Cable protection systems for rotary encoders

The tailor-made cable protection systems reliably protect encoder supply cables and signal lines against extreme conditions that prevail in heavy-duty application environments. Depending on the version they are designed to protect against high temperatures, mechanical impact loads, aggressive fluids as well as extreme environmental effects and weather conditions such as exposure to UV radiation and ozone. Protective hoses up to 30 meters in length and sealing inserts with 1 or 2-hole seals to accommodate different cable diameters facilitate a broad range of possible applications. Moreover, the integrated strain relief as well as the optional shielding element guarantee interference-free plant operations.

CP Cable Protection Systems by Hubner

Introduction:

Hubner Australia offers CP (Cable Protection) systems designed to provide optimum cable protection for rotary encoders in heavy-duty applications. These cable protection systems are tailor-made to meet different requirements and ensure the reliable and lasting protection of encoder supply cables and signal lines against extreme conditions.

Features and Benefits:

1. Optimum Cable Protection: Hubner’s CP Cable Protection Systems are specifically designed to protect encoder supply cables and signal lines in heavy-duty application environments[2]. These systems ensure the integrity and performance of the cables by safeguarding them against extreme temperatures, environmental influences, high mechanical impact loads, aggressive fluids, and other challenging conditions[3].
2. Tailor-Made Solutions: Hubner provides five different tailor-made cable protection systems to address various requirements[1]. These systems are designed with sealing inserts, integrated strain relief, and shielding elements to offer comprehensive protection for encoder cables. They can be customized in terms of length to suit specific installation needs.
3. Extended Lifetime: By utilizing Hubner’s CP Cable Protection Systems, encoder supply cables and signal lines are effectively shielded from harmful factors, resulting in an extended lifetime for the cables. This helps reduce downtime, maintenance costs, and the need for frequent replacements.
4. Application-Specific Safety: The responsibility for selecting and using the appropriate cable protection system lies with the system manufacturer. It is essential for the system manufacturer to ensure that the characteristics of the cable protection system meet their application-specific safety requirements[4]. Hubner’s CP Cable Protection Systems are designed to support unattended continuous operation.
5. Specialized Solutions: Hubner also offers the CP-SE Cable Protection System, which provides reliable and lasting protection against environmental influences such as saliferous or humid air, high UV levels, or ozone exposure[5]. This specialized system ensures the longevity and performance of encoder supply cables and signal lines in demanding environments.

Conclusion

Hubner’s CP Cable Protection Systems are designed to ensure optimum cable protection for rotary encoders operating in heavy-duty applications. These tailor-made systems offer reliable shielding against extreme conditions, helping to extend the lifetime of encoder cables and minimize downtime.
