Product Description:

The 8BCM0016.1034C-0 is a pre-assembled servo drive cable produced by B&R Automation for the 8BC ACOPOS Cables series. It combines four power cores and four signal conductors in one sheath, allowing a single connection between an ACOPOS drive and its motor encoder. By integrating power and feedback paths, the assembly streamlines wiring inside automated packaging, printing, and material-handling machines and supports straightforward installation on the factory floor.

The fixed length of 16 m allows the cable to span that distance without splicing, while the 4×0.75 mm² plus 2×2×0.34 mm² conductor layout helps keep voltage drop and signal integrity within drive limits. Current is carried on strands of Tinned Copper Stranded Wire, a material that improves flexibility and resists corrosion compared with bare copper. At the cabinet end, an 8-Pin Female Series 915 connector mates with standard ACOPOS ports and uses separate contacts for power and data. The insulation system withstands a test potential of 4 kV, providing clearance for typical three-phase drive voltages and surges encountered during switching operations.

A mechanical outer jacket of PUR protects the cores from abrasion and oil while retaining flexibility during continual motion, and its bright Orange color allows easy identification of energized servo lines inside crowded cable trays. When the connector is engaged, the assembly achieves an ingress rating of IP66/67, so washdown or dust exposure will not compromise the interface. Continuous operation is supported up to a wall-mount current of 13 A, matching the 0.75 mm² conductors used for the motor phases. Overall weight is kept to 1.42 kg, limiting dynamic load on cable carriers and moving axes without sacrificing electrical capacity.
