ZK4511-0000/020-0250

The Beckhoff ZK4511-0000/020-0250 motor cable delivers a high-performance connection solution within the ZK Motor Cables series, designed for industrial automation environments requiring reliable power and signal transmission. This cable features a robust metal body construction with M23 plug and socket connectors in a 17-pin configuration, ensuring precise mating and high contact integrity. A green PVC jacket provides environmental protection against moisture, abrasion, and chemical exposure, while the crimp connection terminations guarantee secure and low-resistance contacts. Its optimized design supports simultaneous motor power delivery and control signal communication, making it an ideal choice for modern machine installations that demand both durability and high data integrity.

Detailed technical specifications encompass critical design attributes to support fixed installations: the cable employs Body Color (head A): metal and Body Color (head B): metal housings, each equipped with an Installation Size (head A): M23 and Installation Size (head B): M23 interface. The Connector Type (head A): plug mates with the Connector Type (head B): socket, accommodating Number Of Positions (head A): 17-pin and Number Of Positions (head B): 17-pin wiring arrangements. The conductors feature a composite cross-section of Cable Cross-section: 7 x 2 x 0.14 mm² + 2 x 0.5 mm², balancing current-carrying capacity and signal fidelity. Both ends utilize a Wire Termination (head A): crimp connection and Wire Termination (head B): crimp connection, ensuring optimal mechanical retention and electrical performance. The Material Jacket: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) composition supports a green color coding for rapid identification on complex cable harnesses.

Operational resilience is achieved through a rugged construction that withstands mechanical stress and exposure to industrial contaminants. The cable’s 17-pin arrangement provides standardized connectivity for multi-conductor motor and sensor applications, reducing wiring complexity on production equipment. Its fixed installation designation addresses applications where permanent, vibration-resistant connections are required, ensuring long-term stability under continuous operation. The green PVC jacket resists oils, solvents, and temperature variations, maintaining insulation integrity and minimizing maintenance downtime in harsh factory environments.

System integration is streamlined for the Beckhoff automation ecosystem, enabling plug-and-play compatibility with servo drives, motor controllers, and I/O modules. The ZK4511-0000/020-0250 cable supports seamless integration in conveyor systems, robotics, CNC machinery, and packaging equipment, providing consistent power and data pathways for high-precision motion control. Its standardized 17-pin M23 interface and crimp termination methodology facilitate rapid assembly and field service, making it a practical solution for high-density, industrial automation installations.
