The ÖLFLEX® LIFT F 8G1,5 450/750V is a flat, flexible installation cable from manufacturer Lapp, specifically designed for use in moving machine parts and cable carriers. It is particularly suitable as a control cable in elevator systems, conveyor and lifting systems, cable car systems, transport systems, and gantry cranes. The cable is designed for medium mechanical stress and enables continuous, moving operation under industrial conditions. Due to its flat cross-section, it is significantly more space-saving than conventional round cables and particularly advantageous in confined spaces. The construction allows for smaller bending radii compared to round cables, simplifying installation in complex systems.

Applications

The cable is suitable for use in dry, damp, and wet rooms, including outdoor areas, provided the temperature range is observed. It is suitable for elevator systems with a maximum suspension length of 35 meters and a maximum speed of 1.6 m/s. The application is in moving machine parts, cable carriers, and systems requiring continuous motion, such as gantry cranes or cable car systems.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The ÖLFLEX® LIFT F 8G1,5 features a PVC outer sheath that is resistant to acids and alkalis and conditionally oil-resistant. Conductor identification is done by numbering, enabling clear assignment of conductors during wiring. The cable is flexible and designed for continuous movement, making it suitable for applications in dynamic systems. Use in conveyor and lifting systems as well as in transport systems is possible due to its mechanical robustness and flexible construction.

Technology Explained Simply

The cable is rated for an operating voltage of 450/750 V, making it suitable for applications in industry and machine construction. The PVC sheath is cold-flexible, enabling use both indoors and outdoors. Temperature resistance ranges from -15 °C to +70 °C, ensuring broad application in various environments. The flat shape reduces space requirements and allows for smaller bending radii, which is advantageous during installation in confined spaces or cable carriers.

Compatibility and Accessories

The cable is designed for use in industrial systems requiring flexible, moving cabling. It is compatible with systems requiring a control cable with 8 conductors and a cross-section of 1.5 mm². Use in elevator systems, cable car systems, and gantry cranes is intended due to its mechanical and electrical properties.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out in moving machine parts and cable carriers, where the flat shape and low bending stiffness facilitate mounting. The cable is designed for a suspension length of up to 35 meters at a maximum speed of 1.6 m/s. Installation does not require special tools, but adherence to specified bending radii and temperature limits is important to ensure service life.

Advantages in Operation

The flat design saves space and enables compact routing, especially in confined areas. The flexible construction ensures long service life under moving conditions. Resistance to acids, alkalis, and oil ensures high reliability in industrial environments. Suitability for outdoor use expands application possibilities, provided temperature limits are observed. The cable is designed for continuous movement and is therefore suitable for systems requiring permanent, flexible cabling.

Protection Class and Environmental Conditions

The cable is suitable for use in dry, damp, and wet rooms as well as outdoors, provided the temperature does not exceed -15 °C to +70 °C. The PVC sheath provides protection against acids, alkalis, and conditionally against oil. Mechanical stress is designed for medium loads, making it suitable for industrial applications with moving parts. The cable is not intended for explosive environments, as no corresponding approvals are mentioned.
