SY PVC / BS EN 50525-2-51 Control Flexible Cable

Application

Used as interconnecting cable for measuring, controlling or regulation in control equipment for assembly and production lines, conveyors and for computer units. Suitable for fixed installations or for flexible use in conditions of light mechanical stress. Can be used outdoors when protected, and in dry or moist conditions indoors. The braided screen offers the best possible protection against mechanical damage and offers a level of electro-magnetic shielding. The galvanized coating helps protect against corrosion. SY Cables are not suitable for direct connection to the public mains supply.
