Product Description:

The RKL4717 cable is produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the RKL Motor Power Cables series. It is a motor power cable that links drive controllers to moving servo axes in automated machinery, transferring phase current and auxiliary signals through a single assembly. The construction supports deployment inside drag chains so the moving load can travel millions of cycles without disconnecting power or control.

Mechanical endurance is rated at 5 Million bending cycles, enabling continuous reciprocation without conductor fatigue. The power cores use a cross-section of 2.5 mm², supplying current for low-voltage servo drives while limiting resistive loss. An overall diameter of 14.8 mm defines clamp sizing and establishes a fixed bend radius of 5 × D. Phase insulation withstands up to 300/500 V, complying with IEC low-voltage equipment classes. A PUR (Adhesion-Free, Matte) outer jacket provides oil resistance, abrasion protection, and low sliding friction along plastic or metal guide links.

The sheath color specified as RAL 2003 (Orange) aids quick visual tracing during maintenance. Inside the jacket there are 4 control conductors that carry brake or feedback signals, each sized at 1.0 mm² and rated for 300/300 V control potential. Under dynamic motion the cable must observe a minimum bend radius of 7.5 × D to avoid stressing the insulation layers. Because the assembly is approved for drag-chain routing, installers can position it alongside data and pneumatic lines as long as the flexible and fixed bend limits, material properties, and voltage classes are maintained.
