The ÖLFLEX® 150 CY 3G0.75 control cable from Lapp is a flexible, shielded cable designed for use in industrial applications, particularly in machine and plant engineering. It is designed for medium mechanical stress and is suitable for fixed installation as well as occasional movement without tensile stress. The cable is supplied in a length of 75 metres and is universally applicable for wiring internal machine and plant control circuits. The PVC outer sheath provides resistance to acids, alkalis, and oily environments, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding industrial conditions. The cable is manufactured according to the harmonised European type H05VVC4V5-K and carries the ¿HAR¿ approval mark, indicating tested safety and quality.

Applications

The ÖLFLEX® 150 CY 3G0.75 is specifically designed for applications requiring high mechanical and chemical resistance. It is suitable for use in dry, damp, and particularly oily environments, making it ideal for use in manufacturing, packaging technology, or food processing. The tested resistance to ECOLAB® disinfectants and cleaning agents also makes it suitable for hygienically demanding areas. The cable is intended for indoor use and is not recommended for outdoor applications, as no specific weather resistance or IP protection rating is specified.

Functions and Features in Detail

The cable features a copper braided shield with high coverage, providing excellent protection against electromagnetic interference. This is particularly important in environments with strong electromagnetic fields, such as those near motors, transformers, or other electrical equipment. Conductor identification is done by numbers, which facilitates clear and unambiguous assignment of conductors. The cable is equipped with an extruded inner sheath, which adds extra robustness and enhances mechanical stability. The three conductors have a cross-section of 0.75 mm² (equivalent to 19 AWG), which is sufficient for control and signal transmission applications.

Technical Explanation

The designation H05VVC4V5-K describes the harmonised European type of the cable. The operating voltage is U0/U: 300/500 V, meaning the cable is rated for a nominal voltage of 300 V between conductor and earth and 500 V between conductors. The PVC insulation and PVC outer sheath ensure good electrical insulation and mechanical strength. The enhanced oil resistance according to DIN EN 50363-4-1 (TM5) ensures that the cable remains undamaged even when in contact with oily media. UL and CSA certification enables use of the product in the North American market, making the cable internationally applicable.

Compatibility and Accessories

The ÖLFLEX® 150 CY 3G0.75 is designed for use in standard control and signal systems. It can be connected to common connectors, terminals, and other connection elements suitable for PVC insulation. The multi-certification (HAR, UL, CSA) allows universal use and reduces component variety, which can lower logistics costs.

Installation and Mounting

The cable is designed for fixed installation and can be used for occasional movement without tensile stress. Installation typically involves wiring within machines or plants, taking into account mechanical and chemical loads. The cable should not be installed under tension, as this may reduce its service life. Conductors are connected using appropriate connection elements, and the numerical conductor identification simplifies assignment.

Operational Advantages

The ÖLFLEX® 150 CY 3G0.75 offers high reliability in demanding environments. The combination of oil-resistant sheathing, electromagnetic shielding, and mechanical robustness ensures long service life and low maintenance. The multi-certification allows use in various regions without additional modifications, simplifying planning and logistics. The cable is therefore an economical and reliable solution for control and signal applications in industry.
