Product Description:

The RKH0101 hybrid cable is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RKH Hybrid Cables series. The model combines medium-gauge power cores with smaller signal pairs inside a common shield, allowing servo drives and feedback devices to share one line instead of separate runs. By combining these functions, it streamlines wiring inside drag chains, gantries, and compact control cabinets while preserving the EMI performance required in industrial automation cells. It serves as the physical link between IndraDrive power modules and synchronous motors, transferring current, voltage reference, and sensor data during continuous mechanical movement.

The conductor arrangement is [5×2.5 mm² + 5×0.34 mm² + (2×2×0.34 mm²)C]StC, with five power lines, five control cores, and two twisted, shielded signal pairs that help reduce crosstalk. An overall diameter of 16.2 mm keeps the cable compact while still allowing the specified copper cross-sections. The jacket is molded from PUR, giving the cable abrasion resistance and oil tolerance for machine-floor exposure. The minimum bend radius is 5×AD for fixed laying and 10×AD during continuous travel. Internal strain relief and tight braid coverage help the cable remain stable during millions of cycles, making it drag-chain suitable for high-speed linear axes.

In addition to its mechanical profile, the cable meets material and storage requirements that are useful in industrial equipment. Being halogen-free limits the release of corrosive gases during an over-temperature event, and a silicone-free formulation helps prevent paint wetting issues in automotive assembly. Stock can be stored at temperatures down to -30 °C without jacket embrittlement and up to +60 °C without softening. These material characteristics support use in storage areas and production spaces where contamination control and temperature changes matter.
