Lexium MC12 carrier interconnect, what it actually is
The LXMMCBCA00XS100 is a Schneider Electric communication interconnect designed as an accessory for the Lexium MC12 multi carrier system, and it mates with the longstator motor to carry the data link between the moving carrier and the stationary motor winding. It is not a drive, contactor, or power-stage component — it sits in the connection-accessories category alongside the cabling that ties a multi-carrier track together. Supplied as a pack of ten, the interconnect is the field-replaceable link used along the length of a multi-carrier conveyor or linear-motor line, where each section of the track gets its own interconnect and the spare-on-hand question is a pack-count one, not a single-piece question.
Footprint and what it means inside a multi-carrier track
The interconnect measures 3.07 in (78 mm) long, 2.2 in (57 mm) wide, and 0.9 in (23 mm) deep. That footprint is the one a panel builder or track assembler checks against the carrier housing pocket before committing the BOM — these are the dimensions that govern whether the part drops into the standard MC12 connection cavity without a fixture change.
Lifecycle read for the storeroom
Lifecycle status is current on the Schneider Electric record, so the interconnect remains a live part number rather than a phase-out candidate — the line-side question is supply continuity, not last-time-buy urgency. No official successor or cross-reference MPN sits in the ledger, which is the right reading for an active accessory: the part simply continues under its own code. For the MRO shelf, the practical read is that ten pieces ship per set — a working spare set means ordering one pack and binning the rest, rather than tracking ten single-piece SKUs.
