Connection of motors with preassembled cables
Beckhoff offers preassembled motor and feedback cables for safe, faster and flawless installation of the motors. Beckhoff cables have been tested with regard to the materials, shielding and connectors used. They ensure proper functioning and compliance with statutory regulations such as EMC, UL etc. The use of other cables may lead to unexpected interference and invalidate the warranty.
- Carry out the wiring in accordance with the valid standards and regulations.
- Only use our preassembled shielded cables for the power and feedback connections.
- The shielding should match the specifications in sections 8.4 to 8.10. Incorrectly installed shielding inevitably leads to EMC interference.
- The motor connector and the mating connector of the Beckhoff motor cable is a special version with 5 A current-carrying capacity. The use of other M12 connector can lead to overload.
