Product Description:
The IKS4384 belongs to the IKS Encoder Cables series produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It serves as a pre-assembled feedback link between an encoder mounted on a servo motor and motion control hardware such as the DLF01.1M voltage-signal interface module. The cable combines signal pairs and supply conductors in one shielded jacket, which simplifies routing and keeps the connection path consistent through the machine. Because the assembly is delivered with both connectors already attached, it can be integrated into servo layouts without separate shield termination or field crimping at the cable ends. This layout helps preserve encoder signals when the cable is installed near motor leads, switching devices, and other common sources of electrical noise.
The cable uses Encoder Cable With Total Shield construction, indicating shielding that covers the full assembly length and reduces radiated interference. On the motor side it terminates in an M23 12-Pin Socket, while the controller end uses a D-Sub 15-Pin plug, so no field crimping is required during installation. Signal transmission is carried on 3 x (2 x 0.25 mm²) StC conductors, and encoder supply is carried on 2 x 1.0 mm² copper cores to keep voltage drop low during normal operation. The orange PUR outer jacket is halogen-free, and its matte surface resists abrasion in cable carriers and other moving-axis applications. The shield and connector combination helps the feedback channel remain stable when the cable runs through crowded cabinets or alongside moving machine members.
A maximum conductor temperature of 80 °C sets the thermal limit for continuous use and helps protect the insulation system. For fixed routing, the minimum bend radius is 5 x D, while dynamic cable-chain use requires 7.5 x D to reduce conductor fatigue during repeated flexing. These routing limits matter in applications that cycle continuously, because repeated bending places the highest stress near chain exits and clamping points. The cable has an outside diameter of 9.7 mm, which helps it fit common control-cabinet glands and standard carrier separators. The PUR jacket, total shielding, and halogen-free materials support reliable encoder operation in automated equipment exposed to motion, abrasion, oil mist, and similar industrial conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions about IKS4384:
