Shielded twisted pair control/data transmission cable YKSLYekw-P-Nr 0.6/1 kV 4x2x1.0 gray 0491 015 10

Shielded Control Cable – Reliability in Automation and Power Systems

This shielded control/data transmission cable, designated as YKSLYekw-P-Nr, is designed for use in electrical control, protection, and automation systems, as well as for electrical power supply. Its paired-twisted construction minimizes mutual interference between transmitted signals, which is critical in precision installations. Thanks to a common static shield, the cable effectively protects against electromagnetic interference both within and outside the installation.

This cable stands out for its high flexibility and mechanical durability, facilitating installation and ensuring long-term reliability even under harsh conditions. Its ability to be installed permanently or used in moving connections makes it a universal solution for installers. Additionally, the cable sheath is resistant to oils, expanding its range of applications.

Construction and Design Features

The YKSLYekw-P-Nr cable features a carefully engineered design ensuring optimal performance:

• Conductors: Flexible, multi-stranded, twisted from soft copper wires (optionally tin-plated). Class 5 according to PN-EN 60228 guarantees appropriate flexibility and connection durability.
• Insulation: Made of insulating polyvinyl chloride (PVC), available in colors compliant with PN-92/T-90321 (IEC 60189-2) for the YKSLYekw-P 0.6/1 kV version, or black and brown with white-numbered pair markings for the YKSLYekw-P-Nr 0.6/1 kV version – simplifying conductor identification during installation.
• Twisted Pairs: Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs and then layered into the cable core.
• Shielding: The cable core is wrapped with a polyester tape and then protected by a common static shield made of laminated metallic foil. Beneath the shield is a grounding conductor made of tin-plated copper wires.
• Sheath: Made of black rubber-grade polyvinyl chloride (PVC); other colors available on request.

This design ensures effective protection against interference and stable signal transmission. The conductor cross-section is 1 mm², with a total of 8 cores – this configuration enables the transmission of both control and power signals.

Special Versions and Compliance with Standards

Manufacturer TECHNOKABEL offers specialized cable versions tailored to specific requirements:
