Control cable ÖLFLEX® FD 855 P 18G2,5, 300/500 V, Flexible, PUR, UV-resistant 0027375

Robust control cable for dynamic applications

The ÖLFLEX® FD 855 P 18G2.5 cable is a flexible solution for transmitting control signals in demanding conditions. The polyurethane (PUR) construction provides exceptional mechanical and chemical resistance, making it an ideal choice for use in moving machine parts, chain guides and outdoor environments. The cable remains flexible even at low temperatures, guaranteeing reliable operation even in harsh conditions.

Construction and properties

The cable is characterized by a solid construction designed for long-term operation in dynamic applications. Made of fine-stranded copper conductors, it provides good flexibility and resistance to material fatigue during repeated bending. Core insulation made of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) provides high electrical insulation, and a synthetic fiber braid protects against mechanical damage. The outer PUR jacket is resistant to abrasion, tearing and the action of mineral oils and many chemicals. Additionally, it is UV resistant, allowing it to be used outdoors.

Applications and benefits

The ÖLFLEX® FD 855 P 18G2.5 cable finds wide application in various industries:

• Industrial automation: ideal for connections in control systems, robotics and conveyors.
• Mechanical engineering: will work in construction, agricultural and processing machines.
• Energy industry: can be used in photovoltaic installations and other applications related to renewable energy.
• Food industry: thanks to its chemical resistance, it can be used in environments requiring contact with aggressive substances.
• Outdoor applications: UV resistance and weather resistance allow installation outdoors.

Thanks to its construction, this cable offers a number of benefits:

• High flexibility: allows easy routing of cables in tight spaces and dynamic applications.
• Mechanical resistance: ensures long-term reliability even under high mechanical loads.
• Chemical resistance: allows use in aggressive industrial environments.
• UV resistance: allows use outdoors without risk of material degradation.
• Wide operating temperature range: ensures reliable operation even at low temperatures (down to -40°C).
