BS EN/IEC 60332-3 Standard Flexible Control Cable SY LSZH GSWB Cable
APPLICATION
Used as interconnecting cable for measuring, controlling or regulation in control equipment for assembly and production lines, conveyors and for computer units. Suitable for flexible use in conditions of light mechanical stress. Can be used outdoors when protected against direct sunlight, and in dry or moist conditions indoors. The braided screen offers mechanical protection and a level of electro-magnetic shielding. The galvanized coating helps protect against corrosion. For installations where fire, smoke emissions and toxic fumes create a potential risk to life and equipment.
SY control cables are not suitable for fixed wiring applications requiring compliance with the regulations set out in BS7671.
