Oil-resistant fixed installation cables are a key solution in the world of industrial and electrical wiring.
But what exactly does “fixed installation” mean? And what are their main applications? In this article, we will explore these topics while highlighting some of the distinctive products offered by SADA CAVI.
What Does Fixed Installation Mean?
This type of cable refers to a stable and permanent installation where the cable is not subject to movement or bending once placed. These cables must ensure mechanical resistance, long-term durability, and the ability to operate under varying environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures or exposure to industrial oils.
The Difference Between Fixed and Flexible Installation
The primary distinction between fixed and flexible cables lies in their ability to withstand mechanical stress. While fixed installation cables are designed to remain static, flexible cables are suitable for continuous movement, such as those found in cable drag chains.
SADA CAVI’s Fixed Installation Cables
With extensive experience in the sector, SADA CAVI offers a comprehensive range of shielded and unshielded fixed installation cables designed to meet diverse needs. Among the most distinctive products are:
- SADAOIL® 750: Perfect for command and control applications, these multipolar cables are resistant to industrial oils, flame-retardant, and suitable for use in dry or humid environments. The PVC sheath provides protection in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +80°C, ensuring stability and safety. Insulation rating: 450/750 V.
- SADAOIL® 1000: Similar to the SADAOIL® 750, these cables are also flame-retardant and oil-resistant. They are suitable for dry and humid environments and feature a PVC sheath that withstands temperatures between -40°C and +80°C. Insulation rating: 0.6/1 kV. These cables are also suitable for direct underground installation.
- SADATRAY CONTROL CABLE TC-ER MTW CIC: Compliant with UL/CSA standards, this cable is resistant to oils and high temperatures (-40°C to +90°C). It is ideal for applications following American standards such as NFPA 79 and NFPA 70 “National Electrical Code.”
- SADASERVO® CY: Designed for motor power supply where electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is required. The shielding is engineered to minimize electromagnetic interference. These cables are also resistant to industrial oils.
Practical Applications
Fixed installation cables are used across various sectors, including:
- Industrial Plants: For powering and controlling machinery.
- Electrical Panels: Ensuring stable and secure connections.
- Automation Systems: Where reliable data and signal transmission is crucial.
Fixed installation cables are essential for static setups that require stability, durability, and resistance to external agents. Thanks to its broad product range, SADA CAVI can meet diverse needs, providing reliable solutions for multiple applications.
