8ECH0015.1111A-0
The 8ECH0015.1111A-0 is a high-performance motor cable from B & R Automation in the CM16 Motor Cables series, engineered for demanding industrial automation environments. This robust cable supports a wide Input Voltage range of 200-240 V AC and operates across standard Frequency of 50/60 Hz, delivering a rated power of 1.5 kW at a rated voltage of 1000 V. Designed with panel mounting in mind, it features an Enclosure Rating of IP20 to protect internal conductors from contaminants in control cabinets. The cable’s durable construction and precision engineering ensure reliable performance in both static and dynamic applications. With a total Cable Length of 15 meters and a compact overall dimension of 170 mm x 80 mm x 200 mm (H x W x D), it integrates seamlessly into a variety of system architectures.
Technical capabilities of the 8ECH0015.1111A-0 are extensive and precisely defined. The conductors are insulated with Polypropylene (PP) for excellent dielectric strength and thermal stability. It supports an Output Current of up to 7.5 A per line and is rated for continuous operation between 0°C to 40°C. The cable interfaces via EtherCAT and provides Incremental Encoder feedback, ensuring synchronized communication and precise motion control in servo applications. The lightweight design, weighing only 1.8 kg, reduces mechanical load on moving parts and simplifies cable handling during installation and maintenance.
Operational features and benefits are optimized for industrial use. The bright Orange, similar to RAL 2003 jacket delivers high visibility and complies with EN 60811-2-1 oil resistance standards, enhancing durability in harsh factory environments. The cable withstands a test voltage of 4 kV (wire-to-wire and wire-to-shield), with conductor resistance below 13.3 Ω/km for power lines and under 26 Ω/km for supply lines, while maintaining an insulation resistance of at least 200 MΩ·km. Its robust shielding—tinned copper braiding and foil—provides over 85% coverage, minimizing electromagnetic interference. Rated for up to three million flex cycles, this cable ensures long-term reliability in continuous motion scenarios, reducing downtime and maintenance expenses.
Integration of the 8ECH0015.1111A-0 is straightforward in panel-mount setups thanks to its Panel Mount connector configuration, featuring a 13-pin female Speedtec motor connector (IP66 when mated) and an 8-pin male I/O encoder connector (IP30 when connected). The compact dimensions facilitate installation in tight control cabinets, while the protective IP20 enclosure rating ensures safety and compliance. Ideal for applications in robotics, packaging machinery, and CNC systems, this cable delivers both power transmission and high-fidelity feedback signals. Its combination of mechanical resilience, electrical performance, and standardized interfaces makes it an essential component for advanced industrial automation solutions.
