ABB 3HAC023195-001 GTPU 210 M Cable – 210m Robot Motor Power Cable for IRB 6700/6720 Series

Product Overview

The ABB 3HAC023195-001 GTPU 210 M Cable​ is a heavy-duty motor power cable engineered specifically for ABB Robotics' large-payload IRC5-controlled robot platforms, including the IRB 6700, IRB 6700L, and IRB 6720 series. As part of ABB's GTPU (Ground-Terminated Power Unit) cabling family, this 210-meter variant is designed for long-reach installations where the robot body is positioned at distance from the main control cabinet or floor-mounted servo drive aggregates. The "M" designation confirms the motor-side power function, differentiating it from signal or feedback variants within the same GTPU architecture. Built around a high-purity tinned oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor bundle, the ABB 3HAC023195-001​ delivers stable power transmission under the high inrush and regenerative braking cycles typical of 150–300 kg payload robots. The cable assembly integrates ABB's impedance-matched design for 210 m runs, minimizing voltage drop and ensuring servo drives receive clean, undistorted power even during simultaneous multi-axis acceleration. A double-shield architecture—aluminum foil plus tinned copper braid—provides robust EMC protection in electrically noisy environments such as automotive body shops with medium-frequency spot welders and large inductive loads. The ABB 3HAC023195-001​ is jacketed in orange TPE/PUR composite (RAL 2003, the ABB Robotics standard), rated –40 °C to +90 °C, with abrasion-resistant, oil-resistant, and hydrolysis-resistant properties suitable for both dynamic drag-chain routing and torsional robot-arm dress packs. UL, CSA, CE, and RoHS compliance makes it a globally deployable spare part for OEM replacements and line extensions alike.

Main Features and Advantages

Long-distance power integrity.​ The ABB 3HAC023195-001​ is not a generic 210 m cable cut to length—it is impedance-compensated for the GTPU topology at 210 m, meaning voltage drop and reflected EMI are actively managed in the design. In IRB 6700-class robots where peak axis currents exceed 30 A per motor during simultaneous move-plus-lift cycles, this compensation prevents nuisance servo faults that generic cables would trigger on a 210 m run.

Double-shield EMC architecture.​ Robotic welding cells are among the harshest EMC environments in automation. The ABB 3HAC023195-001​ sandwiches its power cores between an overlapping aluminum Mylar tape and a high-coverage tinned copper braid. This suppresses both conducted and radiated noise from the robot’s own PWM-driven servo outputs and blocks incoming interference from neighboring spot-welders and plasma cutters. Feedback purity at the drive end translates directly into path accuracy and reduced alarm downtime.

Torsion and flex endurance.​ Although 210 m implies a mainly static cabinet-to-floor-run profile, the robot-end segment of the ABB 3HAC023195-001​ still sees repeated flex at the dress-pack entry. ABB’s proprietary stranding pattern and TPE/PUR composite allow the cable to survive millions of bend cycles with a minimum dynamic bend radius of 10× outer diameter, while the PUR outer jacket resists cutting from sharp tray edges, oil mist from machining cells, and coolants common in automotive powertrain lines.

Global compliance and traceability.​ Every ABB 3HAC023195-001​ ships with ABB’s QR-coded label and is UL 1581 / CSA / CE tested, making it admissible in North American, European, and APAC automotive plants without additional site-level cable requalification. The RoHS-compliant jacketing also future-proofs the asset against tightening EU substance regulations during a robot’s 15–20 year service life.

 

Application Field

The ABB 3HAC023195-001​ is purpose-built for heavy-payload robotic applications where the IRC5 controller cabinet cannot be mounted adjacent to the robot base. The primary deployment is on IRB 6700 (150–300 kg payload) and IRB 6720 platforms in automotive body-in-white shops, where a single 210 m GTPU motor cable run may link a floor-mounted drive cabinet to a suspended or pedestal-mounted robot serving a 30+ meter transfer press line. In these layouts, the ABB 3HAC023195-001​ carries motor power from the GTPU terminal block out to the robot’s upper-arm junction, with the 210 m length absorbing the distance between cell-edge cabinets and pit-mounted or overhead robot positions.

Beyond automotive, the ABB 3HAC023195-001​ is specified in foundry and heavy casting lines (IRB 6700L extra-reach variants) where the robot reaches deep into die-casting machines and the control enclosure must stay outside the high-heat zone—again driving cable runs well beyond 100 m. The –40 °C lower limit also qualifies the ABB 3HAC023195-001​ for cold-store logistics automation and outdoor gantry-mounted robot cells in northern climates, where standard PVC-jacketed cables would crack. In all cases, the cable solves the specific problem of “long-reach GTPU power delivery without servo instability,” which generic 600 V trays cables cannot guarantee on ABB’s closed-loop motor architectures.
