The control cable ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 8G1,5 from Lapp is a flexible cable designed for use in industrial plants and machines. It is designed for medium mechanical stress and is suitable for fixed installation as well as occasional movement without tensile stress. The cable is used in dry and damp rooms and is universally suitable for wiring internal machine and cross-plant control circuits. The PVC outer sheath is resistant to acids and alkalis and conditionally oil-resistant, which expands its application possibilities in various industrial environments. The cable construction is also suitable for torsion applications in wind turbines, highlighting its flexibility and robustness.

Control cable is the primary product type, designed for transmitting control signals in electrical and electronic systems. The cable features eight conductors, each with a cross-section of 1.5 mm², enabling sufficient current transmission for control and signal applications. The conductors are colour-coded, facilitating identification and wiring during installation. The operating voltage is 300/500 V (U0/U), which is sufficient for most industrial control applications. The test voltage of 4000 V ensures high electrical safety and minimizes the risk of breakdowns or insulation faults.

PVC as insulating and protective sheath material offers good mechanical stability and chemical resistance. The reduced wall thickness of the sheath contributes to a space-saving design, which is advantageous when installing in confined spaces or complex machine constructions. The cable is classified according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR), ensuring standardized assessment of fire behaviour. The selection of the appropriate article number is made via the LAPP website to ensure the correct classification for the specific application.

The cable is positioned as a high-quality alternative to control cables of type YSLY or YY, indicating comparable or superior performance in terms of mechanical and electrical properties. Its use in wind turbines under torsional load demonstrates that the construction remains stable even under dynamic conditions. Its universal applicability in various industries, such as machine building, plant engineering, or energy generation, makes the ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 a versatile solution for control cables.

Compatibility is a central aspect: The cable is designed for fixed installation and occasional movement without tensile stress, making it suitable for many industrial applications. The colour-coding of the conductors simplifies wiring and maintenance. The chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, and conditionally to oil expands its application possibilities in harsh environments.

Functions and equipment in detail include eight conductors with a cross-section of 1.5 mm², designed for transmitting control signals and small current amounts. The PVC insulation ensures safe electrical separation of the conductors. The flexible structure allows easy bending and installation without compromising cable integrity. The reduced wall thickness of the sheath contributes to space saving, which is beneficial when installing in compact machines or plants.

Technology explained simply means that the cable is designed for use in industrial control systems, where reliable signal transmission and mechanical stability are required. The test voltage of 4000 V is a measure of insulation quality and ensures electrical safety. Classification according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR) is a quality feature that standardizes fire behaviour properties. The colour-coding of the conductors is a practical feature that reduces wiring errors.

Advantages in operation include universal applicability, high electrical safety, and space saving due to the slim design. The cable is designed for medium mechanical stress, making it suitable for many industrial applications. The chemical resistance to acids and alkalis, as well as conditionally to oil, expands its application possibilities in harsh environments.
