DataMax Extreme Industrial Profinet cables are a two-pair shielded construction with 22AWG twisted pair conductors and 7/30 stranded tinned copper with color coded high-density polyethylene insulation.
Shielded constructions include both a tinned copper braid shield and aluminized polyester foil overall shield. The cable's outer jacket is pressure extruded Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) with excellent moisture, chemical, UV and weathering resistance, exceptional low temperature flexibility, and good flame and fire resistance.
DataMax Extreme Profinet cable supports Profinet conformance classes B and C, is UL Type PLTC rated, and designed for use in EtherNet/IP systems. The continuous flexing Profinet cable from AutomationDirect is available in cut-to-length 1-foot increments starting at $1.04 per foot (20-foot minimum) and has a 3-year warranty.

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
