Details

Cable Structure

      • Copper wire bare, finely stranded acc. to ASTM B174 Class K, AWG sizes
      • Core insulation: see datasheet
      • Core identification: black cores with consecutive labeling in white digits
      • Protective conductor: starting with 3 cores,
      • G = with protective conductor GN-YE, in the outer layer,
      • x = without protective conductor
      • Cores stranded in layers with optimal lay lengths
      • 1. Screen: plastic-coated aluminium foil (St)
      • 2. Screen: braided screen of tinned copper wires, approx. coverage 85%
      • Outer sheath: Special-PVC
      • Sheath colour: grey (RAL 7001)
      • Length marking: in feet

Properties

      • resistant to: oil, UV radiation (SUN RES)
      • for outdoor use
      • direct burial (DIR BUR)
      • the materials used during manufacturing are cadmium-free, contain no silicone and are free from substances harmful to the wetting properties of lacquers

Tests

      • flame-retardant acc. to CSA FT4
      • oil-resistant acc. to UL Std 1277 Tab. 12.2, Oil Res I / Oil Res II
      • Cold Bend Test acc. to UL Std. 1277 No. 17
      • Impact Test (-ER) acc. to UL Std. 1277 No. 23
      • Crushing Test (-ER) acc. to UL Std. 1277 No. 24
      • direct burial (DIR BUR) acc. to UL Std. 1277 No. 5 (wet-locations insulation), No. 19 (crushing test)
      • Vertical-Tray Flame Test (FT4) acc. to UL Std. 1277 No. 15 / UL Std. 1685
      • certifications and approvals:
      • EAC
      • ECOLAB®
      • Part numbers with protective conductor (GN-YE): for Class 1 Div. 2 explosive environments acc. to NEC Art. 501

Notes

      • Conductor sizes are based on the AWG measurement system, metric conductor sizes (mm²) are approximated and are for reference only

Application

      • TRAYCONTROL® 500-C is a flexible, oil resistant control cable. The special combination of TC-ER, PLTC-ER and ITC-ER allows this cable to be used as a connecting cable for industrial plant and machinery in accordance with NFPA 79. Approved for open, unprotected installation in cable trays to the machine. Its outstanding oil resistance (OIL RES I & II) allows for a long service life. For industrial applications in dry, damp and wet environments. Recommended applications: Production lines, bottling plants, machine construction, switch cabinets, conveyor systems, packaging machines, automotive industry. EMC = Electromagnetic Compatibility; in order to optimise EMC properties, we recommend a double-sided and all-round large contact area of the copper braiding. Only cables with 3 or more cores are rated for exposed run (ER).
