The article
Plio-V-MARKERS V-30 1 brown from Ses-Sterling is a marking ring made of soft PVC, specifically designed for marking cables in the field of electrical and IT installations. The rings are manufactured in strip form and pre-cut to enable quick and precise application on cables with an outer diameter of 2.1 to 2.8 mm. They are designed for cable cross-sections between 0.75 and 1 mm² and serve for the unambiguous identification of conductors in cabling systems. The brown color supports visual differentiation within cable bundles or in complex installations.
Applications
These marking rings are used in industrial electrical installations, building automation, IT infrastructures, and other areas where clear and durable cable marking is required. They are particularly suitable for cables with medium cross-sections installed in switchgear, control systems, or network infrastructures. The use of soft PVC ensures flexible adaptation to the cable surface without cracking or material wear.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The rings are pre-cut, meaning they are already divided into individual, easy-to-handle pieces and can be directly slid onto the cable. The strip form allows for compact storage and easy removal from the packaging. The brown color is consistent and resistant to everyday environmental influences such as light and moisture, ensuring long-term readability of the marking. The rings are not marked with additional numbers, symbols, or text—they serve solely as color-coded identification.
Technology Explained Simply
The use of soft PVC as material ensures high flexibility and elasticity, allowing the rings to be easily slid over the cable without damaging it. The material choice also ensures good adhesion to the cable surface, preventing the rings from slipping easily. The predefined fit for cable outer diameters of 2.1 to 2.8 mm ensures that the rings sit securely without being too loose or too tight. The rings are not self-adhesive; they are fixed by sliding them onto the cable.
Compatibility and Accessories
The marking rings are designed for cables with an outer diameter of 2.1 to 2.8 mm and a cross-section of 0.75 to 1 mm². They are therefore compatible with a wide range of standard cables used in electrical and IT technology. The rings can be combined with other marking systems, provided the cable size and marking requirements match. There are no specific accessories required for using these rings.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is done by simply sliding the ring onto the cable. Due to the pre-cut form and flexible material, no additional tools are required. The rings can be easily slid over the cable and sit securely after installation. No special mounting instructions are needed, as handling is intuitive. The packaging unit contains 1000 rings, which is sufficient for larger projects or series installations.
Operational Advantages
Using these marking rings reduces the error rate in cable identification, especially in complex systems. The uniform brown color enables quick visual identification, making maintenance and repair work more efficient. The robust material quality ensures a long service life of the marking, even under normal operating conditions. The pre-cut strip form speeds up installation and reduces labor compared to uncut strips.
