Continuous-Flex Cable

Unshielded

Shielded

Often used in automated applications such as robotics and cable carriers, this cable withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. Rated for use in ISO Class 1 or ISO Class 2 clean rooms, this cable releases minimal particles into the air, helping you to maintain the cleanest possible environment.

Use unshielded cable in applications where signal interference is not a concern.

Shielded cable has a layer of braid that blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

Choose cable with PVC plastic outer insulation for general purpose indoor applications. Their protective layer resists abrasion, though it has the highest bend radius compared to other materials.

CE marked cable meets European health, safety, and environmental protection requirements.

Bend radius is the point to which the cable will bend without being damaged. It is measured from the center of the bend to the edge of the cable. The smaller the radius, the more the cable can bend.

This cable meets TC-ER crush and impact requirements for exposed runs in cable carriers, so it can be used without conduit. Often used in automated applications such as robotics, it withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. It’s flame rated FT4 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with material mounted to a vertical tray.

Use unshielded cable in applications where signal interference is not a concern.

Shielded cable has a layer of braid that blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

Long-Life Continuous-Flex Cable

Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion
Continuous Flex
Temperature Range: -30° to 175° F
Insulation:
Outer: Polyurethane Rubber
Inner: TPE Rubber

With a life span of more than 20 million high-speed flex cycles, this cable lasts twice as long as standard continuous-flex cable so you have to replace cable less frequently. Often used in automated applications such as robotics and cable carriers, it withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. The polyurethane rubber insulation resists abrasion, chemicals, and oil.

Bend radius is the point to which the cable will bend without being damaged. It is measured from the center of the bend to the edge of the cable. The smaller the measurement, the tighter the bend.

Shielded Micro M12 Screw-Together Connectors

Block signal interference from nearby devices, such as motors and transmitters, while maintaining a strong, stable connection for M12 threads. The shielding on these connectors maintains signal integrity and minimizes signal loss between equipment. The threaded housing creates a secure connection that withstands the shaking and vibrating of industrial automation.

A-coded, these connectors are often used to connect equipment to IO Link controllers and devices within Profibus, DeviceNet, and other fieldbus systems. They work with both AC and DC devices such as sensors, motors, and light curtains. Poles and keyways on their face adhere to standard coding layouts to reduce the chance you’ll mismatch connections.

Connectors with polyurethane outer insulation are halogen free, so they won’t release toxic fumes or cause corrosion in metal. Polyurethane resists chemicals, oil, and UV rays, and is very flexible. It’s good for use in industrial environments and robotics.

All meet IP ratings when either mated or capped. IP66K rated connectors are dust tight and protected from washdowns. IP67 rated connectors are protected from dust and temporary submersion.

Add caps to protect connectors and maintain their IP ratings when not in use.

Note: They may have extra holes on the face that are not used.
