Product Description:

The MKE116B-024-NP1-KN is a synchronous servo motor produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the MKE Synchronous Motors series. Designed as a drive element in automated machinery located in hazardous atmospheres, it converts electrical energy into precisely controlled rotation for actuators, conveyors, and positioning modules where ignition risk must be minimized. It satisfies mechanical clearances and temperature limits required for hazardous locations. Stable torque production also helps the motor handle repeated starts, stops, and position corrections in enclosed industrial systems.

Its connection hardware is located on the top of the stator housing, so power and feedback cables can be routed upward without bending radii that threaten insulation. Inside the cast terminal enclosure, a terminal box accommodates screw-clamp blocks and provides a rigid interface for armored conduit. This arrangement keeps field wiring contained in a protected space and supports orderly cable routing where side clearance is limited. A factory-mounted holding brake is integrated; this electrically released device clamps the shaft when power is removed, preventing load drift on vertical axes. The motor carries winding code 024, which corresponds to electrical values used by the drive controller for current limiting and response tuning. Mechanical coupling is handled through a shaft with keyway, permitting positive torque transfer to pulleys or gear sets without slippage.

As a servo motor intended for potentially explosive areas, the enclosure and clearances satisfy ignition protection rules while maintaining dynamic response. The keyed interface follows the DIN 6885 keyway profile, allowing standard hubs to mount without additional machining. A shaft seal sits between the bearing and ambient environment, blocking oil egress and the ingress of dust that could affect surface temperature behavior. Consistent material selection and documentation help support certification of complete drive trains for Zone-rated installations. The sealed shaft area also helps preserve bearing condition in dusty process environments.
