UNITRONIC® BUS ASI (TPE) 2x1.5 BK bus cable 2170231

UNITRONIC® BUS ASI (TPE) 2x1.5 BK cable – reliable communication in automation

The UNITRONIC® BUS ASI (TPE) 2x1.5 BK cable is a dedicated solution for wiring sensors and actuators in AS-Interface systems. It is suitable for both fixed installations and applications requiring occasional bending without tensile stress. Designed for communication at the sensor/actuator level, it provides a stable connection and reliable data transmission.

A key feature of this cable is its versatility. The version with a TPE jacket is characterized by high oil resistance, making it an ideal choice for industrial environments where contact with water-soluble coolants or other chemicals occurs. Additionally, the cable performs perfectly in areas with increased humidity.

Construction and application

The UNITRONIC® BUS ASI (TPE) 2x1.5 BK cable has been designed for demanding industrial automation applications. Its construction based on two cores with a cross-section of 1.5 mm² provides adequate current carrying capacity and minimizes voltage drop. The flat shape of the cable facilitates installation and aesthetic mounting. This is why installers will appreciate the convenience of working with this product, and end-users – the neat appearance of the installation.

The cable is used in:

• Wiring of sensors and actuators

• Fixed connections

• Occasional bending without tensile stress

• Humid and oily environments

• AS-Interface systems requiring high reliability

Advantages and benefits

• Oil resistance: The TPE jacket provides protection against damage caused by contact with oils and lubricants, extending the cable's life in harsh industrial conditions.

• Moisture resistance: Ideal for use in areas exposed to moisture or contact with water-soluble coolants.

• Versatility: Can be used in both fixed and dynamic installations (occasional bending).

• Flat shape: Facilitates cable routing and improves installation aesthetics.

• Reliability: Ensures a stable connection and minimizes the risk of communication interference.

• Core cross-section 1.5 mm²: Suitable for most AS-Interface applications, providing adequate current carrying capacity.
