Product Description:

The MKE037B-144-KP0-BENN is a servo motor manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the MKE Synchronous Motors series. It is intended for potentially explosive areas and supplies precise torque to machinery used in hazardous zones where flammable gases or dust may be present. When paired with compatible drives and position controllers, the motor supports controlled starting, stopping, and speed regulation in enclosed industrial processes. This makes it suitable for equipment such as conveyors, mixers, and similar motion systems that must operate with consistent accuracy in classified areas.

The motor operates reliably in ambient temperatures from 0...+40 °C. Class 155 (F) insulation allows the windings to withstand elevated internal temperatures during continuous operation. An enclosure rating of IP 65 helps keep dust and low-pressure water jets away from internal parts, which reduces contamination around the active components. All service conductors terminate in a terminal box fixed to the stator housing, which supports orderly cable entry in industrial installations. The electromagnetic layout identified by winding code 144 establishes the motor’s electrical behavior so matched inverters can supply appropriate current and speed control.

The cable interface faces the B-side, which can help keep routing clear on the opposite end of the machine. Torque is transmitted through a shaft with keyway, and the slot follows the DIN 6885 keyway standard for use with common couplings and transmission components. The motor is built to meet ATEX requirements for hazardous locations, and a shaft seal helps limit vapor migration along the journal. The unit is supplied without a holding brake, so any stationary load must be retained by external hardware or by drive torque while power remains applied.
