Product Information

Full details

The LAPP ÖLFLEX Spiral 400 P cable is designed for demanding environments in machinery, mechanical engineering, and automatic control systems, offering a shielded solution with minimal dimensions and high restoring forces. Its key benefit is its enhanced chemical, oil, and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for harsh industrial conditions. A potential consideration is its limited unextended length which may require careful planning for dynamic applications.

FAQs

What is the maximum extension length for this spiral cable?

The LAPP ÖLFLEX Spiral 400 P cable can extend up to three times its original, unextended length.

Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?

The cable is UV resistant, making it suitable for applications exposed to sunlight. However, its primary design is for industrial machinery and control systems, and its operating temperature range for flexing should be considered.

What kind of chemicals is this cable resistant to?

It offers high resistance to benzols, benzines, and other substances listed in Appendix T1. It is also resistant to oils and abrasion.

Can I use this cable for both control and power applications?

Yes, the ÖLFLEX Spiral 400 P is designed as a control and power cable.

What is the core size and number of cores for this specific model (MPN 70002622)?

This model features 2 cores with a core size of 0.75 mm².

What is the temperature range for flexing this cable?

The cable is designed for flexing within a temperature range of 5 to 50 °C.

How should I clean the cable?

Clean the cable with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents unless confirmed to be compatible.

Troubleshooting

Cable not extending or retracting properly

Check if the cable is over-extended beyond its 3x unextended length limit. Ensure there are no obstructions or kinks in the cable path. Verify it's not being used outside the 5-50°C flexing temperature range.

Signal interference or data loss

Confirm that the cable's shielding is properly grounded at both ends. Ensure the cable is not routed too closely to high-power electrical sources or sources of strong electromagnetic fields.

Damage to the sheath from chemical exposure

Review the specific chemicals present in the operating environment against the resistance list in Appendix T1. If the chemical is not listed as resistant, the cable may be unsuitable. Replace the cable if significant degradation is observed.

Cable feels stiff or lacks elasticity

The cable might have been subjected to temperatures outside its optimal flexing range for an extended period. Allow the cable to rest at room temperature for several hours. If the issue persists, the material's properties may have been permanently affected.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, and abrasion.
  • Durable construction with high mechanical strength.
  • Flexible spiral design allows for significant extension.
  • Shielding provides protection against interference.
  • Compact size is beneficial for space-limited applications.

Cons

  • The spiral design's effective length is limited by its maximum extension.
  • Requires specific knowledge of chemical resistance for optimal application.
  • Limited to a specific temperature range during flexing.
  • Not designed for extreme temperatures outside of the specified range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the cable is installed within its specified temperature range of 5-50°C for flexing. The drawn ends should be connected according to standard electrical practices for signal and power transmission. Due to its spiral nature, avoid over-extending the cable beyond three times its unextended length to prevent damage and maintain its restoring force.

Compatibility: This cable is designed for use in machinery, mechanical engineering, and automatic control systems. It is compatible with control and power applications requiring shielded cables. The specific core size (0.75 mm²) and number of cores (2) should match the requirements of the connected equipment.

Care: Clean the cable sheath with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or cleaning agents that are not listed in Appendix T1, as these could degrade the polyurethane material. Inspect the cable periodically for any signs of physical damage or wear, particularly at the points of maximum extension.
