Control cable BiT 500 C 20x2x0.5 SB4188

Universal control cable for diverse applications

The BiT 500 C 20x2x0.5 control cable is a flexible solution designed for internal installations. Its construction featuring twisted pairs, protected by a shielding braid, ensures reliable transmission of control signals and protection against electromagnetic interference. This makes it ideal for both industrial automation systems and building installations.

Construction and properties

The BiT 500 C cable features a design tailored for demanding operating conditions. Copper conductors with a cross-section of 0.5 mm², insulated with PVC, are twisted into pairs to minimize the risk of interference. The entire assembly is surrounded by a copper braid shield, enhancing resistance to electromagnetic interference. The outer PVC sheath provides additional mechanical and chemical protection. Notably, the cable exhibits oil resistance—a critical feature in industrial environments. Thanks to Class 5 conductors (fine-stranded, flexible), the cable is easy to install and route even in confined spaces.

Applications and benefits

This control cable is suitable for a wide range of installations:

• Industrial automation: Machine and equipment control, transmission of measurement signals.
• Building installations: Alarm, fire protection, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.
• Precision equipment: Internal connections within electronic and laboratory devices.
• Control panels: Interconnections between components within control panels.

The integrated shield ensures stable signal transmission even in environments with high levels of interference. The flexible construction simplifies cable routing, while oil resistance enables use in harsh industrial conditions. Additionally, compliance with IEC 60332-1-2 confirms its fire resistance—a crucial safety feature. The approximate outer diameter of the cable is 18.6 mm, and its weight is 455 kg/km.
