The ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 SY 3G1,5 from Lapp is a flexible connection and control cable designed for medium mechanical stress. It is suitable for fixed installation as well as for occasional movements without tensile stress. The cable is universally used in machine-internal and plant-wide control circuits and is suitable for use in dry, damp and wet rooms. The PVC outer sheath offers resistance to acids and alkalis, expanding its application possibilities in industrial environments.

Applications

The cable is designed for applications where high mechanical stress may occur during operation, but continuous movement or tensile stress is not required. It is frequently used in automation technology, machine and plant construction, as well as in electrical installation. Its use in dry, damp and wet rooms makes it flexible for various industrial environments, including production halls, warehouses and assembly areas.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 100 SY 3G1,5 features an extruded inner sheath, which provides additional robustness and increases the mechanical stability of the cable. The conductors are colour-coded, which facilitates identification and wiring during the installation process. The cable is equipped with a steel wire braid, providing enhanced protection against mechanical impacts, especially under increased load. The PVC insulation ensures high electrical safety and is resistant to chemical influences.

Technology Explained Simply

The cable is rated for an operating voltage of 300/500 V, making it suitable for use in control and connection circuits. The test voltage is 4000 V, ensuring high electrical safety. The classification of fire behaviour is according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR), with the exact classification being determined via the article number selection on the LAPP website. The steel wire braid protects the cable against mechanical damage and increases its service life under stress.

Compatibility and Accessories

The cable is universally applicable and can be combined with standard connectors, terminals and other connection elements suitable for PVC insulation. The colour-coding of the conductors facilitates assignment to the corresponding circuits.

Installation and Mounting

The cable is designed for fixed installation and can be used for occasional movements without tensile stress. Installation is carried out in the usual manner for flexible control cables, taking into account mechanical loads during operation. Installation in dry, damp and wet rooms is possible, although environmental conditions may affect service life.

Operational Advantages

The combination of PVC outer sheath, extruded inner sheath and steel wire braid ensures high mechanical robustness and chemical resistance. The colour-coded conductor identification simplifies wiring and maintenance. The high test voltage of 4000 V ensures safe electrical insulation. Classification according to BauPVO/CPR enables use in installations that must comply with European construction regulations. The cable is therefore suitable for a wide range of industrial applications where reliability and safety are paramount.
