Control cable BiT 500 BLACK OR 8x2x2.5 SB2355

Control cable for demanding applications

The BiT 500 BLACK OR 8x2x2.5 control cable is a reliable solution for indoor and outdoor installations, as well as direct burial in soil. Constructed with copper conductors of 2.5 mm² cross-section, insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), it ensures safe and efficient transmission of control signals. The twisted pair design minimizes interference, while numbered conductors simplify identification during installation and servicing.

Construction and properties

The cable features high resistance to external factors, including oils (compliant with IEC 60811-404). Additionally, it meets fire resistance standards IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-3-24 (Category C), enhancing installation safety. The flexible design with Class 5 fine-stranded conductors facilitates routing even in confined spaces, making it an ideal choice for professional installers and end-users seeking a durable and secure solution.

Applications and benefits

This control cable performs excellently in:

• Industrial installations: where high reliability and immunity to interference are required.
• Building automation systems: for controlling lighting, heating, ventilation, and other devices.
• Machinery and equipment: as both power and control cable for moving components.
• Control systems: where signal precision and stability are critical.

Note the operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, enabling use across a wide range of environmental conditions. The minimum bending radius (107.5 mm for fixed installations and 215 mm for moving applications) ensures easy installation and minimizes the risk of cable damage during handling. The fire reaction class Fca further enhances safety during use.
