Product Description:
The RKG0041 cable is a factory-terminated encoder lead produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKG Encoder Cables series. It links the encoder mounted on a synchronous motor or linear stage to the associated drive controller, carrying the position feedback signals required for closed-loop motion control. Because it arrives preassembled with matched plugs, the cable reduces installation time and maintains consistent signal transmission across demanding industrial automation layouts.
The conductors and jacket are rated for 5,000,000 flex cycles, allowing the assembly to travel in energy-chain carriers without premature fatigue. During motion, the cable must maintain a minimum bend radius of 7.5 × D, while stationary routing permits a tighter bend radius of 4 × D. These ratios protect the copper strands from excessive tensile stress during routing and repeated movement. Factory-crimped connectors simplify field wiring: the motor-side plug is the circular INS0753/C01 type, and the control-cabinet end terminates in a rectangular RGS0001/K01 receptacle that connects directly to compatible Rexroth HCS or IndraDrive encoder ports. The cable is identified as the Basic model and uses a halogen-free sheath suitable for standard machine-tool environments. Its completed connector assembly eliminates the need to terminate individual conductors at the installation site.
Signal integrity is maintained across an operating temperature range of -20 °C to 80 °C, allowing the cable to function near motors that radiate moderate heat or inside cooled electrical rooms. During storage, the cable can withstand temperatures as low as -40 °C, helping prevent jacket embrittlement in unheated warehouses. The conductor insulation and shielding braid protect the feedback channels from electrical interference generated by nearby motor and power cables. Molded strain reliefs support the cable near each connector, where repeated movement could otherwise place concentrated stress on the conductors. The assembly has a Ready-Made classification, so no additional field assembly, conductor tinning, or connector potting is required before installation.
