plug firmly into the module port. Afterward, connect the other end to the terminal block and tighten the screws according to the torque specifications. Finally, check the wiring continuity before powering the system.

FAQ
Q1: What is the main function of the Yokogawa KM55-030?
A: It connects a compatible FA-M3 module to a connector terminal block. The cable carries signals between the module and field wiring.
Q2: Can I use this cable with any terminal block?
A: No. You must verify compatibility. For example, it cannot be used with certain 48-pin modules like F3YP04 or F3NC32.
Q3: What is the exact length of the KM55-030?
A: The suffix "-030" indicates a length of 3.0 meters. This is the longest option in the KM55 cable series.
Q4: Does the terminal block come with this cable?
A: Typically, no. Yokogawa connector terminal blocks usually require the cable to be ordered separately. You must select the correct cable from the list.
Q5: How fast can you ship this item?
A: We ship via Fedex, UPS, and DHL. Delivery time typically ranges from 3 to 7 business days, depending on your location.
