Its parallel side-by-side core arrangement keeps the cable compact in one bending plane, while the 5GM3 abrasion-resistant rubber sheath is intended for higher mechanical stress than a basic indoor festoon cable.<\/blockquote>\n  <p>The family covers three practical functions: <strong>FXG control<\/strong>, <strong>FXG power<\/strong> and <strong>FXG-D data \/ paired conductors<\/strong>. Screened branches are provided for applications that need an engineered EMC path. The supplied record identifies the type families as <code>NGFLG\u00d6U-J\/-O<\/code>, <code>(N)GFLCG\u00d6U-J\/-O (EMV)<\/code> and <code>M(StD)H\u00d6U (EMV)<\/code>.<\/p>\n  <p>There is an important rating distinction. The general record states <strong>U\u2080\/U = 300\/500 V according to DIN VDE<\/strong> and also states suitability for <strong>0.6\/1 kV<\/strong>. In the detailed matrices, the FXG control and power branches are marked <strong>0.6\/1 kV<\/strong>, while FXG-D data rows are marked <strong>300\/500 V<\/strong>. The exact branch, marking and applicable release must therefore be fixed before quotation.<\/p>\n  <div class=\"cards\">\n   <div class=\"card\"><div class=\"value\">180 m\/min<\/div><div>Maximum travel speed stated for the festoon application.

The cores are placed parallel side by side rather than built into a round multi-layer bundle. Core insulation is rubber compound <code>3GI3<\/code>; the outer sheath is abrasion-resistant rubber compound <code>5GM3<\/code>.<\/p>\n  <p>That arrangement is valuable where trolley clearance is limited and the cable repeatedly folds in one plane. The compact package can reduce the required festoon envelope, but it also makes installation discipline more important: a flat cable should not be allowed to roll onto its edge, twist between trolleys or be pinched by a clamp that was designed for round cable.<\/p>\n  <div class=\"scroll\"><table><caption>Construction details from the supplied FXG \/ FXG-D record<\/caption><thead><tr><th>Construction item<\/th><th>Supplied design detail<\/th><th>Why the item matters in service<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Conductor<\/td><td>Bare copper strands<\/td><td>Fine strands accommodate repeated movement; conductor resistance and heating still follow the selected cross-section<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Conductor class<\/td><td>Class 6 according to VDE 0295; \u226525 mm\u00b2 class 5<\/td><td>Use the correct class when reviewing flexibility and termination tooling<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Core arrangement<\/td><td>Cores or bundles parallel side by side<\/td><td>Creates the flat d \u00d7 B geometry and a preferred bending plane<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Core insulation<\/td><td>Rubber compound 3GI3<\/td><td>Thermal and flexing performance of the individual cores<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Core identification<\/td><td>According to VDE 0293-308: up to 5 cores coloured; \u22656 cores black with white numerals + GN\/YE<\/td><td>Avoids wiring errors during replacement and termination<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Outer sheath<\/td><td>Abrasion-resistant rubber compound 5GM3<\/td><td>Wear barrier against trolley contact, guide friction and industrial handling<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Screened EMV type 1<\/td><td>(N)GFLCG\u00d6U-J\/-O: braid of tinned copper wires, minimum coverage 80%<\/td><td>Low-impedance shield path only when bonding and termination are engineered<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Screened EMV type 2<\/td><td>M(StD)H\u00d6U: coated foil and wrapped tinned wire<\/td><td>Screen construction and termination method must be released together<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Colour<\/td><td>Black<\/td><td>Confirm marking, colour and batch identification on the final drawing<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div>\n  <p class=\"note\"><strong>EMV \/ EMC is a system property.<\/strong> A screen inside the cable cannot compensate for an interrupted shield termination, an unbonded trolley, a long pigtail or a poorly designed cabinet entry.

I normally freeze the mechanical duty first, then select the electrical branch, and only after that release the screen and termination details.<\/p>\n  <div class=\"grid\">\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>1. Confirm the movement<\/h3><p>Is the cable carried by a festoon trolley on one horizontal plane? Record travel length, trolley spacing, loop depth, speed, acceleration, braking and duty cycles. The supplied 180 m\/min value cannot be separated from those variables.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>2. Confirm the function<\/h3><p>Use the control matrix for 1.5 \/ 2.5 mm\u00b2 control schedules; the power matrix for 4\u2013120 mm\u00b2 multi-core power; and FXG-D for the two supplied paired-data constructions.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>3. Confirm voltage branch<\/h3><p>Do not quote from the family title alone. Control and power rows are marked 0.6\/1 kV; data rows are marked 300\/500 V. The selected marking and test file must agree.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>4. Confirm screen need<\/h3><p>Use screened rows only when the signal, drive, instrumentation or machine EMC assessment requires them. Specify braid versus foil\/wrapped-wire design, shield coverage, screen continuity and termination method.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>5. Confirm environment<\/h3><p>Check \u221230\u2026+85\u00b0C flexing, \u221240\u2026+85\u00b0C fixed, 90\u00b0C conductor service temperature, oil, ozone, UV, moisture and abrasive dust. Foundry and sewage-plant exposure often changes the sheath requirement even when the voltage stays the same.<\/p><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>6. Confirm load path<\/h3><p>Use the row\u2019s permitted tensile load as catalogue evidence, not as a free permission to suspend the cable from its copper. Design the trolley clamp, strain relief, end anchorage and service loop with a project safety factor.<\/p><\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <p class=\"note\"><strong>Practical comparison inside the family.<\/strong> Unscreened FXG is the compact power\/control choice where EMC is not the governing constraint. Screened FXG adds copper braid or foil\/wrapped-wire structure and therefore changes geometry, copper index, weight, clamp space and termination work.

service loop against the end restraint.<\/p>\n  <div class=\"grid\">\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>At installation<\/h3><ul><li>Verify d \u00d7 B against every trolley, guide and clamp.<\/li><li>Keep the

designated reinforcement, not to the conductors.<\/li><li>Keep shield bonding continuous on screened variants.<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n   <div class=\"box\"><h3>During commissioning<\/h3><ul><li>Run slowly and observe the first complete travel cycle.<\/li><li>Check that loops form evenly and do not touch rail hardware.<\/li><li>Measure conductor and shield continuity after

<div class=\"box\"><h3>During maintenance<\/h3><ul><li>Inspect sheath flattening, longitudinal cuts, abrasion and glazing.<\/li><li>Look for edge bite at trolley entries and end clamps.<\/li><li>Check
