This item is a cable marker from the brand Ses-Sterling, type Pliosnap+ PS-17 F yellow, specifically developed for the identification of cables in the field of electrical and IT installations. These markers serve for the unambiguous identification of cables based on color and lettering, with the color yellow and the black imprint "F" used here. The markers are made of polyoxymethylene (POM), a thermoplastic material known for its high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. This material selection ensures long service life and reliability under industrial conditions.
Applications
The marker is designed for cables with an outer diameter of 8.5 to 11.5 mm, making it particularly suitable for medium to large cable cross-sections up to 25.0 mm². It is typically used in electrical installations, machine building, manufacturing technology, or building automation, where clear and durable cable identification is required. The yellow color serves as a visual classification, often specified in many standards and company guidelines for certain cable functions or voltage levels.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The markers are supplied as loose individual pieces and can be easily slipped over the cable. The PS-17 type features a special snap-lock mechanism that allows secure fastening without additional tools. The black imprint "F" is clearly legible and serves as an identifier, for example, for a specific function, phase, or cable category. The use of POM as material ensures that the markers do not crack or fade even under mechanical stress, such as bending or pulling.
Technology Explained Simply
POM (polyoxymethylene) is a high-quality plastic material known for its excellent mechanical properties, including high stiffness, low friction, and good wear resistance. It is resistant to many chemicals and can withstand temperatures up to approximately 100 °C over the long term. These properties make it ideal for use in industrial environments, where markers must function reliably and durably under load. The yellow color is standardized in many marking systems for specific functions or voltage levels, enabling quick visual identification.
Compatibility and Accessories
The markers are specifically designed for cables with an outer diameter of 8.5 to 11.5 mm. They therefore fit cables with a cross-section of 25.0 mm², which is typical for heavy-duty electrical wiring in industrial installations.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the marker over the cable. The integrated snap-lock ensures secure fastening without requiring additional tools. The markers are supplied loose and can be directly attached to the cable. No special preparation or tools are required, making installation quick and easy.
Operational Advantages
The use of POM as material ensures high mechanical stability and long service life of the markers. The clear black lettering "F" on a yellow background guarantees good readability even under low light conditions. The yellow color supports visual classification and enables quick identification during maintenance or installation work. The tool-free installation reduces installation time and minimizes error sources.
