AS-i Profile Cable |

|
AS-i cables are specially designed for use in these low levels of plant automation and allow data and power transmission at the same time. The cable can be installed in equipment such as push buttons and sensors. Due to its profiled design it is resistant to polarity reversal and can be easily connected to the slave interfaces at any place.
The cable is available in two versions: with a yellow jacket (BW1979) for data and power transfer, and a black jacket (BW1980) variant for additional auxiliary energy.
The cable jacket is made of TPE.
An important value for the industrial application field is the high-flex life expectation for all AS-i profile cables: ten million cycles of repeated bending are possible without any signs of degradation.
Mechanically, this makes them absolutely comparable with rubber-jacketed cable variants - but it's the magic of TPE that guarantees important properties such as oil-resistance and the right level of fire protection along with high-flex performance.
