Nexans’ HALEX cables do not contain halogens and, like PUR cables, are flame-retardant.

The new MOTIONLINE® HALEX cable series by Nexans is an alternative that not only is flexible, robust, drag-chain-capable and flame-retardant, but also entails low additional costs compared with PVC cables without having to compromise on functionality. In the past, operators who needed halogen-free (PVC-free) cables could only choose PUR cables, which offer outstanding mechanical performance but are significantly more expensive than PVC-sheathed cables. Additionally, it will help us to meet the target of reducing environmentally harmful PVC.

Nexans’ HALEX cables do not contain halogens and, like PUR cables, are flame-retardant. In contrast to PVC, they do not release any highly toxic or irritant gases in the event of a fire. The sheath permits small bending radii (at least 2 million cycles at 10xD) and is resistant to abrasion, oil and cooling lubricants. Nexans offers HALEX cables in the form of drag-chain-capable sensor, servo, bus, Industrial Ethernet, energy and control cables. Like other MOTIONLINE® cables, the design of products from the HALEX series can be adapted according to customer requirements.
