General
Colour	Red

The Pliospire PE 12 spiral conduit from Ses-Sterling is a flexible protective conduit made of polyethylene, specifically developed for use in electrical and installation technology. It serves as a mechanical protective covering for cables and wiring, particularly in areas where a certain degree of flexibility and mobility is required. The red-coloured version allows for easy visual identification within the installation network. The conduit is packaged in a length of 25 metres and is therefore suitable for larger installations, eliminating the need for frequent connections.

Applications

The Pliospire PE 12 is typically used in electrical installations, machine building, and industrial automation. It protects cables and wiring from mechanical influences such as pressure, friction, or minor impact loads. Due to its flexibility, it is particularly suitable for applications where cables need to be moved or bent, for example, on movable machine parts or in control cabinets. The red colour serves as an identifier and can be used in practice to distinguish between cable types or functions.

Functions and Features in Detail

The conduit is made of polyethylene (PE), a robust and chemically resistant plastic that offers high resistance to moisture and environmental influences. The spiral structure provides high flexibility while maintaining sufficient stability, allowing the conduit to be easily placed over cables without damaging them. The inner diameter range of 10 to 40 mm indicates that the conduit is suitable for a wide variety of cable diameters, adapting elastically to fit. The red-coloured surface is not only visually identifiable but also resistant to UV radiation, making it suitable for outdoor use, provided there is no prolonged direct sunlight exposure.

Technical Explanation

The spiral construction of the conduit ensures that it does not deform when bent or stretched, maintaining its structure. This prevents cables inside from being pinched or torn. The material polyethylene (PE) is known for its high chemical resistance, particularly against water, salt solutions, and many industrial chemicals. The red colour is a visual feature used in electrical installations to identify cables or types of protective conduits. The weight specification of 51 g per metre indicates that the conduit is lightweight and therefore does not add extra load to the installation.

Compatibility and Accessories

The Pliospire PE 12 is designed for cables with a diameter between 10 and 40 mm. It can be combined with other types of protective conduits, provided the mechanical and chemical requirements of the respective environment are met. Common practice includes securing the conduit at desired points using cable ties or conduit clamps. There are no specific accessories directly associated with this product in the manufacturer’s offering; however, standard installation components such as cable ties or screw clamps are commonly used in practice.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply sliding the conduit over the cables to be protected. Due to its spiral structure, it can be easily pulled over cables without damaging them. No special tools are required for installation, although it is recommended to secure the conduit at both ends using cable ties or screw clamps to prevent shifting. The length of 25 metres per package allows for efficient processing, especially for longer cable runs.

The packaging contains 25 metres of conduit, which is sufficient for larger installations. The total package weight of 1.275 kg is derived from the weight of 51 g per metre. The EAN number 3597470136270 serves for unique product identification in trade.

Operational Advantages

The conduit provides reliable mechanical protection for cables and wiring. Its flexibility and elasticity allow for easy installation and adaptation to various cable diameters. The chemical resistance of polyethylene ensures a long service life, especially in environments with moisture or minor chemical exposure. The red colour simplifies identification within the installation network, making maintenance and fault diagnosis easier. The low weight of 51 g per metre reduces the load on the installation and facilitates handling of the product.
