Erflex Control Cables

The main task of these cables, which are designed to provide connection and control between two electrical devices, is to transmit electrical energy or signal. In addition to being used to command the functions of equipment, they are also used in situations where information continuity is required for management purposes. Uninterrupted control of the device is important in industrial equipment, and Erflex cables are the best choice for precision.

Erflex cables can be used as power and control cables:

• In instrument and control engineering,
• In the field of industrial electronics,
• In machine production for measurement and command purposes,
• In assembly and production lines,
• In ventilation / air conditioning systems,
• In mobile electrical devices (electrical tools, electrical household small goods)
• In fuel pumps,
• In the automobile industry,
• In energy stations,
• In the packaging industry,
• In machine tools,
• In industrial pumps,
• In conveyor belts,
• In places where mechanical stresses are low and medium with free movement

Control cables can be produced according to many standards such as Harmonized, German, Turkish and British. They can vary in a wide range of structures with PVC, Polyethylene, Halogen-Free Thermoplastic, Rubber elastomer and cross-linked polyethylene insulation, PVC, Halogen-Free Thermoplastic, Polyethylene, Thermoplastic Polyurethane and Rubber elastomer sheath and metal screen or armor. Operating voltages are usually had 300/500 V and rarely 0.6/1 kV. They can be used at operating temperatures from -50°C to +105°C, depending on the material used.

The Features of Control Cables

Due to their flexible structure, they can be easily installed in narrow corner turns. In particular, YSL… type cables can be produced in thinner wall thicknesses and smaller diameters than cables produced in line with harmonized standards, thanks to the strength of the insulation and sheath materials used in their structure. As an advantage of this situation, they provide ease of use in narrow spaces. Another contribution of the insulation material is that it provides high electrical performance at values such as insulation resistance and test voltage.

Compared to HFFR control cables, PVC cables can be used in damp or dry areas. In addition, it can be easily preferred in indoor and outdoor environments, but it is useful to confirm the features of the area to be used with our technical team. HFFR cables are more suitable for indoor use. If the HFFR cable needs to pass through the external environment due to installation way, the cable must be used in tube, pipe or conduit.

Control cables with copper screens can be used in EMC compatible devices. Metal screen density can be determined according to the isolation degree of the equipment to be used. However it varies according to the polymer material used, the operating temperatures of the control cables are generally between -40°C and +70°C. Although this temperature range is sufficient for standard uses, in special uses, the temperature range can be extended by using different polymer compounds.

Since command cables are mostly used in industrial environments, they are exposed to substances such as oil or chemicals. The resistance of these cables is demanded accordingly. The polymer mixtures used are designed considering their chemical resistance. Along with these, other environmental conditions can be taken into account and special services can be provided.

For each Erflex Control Cables on Erse website, it is stated on its own pages which of the above written ones it has. For more, you can contact our sales team.

Erflex Control Cables which have HFFR (Halogen Free Flame Retardant) insulating and sheathing are used in places where people are densely populated (such as hospitals, high residences, shopping centers, hotels etc.) and places in which it is required that there is no smoke and corrosive gases emitted by fire which threats to human and equipment health.

We have HFFR and PVC products classified under CPR (Construction Products Regulation) requirements. For detailed information, you can click on the CPR title on our website.
