2.14.4 Special-purpose cable
Use tow-chain cables in locations where the cable is subject to frequent or
constant movement in an industrial environment.
• SF/UTP cable
• Preferably 7-core stranded Litz conductor
• Cat. 5
• PUR sheath: zero halogen and high wear resistance
Use an armoured cable (rodent cable) for locations in the tropics or in
geographically remote facilities to protect the cables against termites and other
rodents.
Use a torsion cable, which can withstand twisting in a longitudinal direction,
especially for robotics applications.
