Product Description:

The MKE096B-047-GP0-KN servo motor is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the MKE Synchronous Motors series. It is designed for motion tasks in hazardous zones, where it provides controlled rotary power for drives, pumps, and positioning axes without introducing ignition sources. By combining precise electromagnetic torque with explosion-protection construction, the motor is suited for industrial automation equipment that handles flammable gases, solvents, or dust. It works with IndraDrive and other compatible converters to deliver repeatable speed and torque control. The motor is intended for applications that require controlled acceleration, stable running speed, and repeatable torque response during automated operation.

The electrical terminations are oriented on the top of the housing, which simplifies downward cable routing when the motor is mounted on vertical machine frames. Power and feedback conductors terminate inside a terminal box that protects the connections from debris and limits entry points for vapors. Classified as a servo motor for potentially explosive areas, the unit is built to limit surface temperature and avoid sparking parts. It is supplied without a holding brake, so load holding or emergency stopping must be handled by the drive or by an external brake module. This connection arrangement can also help keep wiring paths organized when cables leave the motor from above and turn down along the machine frame.

The output end uses a shaft with a keyway to provide positive coupling to gears or shaft couplings. This profile follows the DIN 6885 keyway standard, allowing compatibility with common drive elements. The keyed shaft arrangement helps prevent rotational slip under changing loads, which is useful when the motor drives pumps, gear stages, or positioning mechanisms. A dedicated shaft seal helps block process liquids or dust from migrating into the front bearing cavity and supports lubricant protection in washdown or solvent-rich surroundings. Electromagnetic behavior is set by winding code 047, which indicates the stator impedance and current rating used by the drive for torque and thermal calculations during continuous operation.
