Product Description:

Beckhoff manufactures the ZK2000-6162-0020, a motor connection cable that belongs to the ZK Motor Cables series. It is intended for fixed or flexing routing between servo amplifiers and decentralized motor modules in automated lines. The product delivers power and feedback through a single shielded link while tolerating vibration, oil, and machining debris common on factory floors. M12 straight male and female connectors support direct connection, and the combination of a PUR outer jacket and PP wire insulation helps maintain consistent dielectric properties throughout its service life. This arrangement helps keep cable runs compact on machines where motor power and signal transmission must travel together.

The cable has a length of 2.00 m, allowing short point-to-point runs inside compact enclosures without excess slack. Its four conductors are sized at 4 × 0.34 mm² and use a 42 × 0.10 mm strand construction that improves flexibility during repeated motion. Electrical ratings include a maximum operating voltage of 250 V and a continuous load of 4 A at 40°C, matching the power range of small synchronous motors. For rapid axis travel, the design withstands linear accelerations up to 10 m/s². The molded connectors are rated IP65/67, which protects the contact system against splashed coolant and temporary immersion.

Dynamic applications also benefit from a permissible traversal speed of 5 m/s and a mass of only 31 kg/km, so cable carriers experience reduced inertia during fast movement. The metal coupling nut reaches its retention force when tightened to 0.6 Nm, which helps maintain shield continuity without overstressing the thread. Surge protection inside the drive cabinet can reference the cable’s rated impulse voltage of 1.5 kV when selecting arresters. The outer jacket resists chemicals, and the small bend radius helps the cable route through compact moving assemblies. This cable is well suited for packaging machines, gantries, and pick-and-place equipment where repeated movement is expected.
