KUKA 00-160-175 Relay Coupler 2 Changer 24VDC

KUKA 00-160-175 — Relay Coupler (2 Changer, 24 V DC)

The KUKA spare part 00-160-175 is a genuine KUKA relay coupler for dual tool-changer control, operating at 24 V DC. It sits in the robot controller cabinet and switches the relay signals that drive the robot's two tool changers, keeping the controller's sensitive I/O separated from the load side. As a KUKA original spare it is a direct drop-in replacement for maintenance and a verified-fit component for new cell integration.

Specifications

Industrial Applications

• Tool-changer relay control inside KUKA robot controller cabinets, switching the 24 V DC signals that operate dual (2-changer) end-effector changers.
• A direct replacement when an existing relay coupler fails on the line — minimizing stoppage time for maintenance and production teams.
• Specified by system integrators for new cell builds where a verified KUKA-fit relay coupler is required.
• A steady-demand KUKA controller spare that traders and distributors stock and cross-reference by part number 00-160-175.

Design Purpose

This module isolates and switches the 24 V DC control circuit that drives the robot's tool changer. Using a relay (rather than a bare transistor output) gives robust switching for the inductive loads on a changer actuator and protects the controller's I/O from load-side faults such as back-EMF or a short. In a dual-changer setup it manages both changer banks from a single cabinet position, simplifying wiring and panel layout.

Common Failure Modes

• Relay contact weld (stuck closed) — from inrush current or overcurrent on the changer actuator, causing the changer to stay engaged.
• Coil or open-circuit failure — the relay stops switching, so the changer never actuates.
• PCB contamination / moisture — conductive residue across the board can cause intermittent or false switching.
• Loose connectors / wiring — vibration in the cell loosens terminations over time, producing dropouts.

If your cell shows a changer that won't release, won't engage, or behaves intermittently, send us your controller model and we will confirm whether 00-160-175 is the right replacement.

Why Choose Us

• Genuine KUKA 00-160-175 relay coupler, function-tested (relay response and isolation) before dispatch — a verified drop-in spare that gets your cell running again.
• Exact electrical and mechanical match to the original KUKA module, so integrators can specify it with confidence and maintenance teams can swap it without rewiring the cabinet.
