The Plio-Super 18,0 orange insulating sleeve from Ses-Sterling is a flexible protective element for electrical wiring and cables in the field of installation technology. It provides mechanical and thermal protection insulation for cables and wiring in indoor and outdoor installations, with the orange color enabling visual identification. The sleeve is packaged in a length of 25 meters and is particularly suitable for use in electrical installations, where permanent protection against mechanical stress, moisture, and temperature fluctuations is required.
Insulating sleeve
The Plio-Super 18,0 is a thermoplastic insulating sleeve made from polyolefins. This material class is characterized by high flexibility, good chemical resistance, and high resistance to mechanical stress. The sleeve wall is uniform and serves as a protective layer for cables installed within it. The orange color is clearly defined and serves for easy identification during the installation process.
Applications
The sleeve is used in electrical and building technology, particularly for cable installation in areas with increased mechanical stress, such as in machine construction, industrial plants, or during installation in pipe conduits. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor use, with a thermal resistance range of -20 °C to 90 °C enabling a wide range of applications. The sleeve is typically used for protective cable installation to shield cables from mechanical damage, moisture, and contamination.
Functions and equipment in detail
The insulating sleeve Plio-Super 18,0 features a uniform wall thickness, ensuring consistent protective performance. The orange color is not only visually identifiable but also serves as a marking for specific applications, such as in building automation or for control wiring installation. The packaging unit contains 25 meters, enabling efficient handling and processing. The weight is 61 grams per meter, indicating a lightweight yet robust construction.
Technology explained simply
The sleeve is made from a thermoplastic polymer that remains flexible at room temperature and retains its mechanical properties up to 90 °C. The material composition ensures high resistance to moisture, UV radiation, and common chemicals, making it suitable for use in various environments. The orange color is an integral part of the material and not applied as a coating, ensuring long-lasting color retention.
Compatibility and accessories
The insulating sleeve is universally applicable and can be combined with various cable types, particularly with electrical wiring and control cables. It is suitable for use in cable ducts, pipe conduits, and open installations. Processing involves cutting, bending, and inserting cables, with no additional tools or adhesives required. The 25-meter packaging unit allows flexible use in different projects.
Installation and mounting
Mounting is done by simply inserting the cables to be protected into the sleeve. The sleeve can be cut with a knife or scissors, and the material's flexibility allows for clean processing. Installation can be done in open or enclosed channels, with the protective function remaining unaffected by the installation method. No special tools are required, as the sleeve is easy to handle.
Operational advantages
The Plio-Super 18,0 orange provides reliable protection for electrical wiring that is exposed to mechanical stress, moisture, or contamination. The thermal resistance from -20 °C to 90 °C allows use in a wide range of environments, including industrial facilities. The orange color simplifies identification and maintenance of the wiring. The 25-meter packaging unit offers an economical and practical solution for installations of various sizes.
