TOXFREE® N2XH flex cables are widely installed European power cables for electricity supply in 600/1000V…
TOXFREE® YMz1Kf provides safety for people and electronic equipment
The cable TOXFREE® YMz1Kf is an ultra-flexible LSZH power cable. It has the highest level of the European CPR regulation to ensure maximum possible safety in case of fire. It is therefore strongly recommended for use in projects in locations likely to concentrate large numbers of people.
DESIGN:
1 – Flexible electrolytic annealed copper conductor (class 5).
2 – Flexible cross-linked polyethylene insulation (XLPE).
3 – Flexible halogen-free flame-retardant polyolefin outer sheath, with low emission of smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire.
DESIGNED TO REDUCE INSTALLATION TIME
TOXFREE® YMz1Kf is an ultra-flexible power cable designed to meet the most demanding industrial requirements. Its great flexibility is great news for installers, who will find it simplifies their work when installing the cable in complex layouts.
This ease of installation not only influences the work of the technician carrying out the work, the flexibility of the cable also minimises the costs of the project, as the flexibility of the cable will save a lot of time spent on the project and consequently reduce the cost of labour.
Also noteworthy is its ability to not crack under vibration due to its flexible copper conductors.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
TOXFREE® YMz1Kf cable is highly flexible and has good resistance to maximum and minimum temperatures, impact, chemical attack and ultraviolet rays. A flexible cable such as this offers greater ease of handling and laying, as well as better adaptability to winding routes when laying. In addition, its easy-stripping jacket can save up to 30% in labour costs.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) ABOUT THE TOXFREE® YMz1Kf CABLE
What is a power cable?
Power cables are designed for permanent use and consist of one or more electrical conductors with a sheath. It is available in various constructions, materials and ratings for different applications.
What is the difference between a portable cable and a power cable?
A portable cable is designed for temporary power supply, whereas power cables are usually installed in permanent applications.
Which power cables are most commonly used?
Class 5 (flexible) copper power cable, such as TOXFREE® YMz1Kf. This type of cable is suitable for the transmission of electrical power in all types of industrial low-voltage connections, in urban networks, building installations, etc. The power cables consist of a copper conductor, a protective insulation and an outer sheath.
