VDE Cross-Reference: Drop-in Alternative for ÖLFLEX CLASSIC 115 CY 4G1.5 VDE 0250
The nominal outer diameter (OD) of a LAPP ÖLFLEX CLASSIC 115 CY 4G1.5 VDE 0250 four-conductor shielded control cable (Article number 1136304) is precisely 8.2 millimeters (0.323 inches), representing one of the most compact shielded multi-conductor control cables available in the industrial market. This exceptionally small diameter represents the deliberate design philosophy behind the CLASSIC 115 series: eliminating the inner protective sheath layer found in many competing control cables, thereby minimizing overall cable diameter while maintaining complete EMC shielding through a high-coverage tinned copper braided shield. The cable contains exactly four conductors, each with a 1.5 square millimeter cross-sectional area (the 4G1.5 designation), with one conductor specifically designated as the green-yellow protective earth/ground conductor per VDE 0293-308 color coding standards. The total copper conductor mass is approximately 100 kilograms per kilometer, while the complete assembled cable including PVC insulation, outer sheath, and braided copper shield weighs only approximately 135 kilograms per kilometer—among the lightest shielded four-conductor cables available for control applications. This compact, lightweight design makes the ÖLFLEX CLASSIC 115 CY ideally suited for space-constrained installations such as densely wired control panels, measurement and control technology systems, data processing equipment, and industrial machinery where cable routing must navigate tight spaces and equipment enclosure penetrations with minimal material volume.
