ZK1090-3131-1100
by Beckhoff
The Beckhoff ZK1090-3131-1100 is a high-performance EtherCAT cable designed for industrial automation within the distinguished ZK Motor Cables series. Constructed from durable PUR (Polyurethane) material and featuring an outer diameter of 5.4 mm ± 0.3 mm, this cable is optimized for drag-chain applications where flexibility and reliability are critical. Its primary function is to provide robust, interference-free data transmission in harsh environments, ensuring seamless Ethernet communication for machine control and motion systems.
With a conductor gauge of AWG26 (1 x 4 x 0.14 mm²) and a shielded design boasting 90% tinned copper braid coverage, the ZK1090-3131-1100 delivers stable signal integrity even under high electromagnetic stress. The cable supports accelerations up to 10 m/s² and speeds to 15 m/s, achieving a life cycle of up to 20 million bending operations. Its green polyurethane jacket resists oil, acid, and solvents per DIN standards, and the polypropylene insulation ensures long-term durability under continuous movement. Operating temperatures range from -40 °C to +80 °C, making it suitable for a wide spectrum of industrial scenarios.
The cable terminates in an M8, plug, straight, male, 4-pin, A-coded connector rated at 63 V and 4 A (40 °C), with connector insulation resistance ≥100 GΩ per IEC 60512. Available in lengths up to 50 meters, this product complies with CE and RoHS directives and meets stringent DIN requirements for mechanical and chemical resistance. The ZK1090-3131-1100’s combination of flexibility, chemical resilience, and high data throughput provides significant benefits in automated production lines, reducing downtime and enhancing system efficiency in demanding industrial applications.
