Flexible cable 500V UNIPUR 18G1 grey grey, PUR insulated 18407

Flexible control cable UNIPUR 18G1 – reliability in harsh conditions

The UNIPUR 18G1 cable is a proposal for professionals and demanding users who need a reliable and durable cable for use in various environments. Its construction based on high-quality materials, such as polyurethane (PUR) and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), guarantees long-term operation even in extreme conditions. This cable is characterized by exceptional flexibility, resistance to abrasion, cuts, and the effects of atmospheric factors, oils, and chemicals.

Construction and properties for demanding applications

The UNIPUR 18G1 cable has been designed to ensure maximum durability and safety. It consists of 18 stranded copper conductors, insulated with thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and surrounded by a durable polyurethane (PUR) coating. The conductors are twisted in parallel, which ensures optimal twist pitch and minimizes the risk of mechanical damage. Additionally, the cable is resistant to UV radiation and hydrolysis, making it an ideal solution for outdoor applications. A version with a protective conductor (G) or without it (x) is also available.

• Durable construction: Stranded copper conductors provide good conductivity and flexibility.
• Resistance to extreme temperatures: Operation in the range of -40°C to +90°C allows the cable to be used in difficult climatic conditions.
• High chemical resistance: Resistance to oils, greases, water, and atmospheric factors ensures reliable operation in various industrial environments.
• Flexibility: Allows easy installation and routing of the cable even in tight spaces.
• UV resistance: Ensures long-term outdoor operation.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0285-525-2-21 / DIN EN 50525-2-21 and has a CE certificate confirming compliance with the low-voltage directive 2014/35/EU.

Applications and technical specifications

The UNIPUR 18G1 cable is widely used in power tools (drills, circular saws), gardening equipment, portable motors, agricultural machinery, and refrigeration and construction installations. It is an ideal choice for professionals working in demanding conditions where reliability and durability are important. The outer diameter of the cable is approximately 15.1 mm and the cross-section of a single core is 1 mm². The rated voltage of the cable is 500V and the working voltage is 300/500V (depending on the cross-section). The minimum bending radius is 5x cable diameter for stationary installation and 10x cable diameter for flexible installation.
