Applications of control and connection cables
PVC control and connection cables are particularly suitable for control devices, e.g. on machine tools, conveyor or assembly lines, transporting equipment, production lines and construction of industrial plants. The cables can be moved after installation, especially for alignment and adjustment as well as inspection of machines, provided that the cables are not mechanically overloaded. Wherever a certain protection against electromagnetic interferences is requested cables with a copper screen can be used. These cables are not to be used for outdoor installation.
Types of Control Cables
In the following overview you will find all types of control cables as well as possible fields of application.
Exemplary applications
Our lamp cable is used in the lamp and light industry for the connection of halogen lamps and lighting or rather downlights. This cable is because of design reasons equipped with a transparent PVC outer sheath. The cores have a FEP insulation which is very temperature resistant and which is made to withstand the extremely high temperature of the halogen lights of up to +180°C
PUR control and connection cables are particularly suitable for control devices, e.g. on machine tools, conveyor or assembly lines, transporting equipment and production lines. They can be used at high mechanical load for fixed installation or flexible application with free movement, without tensile load and mechanically guided movement in dry, damp and wet rooms. These cables are used wherever abrasion resistance, notch toughness, oil and chemical resistance are strongly requested.
Exemplary applications
Due to the PUR outer sheath very well suitable for: machine and industrial plant construction, material handling techniques (e.g. working platforms and transportation systems), car manufacturing industry, handling and automation technologies, iron, steel and chemical industries
These cables are suitable for the use with high mechanical loads in dry, damp and wet rooms, e.g. as connection cable for electrical appliances and electric tools, particularly at low temperatures.
These cables are multi-conductor 600 V control cables with UL recognition, chemical and oil resistant. The reduced outer diameter permits easy handling and installation in confined areas.
