Product Description:
The RKL4496 cable is supplied by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the RKL Motor Power Cables series and is intended to link IndraDrive controllers to synchronous motors in energy-chain installations. Its design supports three-phase and protective-earth conductors so that servo axes can be powered while the cable endures the constant movement imposed by modern machine tools and handling systems.
The polymer blend and stranding format allow the cable to survive 5,000,000 flex cycles inside a drag chain without conductor fatigue. Current is carried through an INK0605 bulk construction whose copper conductors exhibit a resistance of only 1.91 Ω/km at 20 °C, limiting line losses over long runs. External abrasion and cutting forces are resisted by a PUR (orange RAL 2003) jacket that is oil-resistant and halogen-free for safer plant environments. When mounted in a fixed routing tray, the conductors may reach a core temperature of +90 °C, enabling higher continuous current compared with PVC-sheathed alternatives.
An overall diameter of 22.2 mm balances compact routing with sufficient copper cross-section, while the 4x10.0 mm² power core arrangement separates phases from the green-yellow earth to minimise crosstalk. In continuous motion the sheath may curve down to a minimum radius of 7.5xD, ensuring mechanical integrity when the chain articulates at tight pitch angles. Connection hardware is standardised: the motor side terminates to an RLK0006 plug and the controller side to an RLS0721/K10 coupler, simplifying field replacement.
Wake Industrial keeps the RKL4496 in stock, can arrange same-day shipping for urgent orders, and maintains written quotations for 30 days to support budget approval cycles.
