Is electrical noise killing your machine’s signal? Do you hate cables that crack in oil or break when you bend them?You know the pain. You install a cheap cable in your control cabinet. At first, it works fine. But soon, the sensors start acting crazy. The PLC reads wrong data. You check the wires, and they look okay from the outside. But inside, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is messing everything up. Or maybe your team is installing wires in a tight space. The cable is too stiff. They force it, and the copper conductor snaps. Now you have downtime. You have extra labor costs. And you have an angry client.You need a cable that fights noise. You need a cable that bends like a snake but stays tough. You need the LIYCY 3-core 0.75 sq mm shielded cable. This is not just a wire. It is a shield for your data. It is built for the real world. And yes, we import it directly from Germany.
Why This Specific Cable Solves Your Headaches
This cable is a star in the Lapp Kabel UNITRONIC family. It is the “LiYCY” model. The “Li” means low-frequency instrument cable. The “Y” means PVC insulation. The “C” means it has a copper braid shield. The “Y” at the end means it has an outer PVC sheath.Why does this matter to you? Because most cheap cables skip the “C” part. They have no shield. In a factory with big motors and VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives), that is a disaster. The LiYCY cable has a tin-plated copper braid. This braid covers at least 80% of the cable. It acts like a cage. It stops outside noise from getting in. It also stops your signal from leaking out.The “Y” materials are special, too. We use PVC that resists oil, acid, and alkali. If your factory has hydraulic oil on the floor, this cable won’t rot. It stays strong.
Technical Specs You Can Trust
We don’t hide numbers. Here is exactly what you get. These specs match the DIN VDE 0812 standard.
| Feature | Detail | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Conductor | 3 Cores, 0.75 mm² | Perfect size for 10A signals. Not too thick, not too thin. |
| Material | Bare Copper, Fine-Wire Stranded | Class 5 flexibility. It bends easily without breaking. |
| Insulation | PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) | Standard, safe, and durable color coding. |
| Shielding | Tin-Plated Copper Braid | Blocks EMI/RFI noise. Keeps data clean. |
| Outer Sheath | Grey PVC (RAL 7032) | Oil-resistant and flame-retardant (IEC 60332-1). |
| Voltage | 300/500 V | Safe for standard control circuits. |
| Test Voltage | 1.5 kV | Proves the insulation is super strong. |
| Resistance | 26 Ω/km | Low resistance means less energy loss. |
| Weight | Approx. 65 kg/km | Heavy enough to be durable, light enough to pull. |
| Temperature | -40°C to +80°C (Fixed) / -5°C to +70°C (Flex) | Works in freezing warehouses or hot machine rooms. |
| Outer Diameter | 6.3 mm | Slim design fits in small cable chains. |
Real-World Use Cases
Where should you use this imported German signal cable? Use it anywhere you need precision.
CNC Machines and Servo Motors
CNC machines create a lot of electrical noise. If you use a standard wire, the feedback loop gets jittery. The LiYCY shield keeps the position data accurate. Your cuts will be precise.
PLC and Sensor Wiring
Connect your Proximity sensors, Photoelectric switches, and PLC inputs. The grey color helps your electricians identify signal wires easily. They won’t mix them up with 24V power wires.
Audio and Data Buses (Low Freq)
While it is not for high-speed internet, it is great for RS-232, RS-485, and simple audio signals in broadcast or measurement tech.
Tight Spaces and Drag Chains
The minimum bending radius is small (about 6 times the diameter). You can snake it through tight drag chains (cable carriers) without damaging the core.
The “German Quality” Difference
You might ask, “Why buy this instead of a local cable?”It is about consistency. When you buy Lapp Kabel from Germany, you know the copper is pure. You know the PVC mix is exactly right for flexibility. Local cables often change their material mix to save money. One batch is good. The next batch is brittle.With LiYCY, you get a product that lasts 10 years. The outer jacket is pebble grey (RAL 7032). It looks professional in any control panel. It is flame-retardant. If there is a short circuit spark, it won’t spread the fire.Also, it is RoHS compliant. You don’t have to worry about toxic heavy metals. It is safe for your workers and the environment.
Installation Made Easy
Your electricians will love this cable.
- Stripping: The PVC insulation strips cleanly. No messy residue.
- Bending: It is very flexible (Class 5). You don’t need big tools to bend it around corners.
- Grounding: The tin-plated shield is easy to solder or crimp. You can ground it easily to the cabinet for 100% noise protection.
- Printing: The core colors follow DIN 47100. Usually, you will see Brown, Blue, and Black/Grey. This makes troubleshooting super fast.
Pricing and Availability
We know you care about cost. But we also know you care about value. A cheap cable that fails costs you 100x more in downtime.We supply this cable in various lengths.
- Sample/Small orders: We can supply 100m coils.
- Bulk Projects: We supply 500m or 1000m drums.
The price depends on the copper market (LME – London Metal Exchange). But because we import in bulk, we keep our margins low. You get a premium German product at a fair price.Ready to stop the noise and fix your wiring issues?Don’t guess which cable you need. Tell us your application. Are you using it for motors? Sensors?
