Phoenix Contact 1013957 PAB-KTL 23 cable marking carrier content_copy

The cable label carrier PAB-KTL 23 from Phoenix Contact is an unmarked identification element for longitudinal marking of cables and lines. It is specifically designed for mounting using cable ties and is suitable for the clear identification of wiring in industrial plants, electrical installations, and other technical environments where a clear and durable marking is required. The design allows for secure attachment to cables with a diameter greater than 10 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of cable types and diameters.

Applications

The cable label carrier is used in electrical engineering and mechanical engineering to clearly identify cables and lines. It is particularly useful in complex systems, where quick and error-free identification of wiring is essential for maintenance, servicing, and fault diagnosis. The longitudinal design enables clear marking along the cable axis, improving readability even in tight spaces. Mounting is done using cable ties, allowing flexible and quick installation on various cable diameters.

Functions and Features in Detail

The carrier features a text field with a height of 4 mm and a width of 23 mm, providing sufficient space for short identifications such as letters, numbers, or symbols. The unmarked version allows for individual labelling as needed, for example with a pen, labelling machine, or laser marking. The material selection ensures high mechanical stability and resistance to mechanical stress typical of industrial environments.

Technology Explained Simply

The cable label carrier is a passive identification element that does not perform any electrical function, but serves exclusively for visual identification. The longitudinal shape ensures that the marking is aligned parallel to the cable axis, enhancing readability. The intended mounting method using cable ties allows for simple and secure fastening without requiring additional tools or special mounting procedures. The minimum cable diameter specification of over 10 mm ensures that the carrier does not slip or get damaged on too thin cables.

Compatibility and Accessories

The PAB-KTL 23 is compatible with various conductor markers and cable markers specifically designed for dimensions of 23 mm width and 4 mm height. Compatible products include, for example, conductor markers in green, yellow, orange, white, blue, and red, as well as cable markers in various designs. These accessories enable colour-coded identification, which is standardised in electrical circuit diagrams and standards (such as DIN EN 60417). Combining with coloured markers supports quick visual assignment of lines, for example to distinguish between phases, neutral conductors, or protective conductors.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by securing the carrier to a cable using a cable tie. The carrier is placed over the cable, and the cable tie is threaded through the designated openings and tightened. The fastening is simple and quick to perform, enabling efficient labelling even in large projects.

Operational Advantages

The cable label carrier provides durable and clear identification that remains intact even after frequent inspection or maintenance. The unmarked version allows individual adaptation to specific requirements, while the longitudinal shape optimises readability. Compatibility with various markers and easy mounting with cable ties increases flexibility and applicability in different technical environments. Use in combination with coloured markers supports standardised and unambiguous identification of lines, improving safety and efficiency in operation.
