Download PDFApplication
The A 6 L series offers a flexible and robust option for control wiring across diverse applications. This round compensation or extension cable features Besilen® (silicone) insulation with two stranded conductors and aluminum foil shielding, rated for 1.5 mm², up to 180°C. It is built with a Besilen® EM9 jacket acc. to EN 50363-2-1 + VDE 0207-363-2-1, ensuring long-term durability and high resistance in demanding operating environments. Its halogen-free design supports enhanced fire safety and low smoke emission, making it suitable for use in areas with strict safety requirements. The A 6 L series is particularly suited for use as a compensating or extension cable in thermocouple applications, combining shielded construction with the ability to perform reliably under continuous thermal and mechanical stress. This makes it an excellent choice for reducing downtime and maximizing machine productivity.
