1PH4163-4NF26-Z industrial motor
1PH4163-4NF26-Z is documented as an exact industrial component with a concrete system role; installation-specific limits remain explicit.
System function
Rebuilt from individual evidence
Evidence-backed specifications
The sources identify 1PH4163-4NF26-Z as a Siemens 1PH4 AC induction main-spindle motor.
The exact listing reports frame 163, incremental sin/cos 2048 S/R feedback without C and D tracks, 1500 rpm, and IM B35/IM V15/IM V36; the Siemens manual documents the base motor's 37 kW, 1500 rpm, 235 Nm, 107 A rating and continuous cooling requirement.
This system placement is an inference from the captured exact-reference evidence.

System role
This section explains what the product does and where it acts in the surrounding system.
- Function
- Converts controlled converter output into high-torque rotary motion for a machine main spindle.
- System position
- Sits between the spindle converter and the machine tool's main spindle.
- Upstream / inputs
- Receives controlled electrical power and encoder feedback from the spindle converter.
- Downstream / outputs
- Transmits rotary torque to the main spindle; continuous cooling is documented for the motor family.
- Limitations
- Unknown: the exact -Z option set, installed converter, cooling hardware, spindle load, and replacement compatibility.
