It connects the drive's safety circuit to the motor or external safety relay via M8 male and female connectors, carrying the two-channel STO signal that meets IEC 61800-5-2 — the functional safety standard for adjustable-speed drive systems. The 4 x 0.34 mm² conductors handle the dual-channel safety loop without voltage drop over the full 10 m run. IEC 61800-5-2 compliance means this cordset is rated for use in safety-related drive systems up to SIL 3 / PL e — it's not just a generic M8 cable. The 10 m length is the maximum practical run for a two-channel STO loop without signal degradation; if your cabinet-to-motor distance exceeds that, you'd need a safety relay with a longer reach or a different connector scheme. The M8 male-to-female termination locks directly to the Lexium 32i drive's STO port and the motor feedback connector — no adapter, no field wiring of the safety circuit. The 4 x 0.34 mm² conductor cross-section is sized for the low-current safety loop (typically 10–20 mA per channel) and keeps the cable flexible enough for tight cable-carrier routing inside a machine frame. It's not a power cable — don't use it for motor phases or brake wiring. ## Deployment Context In a typical machine cell, this cordset runs from the Lexium 32i drive (mounted in the control cabinet) to the motor connector on the machine frame. The M8 connectors are IP67-rated when mated, so the cordset can pass through a gland plate into a washdown zone — but the drive end stays inside the cabinet. The 10 m length gives enough slack for a cable carrier on a moving gantry or a rotary table.","metaTitle":"Schneider VW3M94CR10 Lexium 32i STO Cordset, 10 m, M8, IEC 6","metaDescription":"VW3M94CR10 STO cordset for Lexium 32i drives. 10 m cable, 4 x 0.34 mm², M8 male-to-female connectors.

Submit a request for quote (RFQ) to confirm availability and current pricing — no minimum order quantity, no lead-time commitment without a confirmed order."},{"question":"What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to VW3M94CR10?","answer":"There is no pin-compatible alternative within the Lexium 32i range — the M8 connector pinout and 4 x 0.34 mm² conductor count are specific to the STO safety circuit. A shorter or longer cordset (e.g., VW3M94CR05 at 5 m or VW3M94CR15 at 15 m) uses the same connector and conductor spec but changes the cable length. Stick with the exact VW3M94CR10 for a 10 m run to avoid a safety-circuit mismatch."},{"question":"What is VW3M94CR10's listed standard (IEC 61800-5-2)?","answer":"The VW3M94CR10 complies with IEC 61800-5-2, the international functional safety standard for adjustable-speed electrical power drive systems. This certifies the cordset for use in STO safety circuits up to SIL 3 / PL e, ensuring the drive can safely remove torque from the motor when the safety signal is interrupted."},{"question":"What is VW3M94CR10's cable length?","answer":"The VW3M94CR10 has a 10 m cable length, measured from M8 male plug to M8 female receptacle.
