Product Description:
The RG2-002ABB cable is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat as part of the RG2 Encoder Cables series. It is an analog encoder cable intended to carry position and velocity feedback signals between Rexroth drives and motion controllers, enabling closed-loop automation on articulated robots, gantries, and other servo-driven machines. By matching the electrical requirements of Indramat encoder interfaces, the cable connects field devices to cabinet-mounted control hardware while maintaining signal integrity over typical machine lengths.
Bending durability reaches 5 million cycles, reflecting suitability for continuously moved cable chains. The design is classified as Basic, indicating standard PUR jacket construction without additional armouring. As a 2nd Generation model, it aligns with the latest RG2 pin assignments for analog feedback devices. Signal conductors follow a 4×2×0.25 mm² + 2×0.5 mm² layout that separates differential pairs from power cores, reducing crosstalk. Minimum insulation resistance is 500 MΩ/km (20 °C), so leakage currents remain low in humid environments. The cable handles analog encoder signals, and both the power and signal pairs share a 300 V rating. A torsion limit of 30 ° per metre allows moderate axis rotation in robotics.
For fixed routing, the minimum bend radius is 4×D; in energy-chain applications the flexible limit widens to 7.5×D to prevent conductor fatigue. The operating range spans −20 °C to +60 °C, allowing installation in chilled warehouse zones and warm production cells. An outer diameter of 8.5 mm simplifies gland sizing while preserving shield coverage. Both signal and power cores are insulated for a continuous line voltage of 300 V, matching typical drive encoder interfaces. The analog cable construction, together with a torsion tolerance of 30 °/m and five-million-cycle flex life, makes the RG2-002ABB suited for standard duty drag-chain routing without additional conduit.
