Shielded twisted pair control/data transmission cable YKSLYekw-P-Nr 0.6/1 kV 16x2x1.5 mm² black 0491 018 05

Shielded Control Cable – Reliability in Automation and Power Systems

This shielded control/data transmission cable, designated as YKSLYekw-P-Nr, is specifically designed for energy control, protection, and automation systems, as well as for electrical power supply. Its paired-twist construction minimizes mutual interference between signals, which is critical in precision installations. It performs reliably in both industrial and commercial building applications.

Construction and Properties

The cable stands out for its flexibility and mechanical durability, facilitating installation and ensuring long-term operation. A common static shield effectively protects against electromagnetic interference—both externally induced and self-generated by the cable itself. Conductors are made of soft stranded copper (optionally tin-plated), guaranteeing excellent conductivity and flexibility. Conductor insulation is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), with insulation colors compliant with standard PN-92/T-90321 (IEC 60189-2); in the -Nr version, colors are black/brown with white-numbered pair markings. Paired conductors are twisted and arranged in the core, wrapped in polyester tape, ensuring order and simplifying circuit identification. Additionally, the cable features a common grounding conductor beneath the shield. The outer sheath is made of black rubber-grade PVC; other colors are available on request.

Applications and Benefits

• Interference Reduction: Shielding minimizes the impact of electromagnetic interference on transmitted signals, ensuring stable operation of control and measurement systems.
• Flexibility: The flexible design simplifies cable routing even in confined spaces and complex pathways.
• Mechanical Durability: Provides resistance to damage during installation and operation.
• Versatility: Suitable for both stationary and mobile applications within buildings.
• Chemical Resistance: The cable sheath exhibits good resistance to oil exposure.
• Special Versions Available:
  • Oil-Resistant (YKSLYekw-P-O): For environments exposed to petroleum-based substances (e.g., fuel stations).
  • Enhanced Flame Retardant (YnKSLYekw-P): Complies with PN-EN 60332-3 standard for limiting flame propagation.
  • Reinforced Sheath (YvKSLYekw-P): For outdoor installations and direct burial in soil.

This cable features a conductor cross-section of 1.5 mm² and 32 conductors, making it suitable for a wide range of applications requiring reliable data transmission and power supply.
