Product Description:
The RKG4201T007 flexible encoder cable is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the RKG Encoder Cables series. It is intended for signal transmission between position encoders and drive controllers in industrial automation. By combining shielded control cores with a rugged outer jacket, the cable maintains accurate feedback data in moving axes such as gantry loaders, pick-and-place modules, and linear stages that run inside cable carriers. Its design supports electrical integrity and the mechanical fatigue encountered in continuous-duty motion systems, and it is supplied pre-terminated to shorten installation time.
The cable is rated for 5,000,000 bending cycles, allowing it to follow repetitive carrier paths without conductor breakage. A thermoplastic PUR outer sheath resists coolant splashes and abrasion while keeping the bundle flexible at low temperatures. During motion, the cable may be bent to a dynamic radius of 7.5×D, and a pair of form-fitted strain-relief collars protects it when parked at this limit. For device interfaces, one end is fitted with an RGS1001 angled connector and the opposite end carries an RGS1002 straight plug, enabling direct attachment to Rexroth encoder housings and drive modules without additional adapters.
Signal conductors inside the assembly use a control-wire cross section of 0.25 mm², matching the current and voltage levels used in typical 5 V differential encoder circuits. When routed statically, bends may be set as tight as 5×D because the stranded copper cores are held in concentric layers that limit kinking. The sheath is colored RAL 2003 (orange), making the cable easy to distinguish from power wiring in a crowded cabinet. Approval for drag chain use confirms that the cable is suitable for continuous flexing in moving cable-management systems.
