Product Description:

The RKG4201T005 is an encoder feedback cable manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RKG Encoder Cables series. It links Indramat drives to position encoders, maintaining signal integrity while moving inside drag chains, robot arms, or other continuously flexing assemblies used in automated production cells.

The construction is rated for 5,000,000 bending cycles, so it handles long-term operation without conductor fatigue. A combined bending and torsion tolerance of +/- 180/30 cm allows tight routing around articulated machine members. With an outer diameter of only 8.5 mm, the cable fits standard chain separators yet contains individual shielded pairs for noise immunity. The supplied length of 5.0 m supports typical controller-to-motor distances, and a minimum dynamic loop of 7.5 × D prevents kinking during high-speed traverses.

Both ends are factory-terminated with an RGS1001 plug on the encoder side and an RGS1002 plug for the control cabinet, eliminating field-crimp errors. A durable sheath of PUR resists cutting fluids, while its Orange color improves visibility in crowded cable trays. The jacket is halogen-free to limit corrosive gas release during a fire, and static installation can follow a radius down to 5 × D for tight panel entry points.

Wake Industrial offers international shipping options, provides a 1-year warranty on every purchase, and can arrange same-day shipping when schedules are urgent.
