Xaver Bechtold 10130106 YSLY-JZ 3G1.0 mm² 500 m-reel Eca PVC control cable with numbered conductors content_copy

The control cable YSLY-JZ 3X1,0 from Xaver Bechtold is a flexible control cable for use in industrial plants. It is used for control devices on machine tools, conveyor and assembly lines, material handling systems, and in general plant engineering. The cable is suitable for fixed installation and flexible application, particularly for free movement without tensile stress and without forced guidance, while tolerating moderate mechanical stress. It can be operated in dry, damp, and wet rooms, making it suitable for various industrial environments.

Applications

The cable is designed for use in production plants, manufacturing environments, and automation systems. It is particularly suitable for applications requiring a flexible yet robust connection between control devices and actuators. Use in rooms with increased humidity or occasional wetness is possible, as the cable is protected against moisture. The operating conditions include both stationary and moving installations, with mechanical loads in the moderate range.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The control cable consists of copper strands, which are bare, fine-stranded, and manufactured according to VDE 0295 Class 5. This ensures high flexibility and durability under frequent movement. The conductors are insulated with PVC and marked according to VDE 0293-308. The designation JZ means that the conductors are black and marked with a continuous digit print, including a green-yellow protective conductor. The conductors are stranded in layers, enabling even distribution of mechanical stress and improved flexibility. The sheath is made of PVC and is grey in colour. The designation, dimensions, and VDE registration number are printed on the sheath.

Technology Explained Simply

The rated voltage is 300/500 V, which is sufficient for most industrial control applications. The test voltage of 4000 V ensures electrical safety and insulation quality. The temperature ranges are -5 °C to +70 °C for moving applications and -40 °C to +80 °C for fixed installation. This enables use in environments with varying climatic conditions. The bending radius is 4 times the cable diameter for fixed installation and 15 times for flexible application, facilitating installation and movement of the cable. Flame retardancy corresponds to VDE 0472 Part 804, test type B (equivalent to IEC 332-1), ensuring limited flame spread in case of fire. The cable is largely resistant to chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and certain hydrocarbon compounds, making it suitable for industrial environments with chemical exposure.

Compatibility and Accessories

The control cable YSLY-JZ 3X1,0 is compatible with standard connectors and cable glands designed for PVC-insulated cables. It can be combined with other YSLY cables, particularly in installations using a uniform cable type for control systems. The JZ marking with continuous digit print and green-yellow protective conductor facilitates identification and wiring in complex installations. The cable is designed for use with electrical control devices, sensors, and actuators commonly used in industrial automation.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out by fixed installation or flexible arrangement, with bending radii to be observed. For moving applications, a bending radius of at least 15 times the cable diameter must be maintained to avoid material fatigue. For fixed installation, a bending radius of 4 times suffices. The cable can be installed in cable ducts, on trays, or openly. Connections are made using suitable connectors or cable lugs designed for a cross-section of 1.0 mm². Installation is carried out in accordance with applicable VDE and DIN standards.

Advantages in Operation

The control cable offers high mechanical robustness and electrical reliability. The fine-stranded copper strand ensures flexibility and durability under movement. The PVC insulation and sheathing provide protection against moisture, mechanical stress, and chemical influences. The flame-retardant design increases safety in case of fire. The clear marking of conductors with continuous digits and the green-yellow protective conductor simplifies wiring and maintenance. The cable is designed for use in industrial environments with moderate mechanical loads and variable climatic conditions.
