2YSLCYK-JB 2YSLCYK-JB+3

Application

These cables are double shielded, large gauge size, PVC motor supply cables  Polyethylene insulation over very

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, paper and 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. For medium mechanical

stresses found indoors in dry, moist and wet areas. For 2YSLCYK-JB ,the black UV- resistant jacket also allows

for outdoor use and for direct burial applications.
