Control cable ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G2.5 14/4C, 0.6/1 kV, Flexible, shielded, UV resistant 281404CY

Universal control cable for applications in the USA and Europe

The ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G2.5 cable is a versatile solution for wiring control circuits, both in industrial installations and inside machines. Designed to meet European and American requirements, this cable performs well in fixed and occasionally moving connections, offering reliability and flexibility. Its construction allows operation in harsh conditions, including wet, oily environments and at low temperatures (down to -25°C).

This cable is distinguished by its particular resistance to oils and flames, making it an ideal choice for use in machine tool and mechanical engineering applications. UL certification confirms its compliance with North American standards, opening the way for its use in this market. Double shielding with laminated aluminum foil and copper braiding provides effective protection against electromagnetic interference. This minimizes interference in control signals, which translates into stable device operation.

Construction and application

The ÖLFLEX® CONTROL TM CY 4G2.5 cable is characterized by copper conductors with a cross-section of 2.5 mm², insulation made of PVC/nylon and an outer coating made of PVC/TPE. The number of cores is 4 (including one protective conductor). The flexible construction makes it easy to install and route cables even in tight spaces. The cable is suitable for underground installations in the USA and for twisting applications, e.g. in wind turbines. It can be used both outdoors (taking into account the temperature range) and indoors.

The application of this cable includes:

• Wiring of control circuits between production plants
• Internal connections of machines
• Installations in cable trays (without protective conduit)
• Machine tool and mechanical engineering industry
• Wind turbines
• Underground installations (USA)
• Dry, wet and oily environments
