Product Information

Specification

About:

• This cable is designed for electrical applications that require both flexibility and durability. The "CY" designation often refers to a type of cable that is shielded with a copper braid, while "LSF" stands for Low Smoke and Fume, indicating that the cable is made with materials that emit minimal smoke and toxic fumes when exposed to fire.

Also Known As:

• Shielded Flexible Control Cable
• Copper Braid LSZH Cable
• CY Screened Flexible Cable

Application:

• These flexible cables are designed for industrial control and instrumentation circuits and interconnections between mobile and fixed equipment. Incorporates a collective tinned copper wire braid screen for electrical protection. Cables are not recommended for applications where cable is likely to be subjected to repetitive flexing and/or twisting e.g. robotics, reeling drum, cranes etc. Especially for use in areas where fire would create dense smoke and toxic fumes causing a major threat to life and equipment.

Construction:

• Generally in accordance with BS6500 and VDE0250
• Conductor: : Flexible (Class 5) copper conductors to BS EN 60228, plain
• Insulation: Zero halogen insulation
• Core Identification: Cores will be number printed, in a contrasting colour, on black low smoke zero halogen insulation. All cables of three core and above will incorporate a green/yellow earthcore in the outer layer
• Binder Tape: p.e.t.p. tape
• Tinned copper wire braid. Minimum coverage 70%
• Grey LSF outer sheath Type LTS3 to BS7655 section 6.1. RAL 7000
• Flame retardant to BS EN 60332-1-2
• Voltage Rating: 300/500 V
• Temperature Rating: 80°C maximum conductor operating temperature

Add suffix -KL to part number for cables up to 3 core having coloured cores, or -HKL for 4 and 5 core cables as follows: e.g. A4LN-C003-KL or A4LN-C005-HKL.

Standards:

• This cable likely adheres to specific international or national standards, ensuring its safety, quality, and performance. These standards can include:

• Voltage rating (300/500V)
• Fire performance standards
• Electrical and mechanical performance criteria

Features:

• Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH): Reduced hazardous emissions in fire conditions
• Electromagnetic Shielding: Provides protection against external electrical noise and minimizes the cable's own emissions
• Flexibility: Designed to be flexible for use in dynamic applications
