Product Description:

The RKG0024 encoder lead is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKG Encoder Cables series. This pre-assembled cable links motor encoder ports to drive controllers, transmitting position feedback and sensor supply signals in automated axes. Its design supports dynamic machine tools and handling systems where flexible drag-chain routing and low signal noise are required.

The cable core is built from INK0720 bulk stock and terminates at both ends with INS0761/L01 connectors housed in a D-Sub 15-Pin shell; internal contacts use Solder joints for vibration-resistant attachment. Three twisted pairs of 0.25 mm² act as control cores, while two 1.0 mm² conductors carry encoder supply power. A tinned copper overall shield surrounds the bundle to block electromagnetic interference. The circular jacket measures 9.7 mm in outside diameter and is extruded from PUR, giving abrasion resistance and coolant tolerance required on machine beds. The assembly follows a static bend radius of 6×D to avoid sheath kinking during fixed routing inside cabinets.

For continuously moving cable tracks, the design withstands 2,000,000 flex cycles and maintains signal integrity when bent repeatedly to a dynamic radius of 10xD. The polyurethane sheath remains pliable up to 80°C, and its Orange (RAL 2003) colour provides quick visual identification in crowded harnesses. Both line ends use the same INS0761/L01 interface, simplifying spare-part stocking. The presence of an overall shield reduces transmitted noise toward adjacent power lines, and the small bend radius helps compact loop formation inside drag chains. Matched conductor gauges ensure correct impedance for encoder channels and sufficient current capacity for sensor power.
