Product Description:
The RKL4316 is a flexible motor power cable produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKL Motor Power Cables series. Designed for installation in energy chains and moving machine axes, this cable supplies three-phase power and protective earth to compatible Indramat servomotors while carrying auxiliary control pairs. In automated production cells it bridges the drive cabinet and the motor, maintaining signal integrity under constant motion and high acceleration.
The cable’s mechanical profile supports repetitive motion applications. A dynamic bending radius of 7.5xD limits the stress imposed on conductors when the carrier chain articulates. This radius, together with a tested endurance of 5 million bending cycles, makes the RKL4316 suitable for twenty-four-hour duty on pick-and-place gantries and palletizers. High-speed positioning is also accommodated; the assembly can withstand accelerations up to 10 m/s² and continuous travel velocities reaching 5 m/s, so the insulation will not fatigue when axes ramp quickly. Despite these demands, the overall diameter remains 17.0 mm, allowing dense packing of multiple cables within narrow chain cross-sections.
Electrical parameters complement the dynamic rating. Conductor resistance is 4.95 Ohm/km, a value that keeps voltage drop low over extended runs typical of large assembly lines. The power core comprises 3x4.0 mm² + PE 4.0 mm², giving symmetrical phase conductors and a dedicated protective earth for compliant leak-current paths. Two shielded auxiliary pairs, sized 2x1.0 mm² + 2x1.5 mm², are integrated for temperature sensors or holding-brake control, reducing separate harnessing. Termination at the motor side is achieved with connector RLS1201/C04, matched at the drive end by the RLS1202/C04 plug, so installation is plug-and-play. A PUR jacket with a matt, adhesion-free surface resists oils and weld spatter, while the static bending radius of 5xD simplifies fixed-routing between chain and control cabinet.
