Structure of the FC Food Cable
FC Food Cable 6XV1 830-0GH10
The FC food cable 6XV1 830-0GH10 complies with the specification EN 50170,
cable type A, with solid copper cores (22 gauge). The inner structure of the cable
(cores, filler, shielding) is identical to that of the standard cable.
The structure of the cable allows the use of the FastConnect (FC) stripping tool for
fast stripping of the PROFIBUS cable (see Section 4.2.3).
Properties
The characteristics of the polyethylene (PE) sheath differ from those of the
standard LAN cable as follows:
S
Improved resistance to abrasion
S
Improved resistance to oil and lubricants
S
Resistant to UV radiation
S
Resistant to water and steam
S
The sheath material is flammable
Uses
The food cable with its PE sheath is particularly suited for use in the food,
beverages and tobacco industry. It is designed for fixed installation within buildings
(in-house cabling).
