The Ölflex servo 7TCE from Lapp

Flexible resistance

Lapp Group USA has introduced its Ölflex servo 7TCE, a highly flexible, oil-resistant servo cable with TC-ER approval. Suitable for use directly on industrial machines and in cable trays, this new cable is designed to eliminate the need for two different types of cable or the need for conduit. The product is described as offering a rugged design, suited to harsh environments. The 7TCE features a specially formulated thermoplastic elastomer jacket, as well as cross-linked XLPE insulation, to withstand temperatures up to 105°C. In addition to being UV and oil resistant, the 7TCE is flame retardant and will also resist harsh cleaning solutions.

The cable’s low-capacitance design enables long distance runs with limited losses in current and voltage. The nominal voltages are 600V (UL TC-ER) and 1,000V (UL flexible motor supply) with a minimum bend radius of 6× cable diameter. The 7TCE passed all cold and crush impact tests and is compliant with North American and European standards, including UL TC- ER, c(UL) CIC, CE and RoHS. The 7TCE is suitable for motor connections between servo controllers and motors on industrial machines, tray applications and moving machine parts, assembly handling and integrated production systems.
