PROFIBUS L2 Cable for TORSION and FESTOON Applications

Robotic Profibus Cables by HELUKABEL

Sheath Type: PUR + PVC | Manufacturer: HELUKABEL

Profibus L2 cables are specially designed for dynamic and high-flex industrial applications. These cables are available in two variants—designed for torsional (TORSION) movement such as in robotic arms, and festoon (FESTOON) systems used in suspended and moving equipment.
