The control cable ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 18G1 from Lapp is a flexible cable designed for industrial applications, particularly in machine and plant engineering. It features 18 conductors with a cross-section of 1.0 mm² and is available in a length of 50 meters. The cable is designed for medium mechanical stress and is suitable for fixed installation as well as occasional movement without tensile load. The PVC outer sheath offers high resistance to acids, alkalis, and ECOLAB® disinfectants and cleaning agents, making it suitable for use in the food industry or medical environments. The cable is also intended for use in moving machine parts and in drag chains, where the cable construction enables continuous movement. Additionally, it is suitable for torsion applications in wind turbines, highlighting its versatility in energy technology.

Applications

The ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 18G1 is universally applicable for wiring internal machine and plant-wide control circuits. It is suitable for dry and damp rooms and can be flexibly used at temperatures down to -15 °C. The cable is specifically designed for installations subjected to medium mechanical stress. The oil-resistant design according to DIN EN 50290-2-22 (TM54) makes it robust against industrial oils and fats, making it particularly valuable in production environments with high material resistance requirements.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The conductors are numbered, enabling easy identification and wiring. The cable features a VDE registration number 7030, confirming tested quality and compliance with applicable standards. High electrical safety is ensured by a test voltage of 4000 V, guaranteeing reliable insulation and protection against breakdown. The reduced wall thickness of the PVC sheath allows for space-saving installation, especially in tight installation situations.

Technology Explained Simply

The PVC outer sheath protects the conductors from external influences such as moisture, mechanical stress, and chemical substances. The oil-resistant property according to DIN EN 50290-2-22 (TM54) means the cable retains its function even when in contact with industrial oils and fats. The test voltage of 4000 V is a measure of electrical strength and ensures insulation under operating conditions. The fire behavior classification according to EU Directive 305/2011 (BauPVO/CPR) ensures the cable meets EU requirements for fire safety standards.

Compatibility and Accessories

The cable is available in a standard version with 18 conductors and a cross-section of 1.0 mm². It is part of an extensive product range comprising 145 standard items, ranging from 2 to 100 conductors, available in various lengths and as individual cuts. Use in drag chains and moving machine parts requires high flexibility, which is ensured by the special cable construction.

Installation and Mounting

The cable is intended for fixed installation and can be used for occasional movement without tensile load. Installation follows standard procedures for control cables, taking into account mechanical and chemical stresses. The flexible structure allows for easy installation in confined spaces and complex routing situations.

Operational Advantages

The ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 18G1 offers high reliability due to its robust construction and tested quality. Resistance to aggressive chemicals and oil ensures a long service life, even in demanding environments. The space-saving design and easy identification of conductors simplify installation and maintenance. The combination of flexibility, chemical resistance, and electrical safety makes the cable a reliable solution for diverse industrial applications.
