The PLIO SNAP+ PS-12 Star marker from Ses-Sterling is a cable identification system for use in electrical and IT technology. It is designed for the clear identification of cables and wires with an outer diameter of 4.5 to 6.0 mm and a cable cross-section of 4.0 to 6.0 mm². The markers are white with black print and made of POM plastic, a material known for its high mechanical strength and chemical resistance. The carrier rods, on which the markers are mounted, are yellow and can also be purchased without markers. A packaging unit contains 12 pre-mounted carrier rods, holding a total of 300 markers. The packaging weighs 75 g and is supplied in a bag.

Cable identification is an essential component of structured cabling to avoid errors during installation, maintenance, or repair. The PLIO SNAP+ PS-12 Star enables quick and secure labelling of cables, with markers easily slid onto the carrier rods using the SNAP+ system. The white background with black text ensures good readability, even in low light conditions. The use of POM as material ensures high resistance to mechanical stress and chemical influences, providing the markers with a long service life.

Application areas include electrical installations, IT infrastructure, and industrial plants where clear and durable cable identification is required. The markers are suitable for cables with an outer diameter between 4.5 and 6.0 mm, making them appropriate for a wide range of standard cables in power and low-voltage technology. The cable cross-section range of 4.0 to 6.0 mm² covers typical applications in electrical installations. The use of POM ensures high temperature resistance and resistance to moisture, enabling use in various environments.

Functions and equipment in detail include the SNAP+ system, which allows for easy and quick mounting of markers onto carrier rods. The markers are pre-mounted on the yellow carrier rods, reducing on-site preparation. The packaging contains 12 carrier rods with a total of 300 markers, providing sufficient quantity for larger projects. The white colour with black print ensures clear visibility and good readability of the labelling. The choice of POM material ensures high mechanical strength and chemical resistance, securing the longevity of the markers in use.

Technology explained simply shows that the SNAP+ system is a mechanical locking mechanism, where markers are simply slid over the carrier rods and remain fixed. This enables quick and error-free labelling without additional tools. The material POM (polyoxymethylene) is a high-quality thermoplastic known for its excellent mechanical properties, such as high strength, wear resistance, and resistance to many chemicals. The white colour of the markers with black text provides high contrast, improving readability even in poor lighting conditions.

Compatibility and accessories refers to the use of markers with cables within the specified diameter and cross-section range. The carrier rods are yellow and can be purchased without markers, allowing for custom labelling. The markers are designed for use with the PLIO SNAP+ system, enabling standardised mounting.

Mounting and installation is done by sliding the markers onto the carrier rods using the SNAP+ system. The markers are pre-mounted on the carrier rods, so they can be used immediately. The installation requires no additional tools or adhesives. The carrier rods can be attached to the cables, with the markers automatically adapting to the cable’s outer diameter. The use of POM ensures high mechanical strength, so the markers remain undamaged even under mechanical stress.

Advantages in operation include fast and secure cable labelling, high readability due to the white/black contrast, and long service life due to the use of POM. The packaging with 300 markers on 12 carrier rods provides sufficient quantity for larger projects. The simple tool-free installation reduces installation time and minimises errors. The chemical resistance of the material ensures long life even in demanding environments.
