Engineer’s summary: choose H05VVC4V5-K when a European specification requires a HAR-marked, EMC-screened control cable in an oily or wet environment. Limits: +70 °C maximum, no flexing below −5 °C, no burial, outdoor only with UV protection.

1. Reading the designation

Harmonised code: H harmonised, 05 300/500 V, V PVC insulation, V PVC inner sheath, C4 copper braid screen, V5 oil-resistant PVC sheath, K fine-wire conductor for fixed installation.

Standard constructions, 3 G 0.5 to 12 G 2.5 mm².

HAR

European harmonised approval.

≈85 %

Braid coverage.

Oil + water

Suitable for water-oil mixtures.

2. Construction

The inner sheath cushions the cores and keeps the braid round so its coverage stays uniform; the oil-resistant outer sheath protects the braid from coolant emulsions.

4. EMC and termination

1. Bond the braid 360° with EMC glands; avoid pigtails. 2. Size glands for the full d_min … d_max range of the harmonised standard. 3. Segregate screened control cables from unscreened power cables. 4. For ground-loop-sensitive analogue signals, follow the equipment manufacturer.

5. Full dimension and weight tables

All 34 constructions are listed, grouped by cross-section. Outer diameters are the min–max range of the harmonised standard; bending radii use the maximum diameter.

Routine tests

Conductor resistance, 3 kV voltage test, insulation resistance, braid continuity, dimensions within harmonised limits, marking.

Type tests

IEC 60332-1 flame, oil immersion of the sheath (EN 50363-4-1), ageing, cold behaviour.

Delivery documents

Approved datasheet, test report per drum, HAR marking, batch number and length marking.

10. FAQ

What does H05VVC4V5-K mean?

H = harmonised; 05 = 300/500 V; V = PVC insulation; V = PVC inner sheath; C4 = copper braid screen; V5 = oil-resistant PVC sheath; K = fine-wire conductor for fixed installation (class 5).

Why ‘K’ and not ‘F’?

In the harmonised code, K denotes a flexible conductor intended mainly for fixed installation; the cable still allows free movement without tension.

Is it suitable for coolant areas?

Yes. The special oil-resistant sheath is suitable for wet rooms including water-oil mixtures.

Why diameter ranges?

EN 50525-2-51 specifies min–max limits. Choose EMC glands whose clamping range covers the full range; bending radii here use d_max.

How should the braid be terminated?

360° with EMC glands at both ends for drive and switching noise; avoid pigtails.

How many cores?

Up to 34 cores in 0.75–1.5 mm², 12 cores in 0.5 and 2.5 mm².
