The ÖLFLEX® LIFT F 12G1 300/500V 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, as well as in gantry cranes and other transport systems. The cable is designed for medium mechanical stress and enables continuous, moving operation with a maximum hanging length of 35 metres and a speed up to 1.6 m/s. Due to its flat cross-section, it is more space-saving than conventional round cables and especially suitable for spatially restricted installation situations. The PVC outer sheath is resistant to acids and alkalis and conditionally oil-resistant, allowing the cable to be used in dry, damp or wet rooms. Thanks to the cold-flexible insulating and sheathing material, it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, provided the permissible temperature range is observed.

Applications

The cable is primarily intended for use in moving machine parts and cable carriers, particularly in conveyor technology, lifting and transport systems, as well as in gantry cranes. It can be used as an elevator control cable and allows flexible, continuous movement with a maximum hanging length of 35 metres and a speed up to 1.6 m/s. The flat design enables compact installation in confined spaces and reduces space requirements compared to round cables. The cable is suitable for outdoor use, provided the specific temperature conditions are met.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The ÖLFLEX® LIFT F 12G1 300/500V features a PVC outer sheath that is mechanically and chemically resistant. It is resistant to acids and alkalis and has conditional oil resistance. Core identification is done by numbers, enabling clear assignment of individual cores. The cable is designed to be flexible, ensuring movement in cable carriers while compensating for mechanical stress from bending and tensile forces. The flat shape reduces the required bending radius compared to round cables, facilitating installation in tight curves and bends.

Technology Explained Simply

The cable is rated for an operating voltage of 300/500 V, with voltage class 450/750 V also possible depending on the conductor cross-section. The PVC sheath provides high mechanical strength and chemical resistance, especially against acids, alkalis and oil. The cold-flexible material composition allows use at temperatures from –15 °C, expanding its application possibilities in outdoor and climatically variable environments. The flat design reduces space requirements and enables smaller bending radii, simplifying installation in confined spaces and complex routing.

Compatibility and Accessories

The cable is suitable for use in conveyor and lifting systems, cable car systems, transport systems and gantry cranes. It can be used in cable carriers and moving machine parts where flexible, continuous movement is required. Compatibility with existing systems is ensured by standardisation of voltage classes and mechanical properties. The flat design allows easy integration into existing routing systems, especially in spatially restricted areas.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out in moving machine parts and cable carriers, with the maximum hanging length of 35 metres and maximum speed of 1.6 m/s not to be exceeded. The flat design allows smaller bending radii than round cables, facilitating routing in tight curves and bends. The cable is suitable for use in dry, damp and wet rooms, provided the temperature limits of –15 °C to +70 °C are observed. Core identification by numbers simplifies assignment and wiring.

Operational Advantages

The ÖLFLEX® LIFT F 12G1 300/500V offers high mechanical and chemical resistance, extending service life in demanding environments. The flat design reduces space requirements and enables smaller bending radii, simplifying installation in confined spaces and complex routing. The cold-flexible material composition expands application possibilities in outdoor environments and variable temperatures. The cable is designed for continuous, moving use in cable carriers and moving machine parts, ensuring reliable performance in conveyor and lifting systems.
