Complete your pilot valve setup with this reliable cable from Festo. As well as making connections, it reduces holding current and offers circuit protection to boost electrical safety. An IP65 rating means the wire is protected against dust and is able to withstand low-pressure water jets from all directions, making it suitable for use in harsh conditions. The outer sheath is made of TPE-U(PUR), which has the high tensile strength needed to maintain hold under the compressive stress caused by impact from machines. This cable has a CRC rating of 3, so it's corrosion-resistant and ideal for use in humid environments.

Applications
• Medical equipment • Automotive industry • Beverage production
What's the advantage of having a reduced holding current?
A lower holding current keeps the circuit from overheating. When a circuit is heated up, its resistance increases which leads to a decreased flow of current than is required to power the circuit, resulting in loss of efficiency.
