The product is a
cable marker from the brand Ses-Sterling, type
Pliosnap+ PS-21 1 yellow, specifically developed for labelling cables in the field of electrical and IT installations. It serves for the unambiguous identification of cables based on the printed marking "2,5 cm ( 1 inch ) in black on a yellow background. The markers are made of
POM (polyoxymethylene), a robust, wear-resistant plastic known for its high mechanical strength and heat resistance. This material choice ensures a long service life and good resistance against mechanical stress and chemical influences in the operating environment.
Applications
The marker is designed for cables with an outer diameter between 11.0 mm and 15.5 mm, making it particularly suitable for medium to large cable cross-sections up to 35.0 mm². It is typically used in industrial electrical installations, building technology, or IT infrastructure, where clear and durable cable identification is required. The yellow colour supports visual differentiation and is specified in many standards as an identification colour for certain cable functions.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The marker features a
snap system, enabling easy and quick installation without tools. The cable markers are supplied loose in a packaging unit containing 50 pieces. The marking "2,5 cm ( 1 inch ) is printed in black, providing high contrast against the yellow background and ensuring good readability even under low light conditions. The markers are not self-adhesive; instead, they are secured to the cable using a clamp or clip mechanism, ensuring a secure and durable attachment.
Technology Explained Simply
The material
POM is characterised by high strength, low friction, and good resistance to moisture and chemical influences. It is particularly suitable for use in industrial environments where mechanical stress and temperature fluctuations occur. The
snap function allows for quick installation without additional tools, reducing installation time. The markers are not intended for use in explosive atmospheres, as no corresponding approvals or protection types (e.g. Ex) are mentioned.
Compatibility and Accessories
The markers are specifically designed for cables with an outer diameter of 11.0 to 15.5 mm. They are not suitable for cables outside this range, as secure attachment cannot be guaranteed.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the marker onto the cable and securing it using the integrated snap mechanism. No tools are required. The attachment is achieved through mechanical tension generated by the clip system. The markers are not reusable, as the snap system cannot be opened again after initial installation without damaging the marker.
Operational Advantages
Using
Pliosnap+ PS-21 markers enables quick and unambiguous cable identification, simplifying maintenance, servicing, and fault diagnosis in electrical systems. The high readability due to the contrast between the yellow background and black print ensures rapid identification. The robust material selection guarantees a long service life under normal operating conditions. The packaging unit of 50 pieces allows for economical use in larger projects.
