Profibus cable L2 1x2x0.64 for cable chains 81003

PROFIBUS L2 cable for industrial automation systems

This violet PROFIBUS L2 cable, catalog number 81003, is designed for reliable communication in industrial automation systems. It is particularly recommended for use in cable chains, where high flexibility and resistance to mechanical damage are required. The cable's twisted pair construction provides good resistance to electromagnetic interference, which is crucial in industrial environments.

Construction and properties

The cable is characterized by a 1x2x0.64 mm² construction, which means a single pair of conductors with a cross-section of 0.64 mm². The conductors are made of un-tinned copper (Cu), and the insulation made of foamed polyethylene (PE) provides good dielectric properties. Additionally, the cable has an aluminum foil and a copper braid for effective shielding against interference. The whole is surrounded by a durable polyurethane (PUR) coating, which guarantees resistance to abrasion, oils and other chemicals found in the industrial environment. This makes it an ideal solution for dynamic applications where the cable is exposed to continuous bending and movement.

Application and compliance with standards

The PROFIBUS L2 cable is widely used in industrial control and automation systems, especially where high data transmission reliability is required. It is compatible with DIN 19245 T3 and EN50170 standards, which guarantees its correct operation in standard PROFIBUS installations. This cable works perfectly in applications requiring flexibility and mechanical resistance – typical for working in cable chains. Additionally, it meets the requirements of halogen-free materials according to IEC 60754-1, which increases safety.

• Interference resistance: Shielding with aluminum foil and copper braid minimizes the impact of electromagnetic interference on data transmission.
• Flexibility: The construction with stranded wires provides high flexibility, which facilitates installation and cable routing in tight spaces and in cable chains.
• Mechanical strength: The PUR coating protects the cable from abrasion, tearing and the influence of chemicals.
• Safety: Compliance with IEC 60754-1 guarantees no release of toxic gases during combustion.
• Wide application: Ideal for industrial control and automation systems requiring reliable PROFIBUS communication.
• Temperature range: The cable maintains its properties over a wide temperature range from -30°C to +70°C during operation and installation.
