The control cable ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 18G0.5 from Lapp is a flexible PVC control cable for use in industrial plants and machines. It features 18 conductors with a cross-section of 0.5 mm² and is designed for an operating voltage of 300/500 V. The cable is suitable for moderate mechanical stress and can be used for fixed installations as well as occasional movements without tensile stress. The cable construction also allows for flexible, continuous movement applications in moving machine parts and in drag chains. The PVC insulation and outer sheath are resistant to acids and alkalis and are suitable for use in dry and damp rooms. The cable is suitable for flexible applications at temperatures down to -15 °C.

Applications
This control cable is universally applicable for wiring internal machine and plant-wide control circuits. It is particularly suitable for applications in the manufacturing industry, automation technology, and wind energy, where it can also be used for torsion applications in wind turbines. The cable is designed for use in dry and damp rooms and offers high chemical resistance.

Functions and Features in Detail
The conductors are numbered, enabling easy identification and wiring. The PVC outer sheath is oil-resistant according to DIN EN 50290-2-22 (TM54) and provides protection against aggressive environmental conditions. The cable is VDE-tested and has registration number 7030. High electrical safety is ensured by a test voltage of 4000 V. The reduced wall thicknesses allow for space-saving installation, especially in tight installation situations.

Technology Explained Simply
The control cable is designed for an operating voltage of 300/500 V, making it suitable for use in many industrial control and signal applications. The 18 conductors, each with a cross-section of 0.5 mm², enable the transmission of control signals and small current amounts. The PVC insulation provides good electrical insulation and chemical resistance. The cable is flexible and can be used for occasional movements without tensile stress. The test voltage of 4000 V ensures high electrical safety and prevents breakdowns under load.

Compatibility and Accessories
The control cable is part of an extensive product family with 145 standard items, available with 2 to 100 conductors in various lengths and as individual cuts. The cable is suitable for use in drag chains and moving machine parts and can be combined with other components of the ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC series. The classification of fire behaviour is carried out according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR), with the exact article number selection available on the LAPP website.

Installation and Mounting
The cable is designed for fixed installation and occasional movement without tensile stress. It can be installed in drag chains and moving machine parts. The flexible structure and reduced wall thicknesses facilitate installation, especially in tight or confined installation situations. The numbered conductors support precise and error-free wiring.

Operational Advantages
The control cable offers high mechanical and chemical resistance, extending its service life in demanding environments. The oil-resistant PVC insulation protects against contamination and corrosion. The VDE testing and 4000 V test voltage ensure safe and reliable operation. The space-saving design reduces space requirements in machines and plants, simplifying installation and maintenance. The cable is suitable for use in dry and damp rooms and offers tested resistance to ECOLAB® disinfectants and cleaning agents.
