The internal DRIVE-CLiQ wiring within a Cabinet Kit is installed in the factory. Cross-component connections, for
example, from the Control Unit of Cabinet Kit >1< to the Motor Module of Cabinet Kit >2< cannot be standardized
owing to the very wide variety of possible configurations. However, the required cable length can be calculated as
being approximately 30 cm from the Control Unit to the relevant power unit + the width of the Booksize Cabinet Kit for
the relevant power unit. If the power units will be connected in a "line topology" (power unit to power unit), then the
cable length calculation must include the width of the Booksize cabinets + at least 10 cm to make allowance for the
bending radii and connectors. Please note that this calculation applies to connections to the right. For connections to
the left, the width of the adjacent Cabinet Kit must be used in the calculation.
These cables must be ordered separately.
Calculation of the DRIVE-CLiQ cable length in a Booksize module line-up
Example:
Three Booksize Cabinet Kits are installed in a Booksize Base Cabinet, as illustrated in the diagram above. A Control
Unit has been assigned to the center kit (2) with option K91. The power unit of the first Cabinet Kit must be connected
to the Control Unit and the power unit of the third Cabinet Kit to the power unit of the second.
The cable lengths required are calculated as follows:
1. No additional cable is needed to connect the power unit to which the Control Unit is assigned with option K91 (all
components are provided within a Cabinet Kit).
2. The power unit of the first Cabinet Kit requires a cable of at least 300 mm (width of Cabinet Kit) + 300 mm
(distance power unit 2 + 30 cm) = 600 mm.
3. The following cable is selected from the catalog: 6SL3060-4AU00-0AA0.
4. The power unit of the third Cabinet Kit requires a cable of at least 200 mm (width of adjacent Cabinet Kit +
100 mm (bending radius) = 300 mm.
The following is selected: 6SL3060-4AM00-0AA0 with a length of 360 mm.
Be aware that the cables must be properly secured.
