Product Description:

The IKG4009 is a motor power cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the IKG Motor Power Cables series. It is intended to link servo or induction motors to their drives while carrying both power and low-level control signals in a single assembly. The design supports routing through cable carriers and fixed cabinet runs, giving machine builders a unified connection that withstands demanding industrial conditions.

This cable has an outer diameter of 12.0 mm, and its power core is arranged as 4 × 1.0 mm², providing balanced phase loading for motors that use the corresponding conductor size. Two twisted control pairs, arranged as 2 × (2 × 0.75 mm²), allow brake release or temperature sensor lines to follow the power conductors without separate harnesses. The copper strands have a resistance of 19.5 Ω/km, allowing voltage drop to be calculated over long drag-chain routes. Between the conductors and shield, the measured capacitance is 0.6 nF/m, a value that can be considered when selecting output filters or pulse-width modulation edge rates. The cable jacket is orange in accordance with RAL 2003 for quick identification. It is also halogen-free and oil-resistant, making it compatible with lubricants commonly found on plant floors.

The cable supports up to 5,000,000 carrier cycles without conductor breakage. For flexible installation, the minimum bend radius is 7.5 × D, while permanently clamped routing permits a minimum bend radius of 5 × D. In fixed routing, the cable can withstand temperatures up to +90 °C, while moving sections can operate at temperatures up to +80 °C. A jacket made of PUR provides abrasion resistance and maintains suitability for drag-chain use. These properties support installation in robotic axes, conveyors, and packaging lines exposed to repeated movement and electrical noise.
