The Ses-Sterling Pliosnap+ PS-21 6 yellow is a cable marker from the PLIO SNAP+ product series, specifically designed for labelling cables in the field of electrical and IT installation. It serves for the clear identification of wires and cables through a visible, durable marking. The markers are manufactured in yellow colour and feature a black print with the marking "15,2 cm ( 6 inch ). The material is polyoxymethylene (POM), a thermoplastic polymer known for its high strength, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. These properties make the marker suitable for use in industrial and technical installations where long-lasting and durable labelling is required.
Applications
The marker is designed for cables with an outer diameter of 11.0 to 15.5 mm. This corresponds to a cable cross-section of 35.0 mm², making it particularly suitable for medium to large cables in electrical installations, building automation, or industrial control systems. The marking "15,2 cm ( 6 inch ) enables clear assignment within a cable system, for example, to identify phases, conductors, or functions in complex installations. The yellow colour is commonly used in electrical engineering for visual differentiation of specific cable types or functions.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
The markers are supplied as loose individual pieces in a packaging unit containing 50 pieces. Packaging is done in a bag that protects the material from contamination and damage. The markers are designed for easy and quick installation, featuring a special locking mechanism to attach them to the cable. The marking "15,2 cm ( 6 inch ) is clearly legible and permanently printed, ensuring high readability even after prolonged use. The use of POM as material ensures high mechanical stability and resistance to mechanical stress, such as during installation or operation.
Technology Explained Simply
POM, the material used, is a high-quality plastic characterised by its high strength, low friction, and good heat resistance. It is resistant to many chemicals and therefore suitable for use in various environments, including industrial installations. The markers are not self-adhesive but feature a mechanical locking mechanism that enables secure attachment to the cable. The yellow colour and black print provide high contrast, improving readability even under low light conditions. The marking "15,2 cm ( 6 inch ) is an integral part of the label and serves as a unique identifier within a cable system.
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 smaller or larger cable diameters, as the fit and locking mechanism are optimised for this range. Use in cable systems with a cross-section of 35.0 mm² is standard. The markers are intended for use as individual pieces and require no additional tools or accessories for installation.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the marker onto the cable and locking the closure mechanism. No additional tools are required. The markers are designed to easily adapt to the cable and ensure a secure fit. The marker is used directly on the cable without requiring additional holders or fastening devices. Installation is quick and can also be performed in confined spaces, as the markers are flexible and easy to handle.
An advantage in operation is the high readability of the marking, which remains intact even after prolonged use. The material strength ensures that the markers do not easily break or bend, increasing the reliability of the labelling during operation. The use of POM ensures a long service life and resistance to environmental influences such as moisture or mechanical stress. The yellow colour supports visual differentiation within a cable system, simplifying maintenance and servicing.
