ÖLFLEX Robust is the control and connection cable which is simply scuff proof. In more precise terms the cable is resistant to water, oil, grease, chemicals and fluctuations in temperature and can withstand all these external influences time after time. The black outer sheath makes it UV, radiation, temperature (up to 80°C) and humidity resistant.
Many cables around the world are made from an outer sheath that is manufactured from PVC, PUR and rubber. ÖLFLEX Robust is not produced using any of these. It is made from P4/11, a high tech compound developed by the Lapp Group in its laboratories and tested under the harshest conditions.
Applications
The outstanding characteristics of this cable make it very versatile. The following are a few examples of where it has been used:
* In vegetable, synthetic and mineral-based fats, waxes and where oils are used.
* In the process of water, sewage water and hot water containing fat solvents.
* In machine tools for metal working and in washing plants.
* In conditions where the cable will be exposed to heat, wind and weather.
* In all types of machines used for building materials, lifting gear, conveyors, compost and sewage plants.
