Product Description:

The RL2-005CBB motor power cable is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat and belongs to the RL2 Motor Power Cables series within the Rexroth Cable product group. Intended for factory automation, it provides a direct connection between second-generation MS2x servo motors and IndraDrive controllers, transmitting phase current and protective earth without intermediate junctions. The basic cable design minimizes installation steps while maintaining the electrical integrity required for closed-loop motion tasks such as gantry positioning and pick-and-place operation. Its direct routing also reduces the number of connection points that must be accommodated inside the machine.

The conductor set has a 4 × 1.0 mm² + 4 × 0.75 mm² layout, providing separate cores for brake or sensor circuits alongside the main power conductors. A factory-crimped M17 power connector mates with the motor, while the opposite end is supplied unterminated for routing through a drive-side gland plate without an adapter box. Mechanical service life is rated at 5,000,000 flex cycles, supporting repeated movement in cable tracks and other continuously moving machine assemblies. A dynamic bending radius of 7.5 × D helps prevent conductor fatigue during this movement. The flexible outer jacket resists oil commonly found around industrial machinery while protecting the insulated conductors from routine abrasion.

During stationary routing inside control cabinets, a minimum bending radius of 5 × D permits tighter panel layouts than moving applications allow. The cable can operate at temperatures as low as -30 °C during cold starts and as high as 80 °C in sustained ambient heat, allowing use in freezer zones and near warm drive equipment. Reels should remain dry during long-term storage to protect the jacket and connector materials from moisture exposure. When paired with an IndraDrive inverter, the assembly supports MS2x motors equipped with Plug D coding, maintaining the required electrical pinout and shielding arrangement. The unterminated drive end can be routed to the appropriate controller terminals after it passes through the selected gland plate.
