Product Description:
The ZK1090-6161-2300 is a factory-terminated cable from Beckhoff that belongs to the ZK Motor Cables series. Designed for industrial automation panels and machine frames, this assembly routes low-voltage motor supply and sensor lines between a controller and a field device without on-site crimping. Using matched M12 connectors and controlled-impedance conductors, it supports repeatable signal quality for servo feedback, limit switches, and ancillary motor functions.
The conductor set is built on a cross-section of 1 x 4 x 0.14 mm² (AWG26), giving each core sufficient copper area for signal integrity while keeping the bundle slim. A cable rated voltage of 30 V aligns with the extra-low-voltage range used for encoder and Hall sensor feeds. Shield effectiveness is improved by a braiding of tinned copper wires that encloses the twisted quad and drains electromagnetic interference to ground. The balanced pair maintains a characteristic impedance of 100 Ω ±15 Ω, making the assembly suitable for high-speed differential protocols. Interface identification uses a D-coded keyway, and both ends terminate in two straight 4-pin male M12 plugs, which helps prevent pin-mapping errors during installation.
The outer sheath is molded from PUR (Polyurethane), a material selected for abrasion resistance and coolant tolerance in motor compartments. The connection has an IP65/67 rating, so sprayed liquids or temporary submersion do not compromise operation. Under 40 °C ambient conditions, each core can carry up to 4 A at 40°C, which matches the auxiliary load requirements of small motors. Additional electrical and mechanical values include a loop resistance of no more than 260 Ω/km, a signal propagation delay of 4.8 ns/m, and a rated impulse withstand of 2.5 kV. A minimum bending radius of fifteen times the 3.65 mm outer diameter limits strain during routing, and the cable is intended for fixed installation rather than energy-chain movement.
