PFAS-Free

Application

The A 6 D series stands out with its adaptability and rugged design, ideal for challenging conditions. This round compensation or extension cable is built with Besilen® (silicone) insulation, featuring two solid conductors with aluminum foil shielding, rated for 1.5 mm², up to 180°C. Its Besilen® EM9 jacket acc. to EN 50363-2-1 + VDE 0207-363-2-1 provides excellent durability, thermal stability, and resistance to mechanical and environmental stress. The halogen-free design further enhances fire safety by ensuring low smoke and non-corrosive gas emission. The A 6 D series is equipped with aluminum foil shielding, a PETP foil wrapping, and a bare copper ground wire (0.5 mm²) to deliver reliable EMC protection and signal integrity, even in electrically noisy environments. Available as both a compensating and extension cable, it supports a range of thermocouple types including Type K, Type J, and Type T. This combination of thermal resilience, shielding performance, and robust construction makes it particularly valuable for both standard and specialized industrial applications.
