Oil- and Abrasion-Resistant Cable for Industrial Machine tools

POSTED 01/25/2017

ÖLFLEX® 409 P PUR control cableLAPP's ÖLFLEX® 409 P PUR control cable for oil- and abrasion-resistant industrial machine tools and appliances is a special interstice filling functional layer on a special PVC base enables more efficient and reliable stripping and ensures improved stripping characteristics, reduction of damage to core insulation, less subsequent manual processing and reduced material waste – compared to common PUR jacketed cables. This results in time and costs savings.

Thanks to a robust polyurethane outer sheath, this cable delivers increased durability under harsh conditions. ÖLFLEX® 409 P is also resistant to contact with many mineral oil-based lubricants, diluted acids, aqueous alkaline solutions and other chemical media.


 

In addition, this cable is made up of a fine-wire, bare copper conductor, special PVC core insulation, twisted-layer cores and a special outer sheath of polyurethane with an interstitial functional layer.

Other technical features include:

  • Intermittent flexing temperature range from -5 to 70°C
  • Fixed installation temperature range from -40 to 80°C
  • Test voltage: 4000 V
  • Minimum bending radius:
    • Flexible use: 12.5 x outer diameter
    • Fixed installation: 4 x outer diameter

LAPP brands include; ÖLFLEX®, UNITRONIC®, EPIC®, SKINTOP®, ETHERLINE®, HITRONIC®, SILVYN®, and FLEXIMARK®.
