What is a measuring system cable?

Marco Thull | 8. July 2019

On servo drives, an encoder (encoder or resolver) is fitted for the precise determination of position. This electronic control signal must be taken to the drive control system in order to be evaluated there. So-called measuring system cables are used for this. These cables are to be made in accordance with the electrical stipulations of […]

Why do you not have any TP stranded cores in the torsion BUS cables?

Marco Thull | 8. July 2019

In the case of twisted-pair stranded cores, the advantage is that the cores do not change their distance from each other when the entire stranded cable is twisted and untwisted during torsional movement. As a result, the transmission quality of the bus system is retained. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!

Why Ethernet cable for 600 V?

Marco Thull | 8. July 2019

As regards an Ethernet cable for 600 V, its use in a 600 V network is not so important because this voltage does not occur in an Ethernet system. What is important is that it is permissible to lay this cable next to another cable with such a high voltage level on the cable tray […]

Up to what length do bus cables function?

Marco Thull | 8. July 2019

This depends on the bus system, the cable quality, the number of bus nodes and the specifications of the respective user organisations. Example: Profibus DP maximum stub length with 13 to 14 nodes = max. 90 m. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!
