Control cable ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G1 18/4C, 0.6/1 kV, Flexible, shielded, UV resistant 281804CY

Universal control cable for use in Europe and the USA

The ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G1 18/4C cable is a versatile solution for wiring control circuits, both in industrial plants and inside machines. It is suitable for both fixed and occasionally moving installations. Its construction and properties make it suitable for medium mechanical loads, as well as for harsh environmental conditions.

The cable is designed to meet the specific requirements of the North American market, as confirmed by the UL certificate. This allows it to be used in the USA for wiring industrial machines and machine tools, even in open installations without additional conduit protection. It maintains flexibility even at low temperatures (down to -25°C), which is particularly important in demanding applications. The possibility of use outdoors (in Europe and the USA) and underground (in the USA) expands its range of applications.

Construction and properties ensuring reliability

The ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G1 18/4C cable stands out with its advanced construction, which guarantees high reliability and durability. Copper conductors made of fine strands provide flexibility and resistance to material fatigue. PVC insulation with a nylon jacket (PA skin) protects against mechanical damage and the influence of chemicals. Double shielding – laminated aluminum foil and copper braid – provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, which is crucial in precision control systems. A durable PVC outer jacket provides resistance to oils, moisture and UV radiation, allowing the cable to be used in a wide range of weather conditions.
