Cable structure

Tinned copper conductor, fine wire,
Unilay with short lay length
Core insulation of special PP
Core identification to DIN VDE 0293
black cores with continuous white
numbering
GN-YE conductor, 3 cores and above
Stranding:
< 7 cores: cores stranded in a layer with
optimal lay length around a filler as per
construction
≥ 7 cores: cores stranded with optimal
lay length to bunch-construction with
low torsion strength, optimal selected
short lay length around a filler
Special-TPE-O inner sheath, extruded as
filler with pressure, natural colour
Screen of Cu braid tinned,
coverage 85% max., with optimal pitch
Outer sheath of speciall-TPE-O
extruded as filler with pressure
Sheath colour: ocean blue (RAL 5020)
With meter marking
TPE: The selected tinned copper wire
conductor and tinned copper wire braid
permit the installation in aggressive
environments as well as hydrogen sulfide,
ammonia and sulfur dioxide.

Properties

Microbe-resistance - TPE
High property of alternating bending
strength
Longer service life due to low friction
resistance
High tensile, abrasion and impact
resistance even at low temperatures
Extremely high bending loads
Low adhesion
Higher notch toughness
Oil resistance
Better chemical resistance
Ozone- and UV-resistant
Higher economical solution
Reduced Ø, therefore less moving masses
The materials used during manufacturing
are cadmium-free, contain no silicone
and are free from substances harmful
to the wetting properties of lacquers

Note

G = with GN-YE conductor
x = without GN-YE conductor (OZ)
Please note "cleanroom qualified"
when ordering.
AWG sizes are approximate equivalent
values. The actual cross section is in mm².

Application

The selected materials and lay-up technique permit these high flexible cables for permanent application in drag chains for long distances, high and slow speed of movements. These cables are installed in dry, moist and wet rooms and in open air with free movement without tensile stress or forced movements. These robust and abrasion resistant special control cables are installed there, where the problems appear for the application in permanent stresses e. g. in energy drag chains, industry robotics, production lines, automatic control systems and permanent movable machinery parts for multi-shift operation. These cables are installed everywhere, where high requirements for the flexibility, abrasion, oxygen and chemical resistance are necessary. For applications which go beyond standard solutions (for example for composting appliances or high shelf conveyors with extremely high processing speeds etc.) we recommend for our especially developed enquiry sheet for energy guiding systems. Before installation in cable trays please read the instructions. Further technical details see selection table for drag chain cables, see chapter "Technical Informations".
EMC = Electromagnetic compatibility
To optimize the EMC features we recommend a large round contact of the copper braiding on both ends.
CE = Product conforms with Low-Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU.
