Weidmüller 1004320150 SAIL-M12GM12W-3L1.5T Sensor-Actuator Cable
The Weidmüller 1004320150 SAIL-M12GM12W-3L1.5T is a 1.5 metre assembled M12 sensor-actuator cable that combines 3-pole A-coded connectivity with a straight male connector, an angled female connector, and LED support. It is intended for industrial field wiring where a slightly longer reach than 1 metre is needed, but where a short, tidy machine-side route is still the goal. In compact automation systems, that balance makes 1.5 metre M12 cables a very practical choice.
Technical identity of the product
The Weidmüller 1004320150 belongs to the SAIL M12 sensor-actuator cable range and is described as a 3-pole A-coded M12 / M12 connection line. The left connector is straight and male, while the right connector is a 90° female connector with LED. The product family uses an unshielded design and is described as resistant to welding sparks in the T variant. Those characteristics make it suitable for industrial users looking for a ready-made field cable with reliable geometry and clear installation behavior.
Why the 1.5 metre length is valuable
A 1.5 metre M12 cable is often used when a 1 metre lead feels slightly too tight but a 2 or 3 metre cable would create unnecessary slack. That makes it ideal for compact machines, decentralized I/O points, device interfaces, and grouped sensors mounted near but not directly adjacent to the connection point. The Weidmüller 1004320150 SAIL-M12GM12W-3L1.5T sensor-actuator cable addresses exactly that in-between requirement, which is why this length is often more useful than it first appears.
Why this style of M12 cable is widely used
Preassembled M12 cables are popular because they simplify installation, reduce wiring variability, and support cleaner spare part strategies. The LED-equipped angled female side also helps with status visibility in the field, which can shorten troubleshooting time. Searches for 3-pole M12 cable, M12 LED cable, and Weidmüller sensor cable remain common because machine builders prefer dependable cordsets that arrive ready for installation. The Weidmüller 1004320150 fits comfortably into that market logic.
Applications
This cable is relevant in compact machinery, industrial sensors, conveyor modules, actuator interfaces, packaging equipment, and small automation cells. Its 1.5 metre length gives just enough additional routing freedom to solve many real machine layouts without creating excess cable management effort.
