It features 5 copper conductors with a single conductor configuration, includes a ground, and is rated at 1,000 V with a PVC jacket. The cable is oil and grease resistant, complies with CE 2014/35/EU standards, and has minimum bend radius factors of 4 x OD for fixed, 6 x OD for flexible, and 7.5 x OD for e-chain applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CHAINFLEX CF31-100-05 motor cable used for?

The CHAINFLEX CF31-100-05 is a continuous flexing power cable designed for variable frequency drives (VFDs) in industrial automation. It is used in cable carriers (e-chains), robotic arms, and moving machinery where repeated bending occurs. Its oil and grease resistance makes it suitable for factory floors and machine tools.

What are the specifications of the CHAINFLEX CF31-100-05 cable?

This cable has 5 copper conductors, 8 AWG each, with a single conductor configuration and a PVC jacket rated at 1,000 V. It includes a ground conductor and meets CE 2014/35/EU standards. Minimum bend radius factors are 4 x OD for fixed, 6 x OD for flexible, and 7.5 x OD for e-chain applications.
