About Wire and Cable

Double Shielded

Shielded

Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion, Interference Shielding, Motors
Continuous Flex
Temperature Range: -40° to 175° F
Insulation:
Outer: Polyurethane Rubber
Inner: Polypropylene Plastic

Connect servocontrollers and servomotors in automated equipment and on assembly lines. This cable withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. The polyurethane rubber insulation resists abrasion and oil. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.

Cable with power wires sends electricity to run a servomotor.

Cable with signal wires is also known as feedback cable. It sends and receives signals between a servomotor and a PLC.

Cable with power and signal wires sends data such as positioning information from a servomotor to a controller. It has four power wires and two pairs of signal wires.

Shielded cable has a layer of braid that blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. Double shielded cable has a layer of braid and foil shielding for better protection against signal interference than braid alone. Use it in environments with high signal distortion, such as near transformers, generators, and heavy duty motors.

Bend radius is the point to which the cable will bend without being damaged. It is measured from the center of the bend to the edge of the cable. The smaller the measurement, the tighter the bend.

Siemens-Compatible Servomotor M23 Connectors

4 Pole (Gray Poles Not Wired)

6 Pole

Choose a socket for your Siemens M23 plugs to power servocontrollers and servomotors in automated equipment and on assembly lines. Sockets mate with male plugs that have external housing thread and a clockwise pole layout. Poles are labeled on the face of the socket.

4-pole socket has six holes on the face; two holes are not wired.

Sockets with continuous-flex cables withstand frequent movement, such as in robotics.

Sockets with brake wires stop and hold a motor in a desired position.
