Xaver Bechtold 10138106 YSLY-JZ 5G4 mm² 50m ring Eca PVC control cable with numbered conductors content_copy

The control cable YSLY-JZ 5X4 from Xaver Bechtold is a flexible control cable for use in industrial plants. It is used to connect control devices on machine tools, conveyor and assembly lines, material handling systems, and in general plant engineering. The cable is designed for fixed installation and flexible application, and can be used with free movement without tensile stress and without forced movement guidance under moderate mechanical stress. It is suitable for use in dry, damp, and wet rooms.

Applications
This control cable is used in industrial electrical engineering where reliable signal transmission between control and drive components is required. Typical applications include machine controls in manufacturing, automation systems in assembly, and plants with movable components, where the cable is not subjected to tension. The cable is intended for indoor use, including environments with increased humidity or temporary wetness.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The cable consists of five conductors, each made of a bare, fine-stranded copper wire according to VDE 0295 Class 5. The conductors are insulated with PVC and marked according to VDE 0293-308. Marking is done with black conductors featuring a continuous numerical print, while the protective conductor is green-yellow. The conductors are stranded in layers to ensure even distribution of mechanical stress. 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, indicating the maximum voltage the cable can transmit continuously. The test voltage of 4000 V serves as a safety test to check insulation strength. Temperature ranges depend on movement: for moving applications, the range is -5 °C to +70 °C; for fixed installation, it is -40 °C to +80 °C. The bending radius is 4 times the cable diameter for fixed installation and 15 times for flexible use. Flame retardancy corresponds to test method B according to VDE 0472 Part 804 (equivalent to IEC 332-1), meaning the cable does not produce burning droplets during a fire test. The cable is largely resistant to chemical influences such as acids, alkalis, and certain hydrocarbon compounds.

Compatibility and Accessories
The control cable is designed for use in industrial control and automation systems. It 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 not supplied with additional components such as connectors, cable lugs, or tools.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is carried out by fixed routing or flexible arrangement, with bending radii to be observed. For flexible use, a bending radius of 15 times the cable diameter must be maintained; for fixed installation, a radius of 4 times suffices. The cable must not be installed under tension. Connection of the conductors is made using suitable connection elements appropriate for the insulation material (PVC). The conductor marking facilitates identification during installation.

Operational Advantages
The control cable offers high mechanical stability for flexible use and is resistant to chemical influences. The flame-retardant design increases operational safety. Clear conductor marking according to VDE 0293-308 reduces errors during installation and maintenance. The cable is suitable for use in various environments, including damp and wet rooms, increasing its versatility. The use of copper stranded wires according to VDE 0295 Class 5 ensures good electrical conductivity and flexibility.
