2YSLCY-JB+3/2YSLCYK-JB+3

Applications

These cables are double shielded, large gauge size, PVC motor supply cables. Polyethylene insulation oververy fine stranded copper provides a low-loss transfer of power, excellent low capacitance performance and superior flexibility when compared to conventional PVC cables. The applications include frequency converters, motor runs, connections with high electromagnetic interference. Found in the automotive, paperand food industry, environmental technology, packaging industry, machine tools and handling equipment. The overall foil and braid shield offer excellent protection against electromagnetic and electrical interferences. This version substitutes the common single green/yellow ground wire for three symmetrical green/yellowground wires for improved EMC characteristics. For medium mechanical stresses found indoors in dry, moist and wet areas. For 2YSLCYK-JB+3, the black UV-resistant jacket allows for outdoor use and for direct burial applications.
