Lapp 0010010 ÖLFLEX CLASSIC 100 16G0.5 300/500 V PVC color-coded content_copy

The control cable ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 16G0,5 from Lapp is a flexible PVC control cable for medium mechanical stress, suitable for fixed installation as well as occasional movement without tensile load. It is used in dry and damp rooms and serves for wiring of machine-internal and plant-wide control circuits. The PVC outer sheath is resistant to acids and alkalis and conditionally oil-resistant, making the cable suitable for various industrial applications. The cable construction is also designed for torsion applications in wind turbines. The cable is classified according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR) and offers high electrical safety through a test voltage of 4000 V. The reduced wall thicknesses ensure a space-saving design, and the wide range of dimensions enables a broad application spectrum. As a high-quality alternative to control cables of type YSLY or YY, it provides reliable performance in industrial environments.

Applications
ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 16G0,5 is designed for applications where medium mechanical stress is expected. It is suitable for fixed installation in machines, plants, and buildings, as well as for occasional movements without tensile stress. The cable can be used in dry and damp rooms, making it suitable for indoor installations in industry, manufacturing, and energy generation. Particularly in wind turbines, it can be used due to its torsion-resistant construction, enabling rotational movements without damaging the cable.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The control cable features a PVC outer sheath resistant to acids and alkalis and conditionally oil-resistant. The conductors are colour-coded, enabling easy identification and wiring. The cable is flexible and designed for medium mechanical stress. The reduced wall thicknesses ensure a space-saving design, which is advantageous during installation in confined spaces or complex machine constructions. High electrical safety is ensured by a test voltage of 4000 V, guaranteeing reliable insulation even under increased voltage loads.

Technology Explained Simply
The designation 16G0,5 describes the cable configuration: 16 conductors each with a cross-section of 0.5 mm². The operating voltage is U0/U: 300/500 V, meaning the cable is designed for an operating voltage of up to 300 V between conductor and earth and 500 V between conductors. The PVC sheath provides protection against external influences such as moisture, acids, and alkalis. Classification according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR) ensures defined fire behaviour, which is relevant for use in buildings and plants. The test voltage of 4000 V checks insulation strength and ensures electrical reliability.

Compatibility and Accessories
ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 16G0,5 is designed as a universally applicable control cable and can be used in various industrial plants and machines. It is a high-quality alternative to control cables of type YSLY or YY, where the specific requirements of the respective application are decisive. The cable is suitable for wiring control circuits in machines and plants, particularly in environments where medium mechanical stress and occasional movements occur.

Installation and Mounting
The cable is designed for fixed installation and can be used for occasional movements without tensile load. Installation takes place in dry and damp rooms, with mechanical stress not exceeding the specified medium load. The colour-coded conductor identification simplifies wiring and reduces error sources. The reduced wall thicknesses allow for compact installation, which is advantageous when installing in tight construction gaps or complex machine constructions.

Operational Advantages
ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 16G0,5 offers high electrical safety through the 4000 V test voltage and a space-saving design through reduced wall thicknesses. The resistance of the PVC sheath to acids, alkalis, and conditionally to oil increases service life and reliability in industrial environments. Classification according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR) enables use in plants subject to construction products regulation. The wide range of dimensions and universal applicability in control circuits make the cable a flexible solution for various applications.
