CY/SY/YY control cables are types of flexible control cables commonly used in industrial applications for transmitting control signals and power to various electrical equipment and machinery.
CY Control Cable
Voltage Rating
300/500V
Conductor
Class 5 flexible plain copper
Insulation
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Separator
PET (Polyester Tape)
Screen
TCWB (Tinned Copper Wire Braid)
Sheath
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Application
CY cables are commonly used in industrial automation, machinery control systems, and computerized equipment.
SY Control Cable
Voltage Rating
300/500V
Conductor
Class 5 flexible plain copper
Insulation
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Inner Sheath/Bedding
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Armour/Braiding
GSWB (Galvanised Steel Wire Braid)
Sheath
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Application
The steel wire braid or helix provides increased resistance against physical damage, making SY cables suitable for applications where the cable may be exposed to mechanical stress, such as in heavy machinery, robotics, and construction equipment.
YY Control Cable
Voltage Rating
300/500V
Conductor
Class 5 flexible plain copper
Insulation
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Sheath
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)/LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Application
YY cables are commonly used in applications where EMI protection is not a critical requirement, such as internal wiring in control panels, office equipment, and low-voltage applications.
Features
All three types of control cables, CY/SY/YY, are typically flexible and available in various conductor sizes and core configurations, including twisted pairs and multi-core versions.
They may have additional features like flame-retardant or oil-resistant properties, depending on the specific application requirements.
