ZK4500-0003-0090

The ZK4500-0003-0090 motor connection cable from Beckhoff forms a critical component of the ZK Motor Cables series, delivering industrial-grade reliability for high-demand automation systems. This robust cable is designed for fixed installation applications and features a wide wire cross-section range of AWG24 ... AWG8 (0.2 mm² ... 10 mm²) to accommodate varied power requirements. Its outer construction is protected by a durable PVC (polyvinyl chloride) jacket colored Orange, while the inner Body Color remains a matte Black, similar to RAL 9011 for easy visual identification in complex wiring looms. The cable supports an Installation Size (head A) of M23 and an Installation Size (head C) pitch dimension of 3.50 mm, ensuring compatibility with standard motor connectors.

Featuring precision-engineered connectors, the cable’s Connector Type (head C) is a Plug housing a 5-pin arrangement with Female Contact Type (head C) contacts to guarantee secure signal and power transmission. The Cross-section (power) conductor measures 1.50 mm² (approx. AWG16), while the Cross-section (signal) conductor is 0.75 mm² (approx. AWG18), enabling reliable separation of power and control lines. Maximum flexibility is provided by the Max. Wire Cross-section (head C) range of AWG28 ... AWG14 (0.2 mm² ... 1.5 mm²) and an overall Wire Cross-section capacity of AWG24 ... AWG8 (0.2 mm² ... 10 mm²). All conductors terminate in a robust Clamping yoke connection (Wire Termination (head C)), eliminating the need for additional ferrules and reducing installation time.

Operationally, this cable excels in harsh industrial environments thanks to its chemically resistant Material Jacket and protective insulation. The high-quality PVC sheath withstands abrasion, oils, and moderate mechanical stress, maintaining integrity over extended service periods. Its Body Color contrast enhances visual routing and troubleshooting within crowded cable trays. Designed for Fixed installation, the cable’s construction prevents unwanted flex fatigue and maintains consistent electrical performance, minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.

Integration into automation architectures is seamless: the M23 head A interface mates with a broad range of Beckhoff motor and drive systems, while the 3.50 mm pitch head C fits standard control cabinets and junction boxes. The five-pin configuration supports combined power and control wiring, streamlining cable runs and simplifying panel layouts. Ideal for applications in robotics, machine tools, packaging, and material handling systems, the ZK4500-0003-0090 cable ensures dependable connectivity across diverse industrial automation scenarios.
