Product Description:
The RKG0048 is an encoder extension cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKG Encoder Cables series. It is intended to carry incremental or absolute encoder signals from a motor to the corresponding drive controller, maintaining signal integrity over dynamic cable chains frequently found in industrial automation cells.
This model withstands up to 5,000,000 bending cycles, so it suits continuously moving drag-chain installations. A sheath diameter of 9.7 mm balances mechanical strength with routing flexibility, and terminations are factory-fitted: the motor-side uses an M23 17-Pin socket while the control-cabinet end terminates in a shielded D-Sub 15-Pin socket, eliminating field crimping. Power for encoder electronics is carried on four dedicated conductors sized at 4x1.0 mm², giving low voltage drop even on long runs.
Sensing lines are grouped as 3x(2x0.25 mm²)+3x0.25 mm², providing individually twisted pairs plus reference cores to minimize crosstalk. The outer jacket is colored RAL 2003 (orange) for quick identification among servo power leads, and its PUR (matte) composition offers abrasion resistance along with oil and coolant tolerance. Conductor insulation is rated for continuous operation up to 80 °C, allowing deployment beside warm drive components without premature aging.
Wake Industrial offers a 1-year warranty on this cable, can arrange same-day shipping when schedules are tight, and maintains a free chat tool for general questions about type codes or conductor assignments.
