II. Technical Specifications

A. Conductor Characteristics

The Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable uses bare copper conductors, which provide superior electrical conductivity while ensuring the cable remains flexible and easy to route.

The finely stranded construction (Class 5) enhances the cable's ability to handle frequent bending and movement, making it the perfect choice for applications where flexibility is crucial.

B. Insulation and Sheathing

The Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable features EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) insulation, which provides excellent electrical insulation and resistance to high temperatures.

The rubber outer sheath adds an extra layer of protection, making the cable resistant to abrasion, UV radiation, and oil, ensuring long-lasting durability in demanding environments.

C. Electrical Ratings

With a voltage rating of 300/500V, the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F is suitable for a wide range of applications, including household and office equipment.

The 2 kV test voltage ensures the cable can safely handle temporary voltage surges during normal operation.

D. Temperature Ratings

The Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable is suitable for use in a wide range of temperatures, with a minimum laying temperature of +5°C.

The cable can be used in environments ranging from -40°C to +60°C, which covers most residential and office environments, as well as outdoor spaces where the cable may experience temperature fluctuations.

E. Environmental Properties

The Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable is designed to withstand outdoor conditions with normal strain. While it is UV resistant, it is important to note that it is not intended for permanent submersion in water.

If your installation requires immersion, a different cable should be considered. It also has oil resistance, making it suitable for environments where oils or lubricants may be present.

F. Bending Radius

To ensure the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable performs optimally, the minimum bending radius should be followed according to DIN VDE 0298-4. Avoid tight bends and sharp angles during installation to prevent damage to the cable.

III. Standards and Compliance

By meeting internationally recognized standards, the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F 300/500V cable guarantees both safety and performance.

Compliance with these standards ensures that the cable will reliably perform in various household and office applications, protecting both the user and the electrical system.

B. Key Standards

These standards ensure that the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable is safe, durable, and reliable for use in indoor and outdoor environments. Adhering to these standards also ensures the cable meets the performance requirements for light-duty applications.

IV. Common Challenges and Solutions

A. Cable Damage from Kinking and Tight Bends

Solution: Avoid sharp bends and always ensure the cable is installed following the minimum bending radius specified in DIN VDE 0298-4. Proper cable management will prevent damage and ensure the cable’s longevity.

B. Outdoor Degradation

Solution: While the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F is UV resistant and approved for outdoor use under normal strain, avoid excessive exposure to harsh weather for prolonged periods. For environments with extreme weather conditions, consider a cable designed for more demanding applications.

C. Incorrect Application

Solution: Ensure that the Feichun OZOFLEX S05RN-F cable is used in applications where the mechanical stress is light. For applications requiring higher stress tolerance, choose a more robust cable.

D. Oil and Chemical Exposure

Solution: The cable is resistant to light oil exposure, compliant with IEC/EN 60811-404. For heavy chemical or oil exposure, consult the compatibility data to ensure proper cable selection.

E. Laying at Low Temperatures

Solution: The cable must be installed at temperatures above +5°C. Ensure that the minimum laying temperature is adhered to in order to avoid damage to the cable during installation.

V. Installation and Safety Recommendations

A. Proper Cable Sizing

Ensure the cable is properly sized for the current-carrying requirements of your devices. This will ensure that the cable operates safely without overheating.

B. Correct Connections and Terminations

Always use the appropriate connectors and ensure that all connections are secure. Poor terminations can lead to electrical faults, short circuits, or even fire hazards.

C. Regular Inspection

Regularly inspect the cable for signs of wear, cuts, or other damage. If the cable shows signs of deterioration, replace it promptly to prevent safety risks.
