Product Description:

The RKG4200 is an encoder cable manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RKG Encoder Cables series. It carries feedback signals from position transducers to drive controllers so closed-loop axes can maintain accurate speed and position control. The assembly is intended for automated machinery where stable encoder communication is necessary during repetitive motion.

The cable is rated for 5-million bending cycles and supports drag-chain routing, which suits continuously moving machine axes. A dynamic bend radius of 7.5xD reduces mechanical stress during travel, while the static radius of 5xD applies when the cable remains fixed. With a linear mass of 0.100kg/m, it adds little load to carriers, and the adhesion-free matte jacket helps prevent sticking in multilayer chains.

Twin copper pairs have a resistance of 83.0/39.5Ω/km, which helps limit signal attenuation over typical servo-loop lengths. The insulation withstands 300/300V, allowing encoder supply and differential channels to share one compact cordset. The controller end uses an INS0760/C01 plug, and the opposite side uses an RGS1001/C01 circular connector for direct mating with compatible Indramat encoders.

Halogen-free construction helps reduce corrosive gas emission during a fire, and the outer sheath is finished in RAL2003-orange for quick visual identification along energy tracks. Wake Industrial stocks this cable, offers same-day shipping when schedules are tight, and keeps quotations valid for 30 days to simplify purchasing for planned maintenance cycles in automated production environments and repair scheduling tasks.
