Control cable BiT 500 BLACK OR 5x1.0 SB2167

Control cable BiT 500 BLACK OR 5x1.0 – a reliable choice for control and power systems

The BiT 500 BLACK OR 5x1.0 control cable is a flexible copper wire designed for a wide range of applications in electrical installations. It will work both in buildings and outdoors, as well as in harsh industrial conditions. The cable is designed for installers and users who value safety, durability and ease of installation.

Construction and properties

The BiT 500 cable features a solid construction. It has five cores with a cross-section of 1.0 mm², made of copper, which ensures good electrical conductivity. The cores are insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and the entire cable is surrounded by a black outer coating of the same material. Core numbering facilitates identification and correct connection. The cable is flexible, making it easier to route in tight spaces and minimizing the risk of damage during installation. Additionally, the cable is oil-resistant according to IEC 60811-404 – a feature particularly important in industrial environments exposed to contact with oils.

Application and benefits

The BiT 500 BLACK OR 5x1.0 cable is ideal for:

• Control installations: in circuits controlling electrical and mechanical devices.
• Powering low-power devices: e.g. sensors, valves, controllers.
• Moving connections: in machines and equipment operating continuously.
• Laying inside buildings: in dry and humid rooms.
• Laying outdoors: weather resistance allows the cable to be used outdoors as well (after taking appropriate precautions).
• Laying in the ground: the cable is suitable for direct burial in the ground (after taking appropriate precautions).

The cable meets the requirements of PN-EN 50575 (CPR) and has a fire reaction class of Fca, which guarantees a high level of fire safety. Additionally, the cable is flame retardant according to IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-3-24 (cat. C), which increases its reliability in the event of a fire. This gives the installer confidence that they are using a product that meets stringent safety standards.

Key product features:

• Rated voltage: 300/500 V – universal application in most low-voltage installations.
• Flexibility: makes it easy to route the cable even in difficult installation conditions.
• Oil resistance: ensures the durability of the cable in industrial environments exposed to contact with oils.
• Flame retardancy: increases the safety of the installation and minimizes the risk of fire spreading.
• Core numbering: facilitates identification and correct connection of wires.
• Wide operating temperature range: from -40°C to +80°C – allows the cable to be used in various climatic conditions.
