Control and power cable PVC, shielded F-CY-JZ 18G1 mm² grey, black numbered cores acc. to DIN VDE 0293-334 16381

Shielded control and power cable – reliability and flexibility in every circuit

This flexible shielded cable F-CY-JZ 18G1 mm² is an optimal solution for both professional installers and end-users where reliable signal and power transmission is required. The cable is designed for use in control circuits in mechanical engineering and as a signal cable in computer and electronic systems. Made of high-quality materials, it ensures long-lasting and safe operation.

Construction and properties

The cable is characterized by a careful construction that translates into its unique properties. The use of special PVC both as insulation for the cores and as the outer jacket guarantees resistance to mechanical damage, chemical factors and oils. Copper, stranded (class 5) cores, twisted in parallel, provide flexibility and facilitate installation even in tight spaces. In addition, the cores are black with white numbers in accordance with DIN VDE 0293, which facilitates the identification of individual wires. The shielding braid effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMC), which is crucial in sensitive applications. The insulating foil reduces the outer diameter of the cable, making installation easier.

Application and technical parameters

The F-CY-JZ 18G1 mm² cable is perfect for installations requiring high reliability and resistance to interference. Thanks to the wide range of operating temperatures (-40°C to +80°C), it can be used both indoors and outdoors (with appropriate protection). The rated voltage of 300/500 V allows it to be used in various electrical circuits. The Eca reaction to fire class ensures compliance with European safety standards.

Key technical parameters include a cross-sectional area of 1 mm², a number of cores of 18 and an outer diameter of approximately 14 mm. Core insulation and the jacket are made of PVC, and the shielding provides a braid. The cable retains its properties in the temperature range from -40°C to +80°C, and its rated voltage is 300/500 V. The reaction to fire class is Eca, and core identification is done using numbers.

This cable complies with DIN VDE 0285-525-2-51/DIN EN 50525-2-51 standards, which confirms its high quality and safety of use. It is important to ensure a wide, extensive contact of the copper braid with the terminals (e.g. cable glands) on both sides for optimal protection against EMC interference.
