Lapp announces additional approvals on its OLFLEX® Tray II cable (formerly TRAYFLEX® II) with open wiring approval. This oil resistant, flexible control cable is Tray Rated, making it ideal for use in applications that require a cable to be connected from a cable tray to equipment on the manufacturing floor.

OLFLEX® Tray II has superior flexibility for easier installation and moderate movement. This, together with the cable’s worldwide approvals including UL Type TC, CSA, and CE compliance, and now with the addition of c(UL), OLFLEX® Tray II becomes the only flexible cable with a PVC jacket to have both UL and CSA TC approval, thus making OLFLEX® Tray II a flexible alternative to common stationary TC cables. In addition, this cable now has UL Type DP-1 approval, for use under raised floors of computer rooms in accordance with Article 645.5(D)(5) of the National Electrical Code. Data processing cables became a requirement of the NEC in 1994. This modification of Article 645 no longer permits the use of Appliance Wiring Material (AWM) under the raised floor of a computer room.

With a wide temperature range from -20° to +90°C and a specially formulated oil resistant black PVC jacket, this multi-conductor cable is designed for use in all electrical equipment in a variety of environments, including ones with damp, dry, and/or wet conditions. A shielded version (OLFLEX® Tray II CY) is also available, for when EMI/RFI is a concern.
