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.

Cable with TPE rubber outer insulation have a protective layer that is more flexible and resists abrasion better than other materials. Halogen-free TPE rubber also stands up to extreme temperatures and chemicals, making it good for use in harsh outdoor environments.

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.

Control Cable

Unshielded

Use For:
Unshielded: Automation
Shielded: Automation; Interference Shielding
Flexible
Temperature Range: 45° to 190° F
Insulation: PVC Plastic

Send signal and data to operate, measure, or regulate automated equipment that requires cable to periodically flex and bend. This cable is often used with conveyors, CNC machines, and to connect equipment to a control panel. The PVC insulation resists oil. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.

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

Double Shielded

Use For:
Unshielded: Automation
Double Shielded: Automation, Interference Shielding
Flexible
Temperature Range: -10° to 190° F
Insulation:
Outer: PVC Plastic
Inner: Nylon/PVC Plastic Blend

This cable meets TC-ER crush and impact requirements for exposed runs in cable carriers, so it can be used without conduit. It withstands periodic flexing and bending, sends signal and data to operate, measure, or regulate automated equipment. The PVC insulation resists oil. 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.

Double shielded cable has a layer of braid and foil shielding that provides excellent protection against signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

Thin-Insulation Control Cable

Unshielded

Double Shielded

Use For:
Unshielded: Automation
Double Shielded: Automation, Interference Shielding
Flexible
Temperature Range: -40° to 220° F
Insulation: Modified Polyphenylene Ether (mPPE) Plastic

Nearly two-thirds the diameter of standard control cable, this cable fits in tight spaces. The modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) insulation is less than half the weight of the PVC insulation found on standard control cable, yet is more abrasion and cut resistant. Use it to send signal and data to operate, measure, or regulate automated equipment that requires cable to periodically flex and bend. It’s often used with conveyors, CNC machines, and to connect equipment to a control panel. Cable is flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.

Variable-Frequency Drive Motor Cable

This cable is used in variable-frequency drive motors. It has a layer of braid and foil shielding that provides excellent protection against signal interference caused by voltage fluctuations and current spikes. The industry designation is WTTC, so it can be installed in cable trays or raceway in a wind turbine generator. 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. The insulation resists oil.

Cable with power wires sends electricity to run a motor. Cable with power and signal wires has an individually shielded pair of wires that connect to a brake or temperature sensor, reducing the number of cables used in areas with limited space.

Cable with an uninsulated ground wire has an additional uninsulated ground wire you can use to ground the cable’s foil shielding. Also known as a drain wire, it isn’t counted in the cable’s number of wires. MSHA accepted cable meets Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) standards for material quality.
