Xaver Bechtold 10130806 YSLY-JZ 18x1.0 mm² 50 m ring Eca PVC control cable with numbered conductors content_copy

The control cable YSLY-JZ 18X1,0 from Xaver Bechtold is a flexible control cable for use in industrial electrical engineering, particularly in plant construction, machine tools, conveyor and assembly lines, as well as material handling systems. It is designed for fixed installation and flexible application, where it can be used with free movement without tensile stress and without forced movement guidance under moderate mechanical stress. The cable is suitable for use in dry, damp, and wet rooms, making it applicable in a wide range of industrial environments.

Applications
This control cable is used in industrial automation technology, where it transmits signals between control devices, sensors, actuators, and other components. It is particularly suitable for installations where flexible movement of the cable is required, but no continuous tensile load or forced guidance is present. Possible applications include cabling of machines in manufacturing, logistics, or packaging industries.

Functions and Features in Detail
The cable has 18 conductors with a cross-section of 1.0 mm², each marked with a continuous numerical print. The conductors are black, and the protective earth conductor is green-yellow, complying with VDE 0293-308 marking standards. The conductors consist of bare, fine-stranded copper wires according to VDE 0295 Class 5, ensuring high flexibility and durability under moving applications. The conductors are insulated with PVC and laid in layers, ensuring even distribution of mechanical stress.

Technology Explained Simply
The cable sheath is made of PVC and is grey in colour. The designation, dimensions, and VDE registration number are printed on the sheath, enabling easy identification and documentation. The rated voltage is 300/500 V, sufficient for most industrial control applications. The test voltage is 4000 V, highlighting the electrical strength of the insulation. The cable is flame-retardant according to VDE 0472 Part 804, Test Method B (equivalent to IEC 332-1), meaning it is either non-flammable or only limitedly flammable during a fire and does not release conductive drops. The temperature resistance ranges from -5 °C to +70 °C for moving applications and from -40 °C to +80 °C for fixed installation. The bending radius is 4 times the cable diameter for fixed installation and 15 times for flexible application, defining its mechanical load capacity.

Compatibility and Accessories
The control cable is designed for use in industrial control systems and can be connected with standard connectors, cable lugs, and other connection elements suitable for PVC insulation. The conductor marking according to VDE 0293-308 enables clear identification and simplifies installation and maintenance. The cable is largely resistant to the effects of chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and certain hydrocarbon compounds, making it suitable for environments with low chemical exposure.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is typically carried out by pulling the cable through conduits, cable ducts, or by direct routing along walls or machines. In flexible applications, care must be taken to ensure the specified bending radius is not exceeded to guarantee the cable’s service life. Connections of the conductors are made using appropriate connectors or cable lugs, ensuring electrical insulation and mechanical strength of the connection.

Operational Advantages
The control cable YSLY-JZ 18X1,0 offers high mechanical and thermal load capacity, clear conductor marking, and flame-retardant construction. The use of fine-stranded copper wires according to VDE 0295 Class 5 ensures high flexibility, extending service life under moving applications. Chemical resistance against acids, alkalis, and hydrocarbons increases safety in industrial environments. Clear conductor marking simplifies installation and maintenance and reduces error sources.
