Control cable BiT 500 (St) 18x2x1.5 SB0459

Control cable BiT 500 (St) 18x2x1.5 – a reliable choice for control systems

The BiT 500 (St) 18x2x1.5 control cable is a flexible, shielded cable designed for indoor installation. The construction with stranded copper and PVC insulation ensures durability and safety. This cable is particularly recommended for use in control systems, automation and in machines and devices.

A key feature of this model is double protection – aluminum foil shielding with an earthing wire minimizes electromagnetic interference, which translates to stable operation of connected devices. Numbered cores facilitate identification and connection, reducing installation time. This cable is characterized by high flexibility thanks to the stranded core construction, which makes it easier to route in tight spaces and dynamic applications.

Construction and parameters for professionals

The BiT 500 (St) 18x2x1.5 cable was designed with demanding industrial applications in mind. It has 36 cores (18 twists of 2 cores), each with a cross-section of 1.5 mm². The core insulation is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and the outer jacket is also made of PVC, providing resistance to mechanical damage and external factors. The rated voltage U is 500 V, and U0 – 300 V. The cable meets the fire resistance standard IEC 60332-1-2.

• Shielding: Aluminum foil with an earthing wire provides effective protection against electromagnetic interference.

• Cores: Stranded, flexible copper cores ensure easy installation and resistance to material fatigue.

• Core numbering: Facilitates identification and correct connection of individual wires.

• Temperature range: The cable retains its properties over a wide temperature range from -40°C to +80°C.

• Minimum bending radius: For moving installations – 242 mm, for fixed installations – 121 mm.

Application and benefits for the end user

The BiT 500 (St) 18x2x1.5 cable is an ideal solution for:

• Electrical installations in industrial and commercial buildings

• Connecting sensors, controllers and other automation devices

• Powering machines and production equipment

• Monitoring and alarm systems

• Applications requiring high reliability and resistance to interference

Thanks to the shielding, the cable minimizes the risk of errors in device operation caused by electromagnetic interference. The flexible construction makes it easy to route cables even in difficult installation conditions. Durable PVC insulation ensures long-term operation without fear of mechanical damage or the influence of atmospheric factors (indoors). Reaction to fire class Eca provides additional safety in accordance with European standards.
