Profibus Cable CF888001

PVC Bus Cable CHAINFLEX CF888

The CHAINFLEX CF888 bus cable is designed for low-load motion applications and is specifically engineered for use in motion chains (E-Chain). These cables are mechanically durable, with an outer PVC sheath that is flame-resistant and provides high-quality electrical signals.

Features and Technical Specifications:

Bending Radii:

In motion in E-Chain: Minimum 15 times the cable diameter (15 x d)

In flexible use: Minimum 12 times the cable diameter (12 x d)

In fixed position: Minimum 8 times the cable diameter (8 x d)

Operating Temperature:

In motion in E-Chain: From +5°C to +70°C (+41 °F to +158 °F)

In flexible use: From -5°C to +70°C (+23 °F to +158 °F)

In fixed position: From -15°C to +70°C (+5 °F to +158 °F)

Maximum Speed (v max): 3 meters per second (9.84 ft/s)

Maximum Acceleration (a max): 20 meters per second squared (65.6 ft/s²)

Movement Distance: 10 meters (32.8 ft)

Cable Structure:

Core: The core of the cable is made of pure copper conductors according to DIN EN 60228 standard.

Core Insulation: As per bus specifications.

Shield: The cable shield consists of aluminum/polyester tape and tinned copper braid providing 60% optical coverage.

Outer Sheath: Low-friction PVC blend, designed for use in E-Chain®. Color: Purple (similar to RAL 4001).
