Control cable BiT 500 (St) CH 5x0.5 SB9705

Shielded control cable – reliability and safety of installation

BiT 500 (St) CH 5x0.5 control cable is a high-quality cable designed for a wide range of applications in electrical installations. It is characterized by flexibility, resistance to external factors and ensures safe transmission of control signals. The construction with foil and copper braid shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference, which is crucial in precise control systems.

Construction and properties

The BiT 500 (St) CH 5x0.5 cable is distinguished by careful workmanship and the use of high-quality materials. It has five cores with a cross-section of 0.5 mm², made of copper, which guarantees good electrical conductivity. The cores are numbered for easy identification during installation. The core insulation is made of a material meeting high safety standards. In addition, the cable has a common screen in the form of an aluminum foil and a copper braid, which effectively protects against electromagnetic interference. The round shape of the cable makes it easier to route and install in tight spaces. The outer jacket of the cable is gray and made of a material meeting fire safety standards.

• Shielding: Aluminum foil and copper braid provide effective protection against electromagnetic interference, which is particularly important in control and automation systems.
• Halogen-free: The cable meets the standards regarding the absence of halogen (IEC 60754-1 and IEC 60754-2), which increases safety in the event of a fire – limits the emission of toxic gases.
• Fire resistance: Meets the requirements of IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-3-24 (cat. C), which provides additional safety in the event of a fire.
• Flexibility: Multi-wire core construction (class 5) provides high cable flexibility, making it easier to route even in difficult installation conditions.
• Wide temperature range: The permissible operating temperature of the cable is from -40°C to +80°C, which allows it to be used in various environmental conditions.
• Fire resistance: Reaction to fire class Dca according to EN 13501-6 and acidity class a1 provide a high level of fire safety.

Application

The BiT 500 (St) CH 5x0.5 cable finds wide application in:

• Traffic control installations
• Building automation systems
• Industrial machines and equipment
• Distribution panels
• Internal and external installations (taking into account environmental conditions)
• Where effective shielding against electromagnetic interference is required
• In places with increased fire safety requirements thanks to the halogen-free coating and fire resistance.

Thanks to its properties, this cable is perfect for both installations carried out by professionals and home applications requiring reliability and safety. The cable construction makes it easy to route even in tight spaces; the bending radius for fixed installations is approximately 35 mm, and for movable installations approximately 71 mm.
