PROFIBUS Cable - Extreme Drag Chain Capable

The PROFIBUS Cable Extreme Drag-Chain Capable is engineered for the most demanding energy chain applications in PROFIBUS installations — where cable cycle life, oil and coolant exposure, and abrasion resistance exceed what a standard flexible cable can reliably handle. The AWG24/19 fine-wire conductor construction, PUR FHF outer jacket, and high-coverage double shielding deliver the combination of extreme flex life, chemical resistance, and EMC protection needed for high-cycle cable carriers in machine tool environments, robot installations, and other applications where the cable undergoes millions of bending cycles during its service life. Rated for over 4 million bending cycles, the cable meets IEC 61158-2, DIN 19245 T3, and EN 50170 requirements and supports PROFIBUS transmission rates up to 12 Mbps. Sold per meter, with required length entered in the quantity field at checkout.

Also available in a solid standard version for fixed installation and a standard flexible version for energy chain applications with less demanding cycle life and chemical resistance requirements.

Key Features
Over 4 Million Bending Cycles: AWG24/19 fine-wire bare copper conductor construction with 19-strand configuration provides extreme flex life for high-cycle cable carrier applications where standard flexible cable would fatigue prematurely.

PUR FHF Outer Jacket: Polyurethane halogen-free flame-retardant outer jacket delivers near-unlimited oil resistance, coolant resistance, and high abrasion resistance — suited for permanent installation in machine tool workshops with continuous exposure to cutting fluids and lubricants.

Double Shielding: Plastic-laminated aluminum foil inner shield combined with a tinned copper wire braid (>85% optical coverage) provides comprehensive EMC protection maintained through the full bending cycle life of the cable.

UV Resistant: Outer jacket material rated for UV resistance, supporting outdoor-routed cable carrier installations and any application with exposure to sunlight or UV sources.

150 Ohm Rated Impedance: Meets the PROFIBUS Type A cable impedance specification per EN 50170, ensuring compatibility with all PROFIBUS DP devices and compliant installation across the full baud rate range up to 12 Mbps.

EN 50170 Compliant: Meets PROFIBUS cable requirements per IEC 61158-2, DIN 19245 T3, and EN 50170, with additional approvals per EN 60332-1-2, IEC 60754-2, and UL AWM 21586.

Fast Connect Compatible: Compatible with PROFIBUS Fast Connect diagnostic connectors (90°, 45°, and axial) for IDC termination using the PROFIBUS FastConnect Stripping Tool.

Violet RAL 4001 Jacket: Standard PROFIBUS violet outer jacket color per EN 50170 for straightforward identification of PROFIBUS cable runs in mixed-protocol installations.

Common Applications
PROFIBUS cable runs through high-cycle energy chain cable carriers on machine tools, robots, linear axes, and gantry systems where cycle life requirements exceed the capability of standard flexible cable.

Permanent installation in machine tool workshop environments where continuous exposure to cutting oils, coolants, and lubricants requires extreme chemical resistance alongside PROFIBUS electrical performance.

Replacement of failed or degraded drag-chain PROFIBUS cables in existing high-cycle machine installations where physical layer issues have been identified through diagnostic measurements.

System integrators and machine builders sourcing extreme-duty PROFIBUS cable for energy chain applications in automotive, machine tool, and heavy industrial environments.
