ÖLFLEX FD 90 single core cable from Lapp – A cable for secure connections
ÖLFLEX FD 90 single core cables are used wherever the secure cabling of electrical installations is required. They can be used to reliably connect existing main circuits, and even for connecting movable consumers. A comprehensive range of different cross-sections and core numbers facilitates installation in a wide variety of applications. Each application has different requirements in terms of the cable construction and the product properties. For test systems in the automotive industry, in vehicles and stationary fuel cell systems, wiring with these cables is the ideal solution, as they are specially designed for the power circuits of frequency converter-driven servo motors, such as those found in the main spindle drives of machine tools.
Single core wire for various installation requirements – ÖLFLEX FD 90
The cable construction of the ÖLFLEX FD 90 strands is comprised of bare copper wires. The ultra-fine wire complies with Class 6 conductor construction according to IEC 60228. The black core insulation and outer jacket consist of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and have a non-woven wrapping. The Lapp Kabel ÖLFLEX FD 90 is available in many versions, which differ in the number of cores and in cross-section. This enables uncomplicated and precise selection for the respective installation. The single core sheathed cable is highly flexible and has an outer diameter of 9.4 mm². The rated voltage for the domestic variant is 600V/1000V, and 600V for the variant approved for the global market, each with a test voltage of 4000V. The minimum bending radius of 7.5 times the outer diameter for moving installations and 3 times the outer diameter for fixed installations ensures damage-free installation.
Product properties of the ÖLFLEX FD 90 single core cable
Mechanically, the core has a low-adhesion surface and is highly oil-resistant. Therefore, it is ideally suited for applications in constant motion and in power track chains. They also provide a stable connection in harsh conditions and in outdoor areas as the cores are UV-resistant, weather-resistant and coolant-resistant. In terms of fire behaviour, the cable has flame-retardant properties according to IES 60332-1-2 and is self-extinguishing. The single core withstands temperatures from -5°C to 90°C and can therefore also be installed in robust assembly sections and in outdoor areas.
Applications in many industries with maximum connection security – ÖLFLEX FD 90
The ÖLFLEX FD 90 single core cable provides a reliable connection in many industries and applications. For example, it is used for the internal wiring of electrical and electronic equipment in switch cabinet manufacturing, where multi-core, shielded servo motor wires cannot be used due to space problems and the stipulated minimum bending radii. But the single core is also the right choice for use in automation, in plant and machine manufacturing and for constructing assembly lines, conveyor belts and material handling plants and in transfer lines. Machine tools and robotics top off the large spectrum of industries, in which Lapp Kabel provides a secure electronic connection.
