Cable for chain guides, 1000 V UL shipflex 512 25G1,5/AWG16 grey, halogen-free, shielded 19898

Cable for chain guides – reliability in demanding conditions

This shielded chain cable HELUKABEL SHIPFLEX 512 is a solution designed for operation in harsh conditions, especially in marine and industrial applications. The cable is characterized by high flexibility, resistance to external factors and compliance with strict standards. It is ideal where reliability and safety of connections in continuous motion are crucial.

Construction and properties

The cable is characterized by a solid construction. Made of multi-wire copper conductor (class 6), it provides excellent flexibility and resistance to material fatigue during repeated bending. The conductors are insulated with a special material, and their color scheme (black with white numbering) facilitates identification. A screen made of tinned copper wires minimizes electromagnetic interference, which is crucial in control and automation systems. The polyurethane outer jacket provides resistance to abrasion, oils, chemicals and extreme temperatures.

It is worth paying attention to several important features:

• Halogen-free: meets the standards DIN VDE 0482 part 267 / DIN EN 50267-2-1 / IEC 60754-1, which increases fire safety.
• Radiation resistance: up to 100x10⁶ cJ/kg (up to 100 Mrad), allowing the cable to be used in environments exposed to ionizing radiation.
• Flexibility at low temperatures: maintains its properties down to -40°C (according to IEC 60092-350, Annex E).
• Oil resistance: meets the requirements of IEC 60092-350, Annex F.
• Compliance with standards: meets the Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU (CE marking).

Applications and benefits

The SHIPFLEX 512 cable is primarily used in:

• Chain guide systems: ideal for powering mobile devices in machines and robots.
• Marine applications: thanks to its resistance to atmospheric factors and salt water.
• Shipbuilding industry: where high reliability and durability of connections are required.
• Industrial automation: as an element of control and power systems.

By using this cable, you can count on:

• Long service life: solid construction and high-quality materials guarantee reliable operation for a long time.
• Safety: halogen-free coating minimizes the risk of toxic gas formation in the event of a fire.
• Protection against interference: the screen effectively suppresses electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable signal transmission.
• Easy installation: the meter-long cable makes it easy to adapt to specific installation needs.

Additionally, it is worth remembering the manufacturer's recommendation regarding the installation of a large round clamping sleeve with a copper braid at both ends of the screen for optimal EMC – electromagnetic compatibility.
