Product Description:
The Bosch Rexroth Indramat IKO0982 is a fiber-optic signal line supplied within the IKO Fiber Optic Cables series. It is intended for control-cabinet or in-machine routing where electrical noise immunity is required between drives, I/O modules, and sensors. By carrying light rather than current, the cable isolates sensitive electronics from ground loops while fitting the tight internal spaces common in industrial automation hardware. This layout is useful for short optical links inside equipment where conductive wiring could pick up interference.
The transmitting core measures 1000 µm ± 20 µm, so large numerical-aperture connectors can couple light without precision polishing. The core is made of PMMA, a plastic with low attenuation for short to medium cabinet lengths. Continuous dynamic motion is permitted when the path never drops below a bend diameter of >50 mm (360°), which helps prevent microfractures in the optical cladding. The outer protective tube measures 2.2 ± 0.07 mm in diameter, allowing dense cable bundles in wiring ducts, and its polyamide jacket resists cutting oils. The materials tolerate an ambient range of -20 to +70 °C without signal loss, and the glass-free construction withstands a pulling force of <100 N during handling.
The cable has a service life of >8000 cycles, 90°, R20 mm, 2 N, allowing repeated motion before optical degradation appears. During temporary routing, the cable can flex to a bend diameter of >30 mm (360°) and still maintain link integrity. Even when clamped under machine panels, it withstands a surface load of 450 N/cm (60 sec.) up to 1250 loads, which resists localized squeezing from cable separators. Additional limits include connector pull strength below 50 N, momentary tensile loads under 150 N, and safe storage between -40 and +85 °C.
