The Pliospire PE 17 spiral conduit from Ses-Sterling is a flexible protective conduit made of polyethylene, specifically developed for use in electrical and IT installations. It provides mechanical protection for cables and wiring, particularly in areas where a certain degree of flexibility and mobility is required. The conduit is available in natural colour and is supplied in a packaging length of 25 metres. It is suitable for use in indoor environments as well as in protected outdoor areas, with the polyethylene (PE) material offering high resistance to environmental influences such as moisture and UV radiation.
Applications
The Pliospire PE 17 is commonly used in electrical installations, building technology, and industrial applications where cables and wiring need to be protected against mechanical damage, dust, or moisture. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring flexible yet stable cable routing, such as the installation of control wiring, data cables, or power supply lines in machines, systems, or building automation. The natural colour of the conduit allows for discreet integration into technical environments.
Functions and Features in Detail
The conduit features a spiral structure that ensures high flexibility while providing sufficient stability. The spiral design allows for easy bending and installation without the conduit losing its shape or deforming. The material thickness and construction ensure that cables inside the conduit are protected against mechanical stresses such as pressure, friction, or impact. The packaging length of 25 metres provides sufficient material for larger installations, eliminating the need for frequent connection points.
Technical Explanation
The protective conduit is made of polyethylene (PE), a thermoplastic polymer known for its high chemical resistance, resistance to moisture, and good ageing resistance. The spiral construction enables optimal flexibility, allowing the conduit to be used even in complex installations with multiple direction changes. The natural colour corresponds to a light, neutral grey-beige tone that blends well into technical installations. The weight of 60 g per metre is low, facilitating handling and installation, especially over longer sections.
Compatibility and Accessories
The Pliospire PE 17 is designed for cable diameters between 20 and 60 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of cable types, including data cables, power cables, and control wiring. It can be combined with other products from the Pliospire series to ensure consistent protective covering in complex installations. The use of cable conduit clips or mounting elements is recommended to secure the conduit at respective mounting points.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is carried out by simply sliding the conduit over the cables to be protected. The spiral structure allows for easy bending and adaptation to the specific routing. During installation, care should be taken to avoid excessive tension on the conduit to prevent damage to the internal cables. The use of mounting elements at the ends or intermediate points ensures secure fixation and prevents the conduit from shifting.
Operational Advantages
The protective conduit provides reliable mechanical protection for cables and wiring. The polyethylene material quality ensures long service life and resistance to environmental influences. The flexible structure enables easy and quick installation, reducing mounting time. The packaging length of 25 metres offers an economical solution for larger projects by minimizing the number of required connection points. The natural colour ensures discreet integration into technical environments.
