Product Description

The model ZK1090-3131-1001 is designed by Beckhoff. A manufacturer known for industrial automation and motion control solutions. This cable is used for high speed Ethernet communication in industrial automation settings.

The ZK1090-3131-1001 EtherCAT cable is designed with a robust conductor construction and utilizes 19 strands of 0.1 mm tinned copper wires which enhances its flexibility and durability. This cable has an external diameter of 5.4 mm with a possible variance of ±0.3 mm to account for manufacturing precision. It operates under a rated voltage of 30 V and includes shielding that provides an attenuation level of at least 43 dB effectively minimizing electromagnetic interference. The insulation resistance stands at a reliable ≥ 150 MΩ per kilometer that ensures excellent insulation over extended distances. The cable’s design specifications include a mutual capacitance of 51 pF per meter at a testing frequency of 1 kHz alongside a characteristic impedance of 100 Ω with an acceptable variation of ±15 Ω at 100 MHz.

The ZK1090 series cable is designed for industrial use with excellent resistance to oil, acid and solvents complying with DIN EN 60811-404 standards. It is halogen free, RoHS compliant and CFC free. The cable’s jacket is made of durable polyurethane (PUR) with wire insulation made of polypropylene. This cable offers a dielectric strength rated at 1000 volts DC and 700 volts AC that ensures robust insulation for secure and stable electrical performance under varied voltage conditions. It supports a signal propagation delay of 5.55 nanoseconds per meter for precise signal timing and minimal transmission lag. The cable's cross sectional area measures 4 x 0.14 mm² corresponding to AWG 26 which provides sufficient capacity for moderate current flow and signal integrity.
