Product Description:
The ZK2000-6162-0005 is a flexible motor cable manufactured by Beckhoff for the ZK Motor Cables series. In servo systems, the line links the drive amplifier to a compact motor, enabling power, signal, and protective ground transmission in a single molded assembly. It supports decentralized, cabinet-free layouts because its pre-terminated M12 connectors allow fast plug-and-play installation on production machines, packaging equipment, or handling gantries.
At a length of 0.50 m, the cable suits short inter-panel jumps and minimizes excess loop storage. During motion, it may be bent down to a radius of 6 × outer diameter, which helps protect the 42 × 0.10 mm stranded conductors from copper fatigue. The cores have a cross-section of 4 × 0.34 mm² (AWG 22), providing a low-resistance path for motor phase and sensor lines while keeping the overall outer diameter at 4.7 mm. Electrical insulation is rated for 250 V continuous operation and supports up to 4 A at 40 °C per conductor. For transient overvoltage events, the dielectric withstand reaches 1.5 kV, preventing flashover when switching inductive loads. Both terminations follow the A-coded M12 pinout with a 4-pin male plug on the drive side and a matching female socket for the motor.
The cable's mechanical limits support carriers and gantries that accelerate up to 10 m/s² and translate at speeds up to 5 m/s without exceeding conductor stress. Threaded coupling rings are tightened to the specified 0.6 Nm nut torque so the A-coded interface remains vibration-safe during these motions. With a weight of 31 kg/km, the assembly adds minimal moving mass, helping servo axes meet responsiveness targets. The 4-pin layout aligns with the male and female contact pairing of the M12 plug and socket, ensuring unambiguous polarity even in confined service spaces.
