It's simple
Configure complete energy supply systems for short or long travels as well as for hanging applications. Simply select required cables to generate interior separation for your application, enter the specific and ambient parameters of your application, and the energy supply expert tool will propose suitable solutions for your energy supply system. Start the configuration of your energy supply in the shop for cable sold by the metre or ready-to-connect cables.
Select cable type
Select the desired type of cable in the chainflex® cable shop for cables sold by the metre or in the readycable® cable shop for ready-to-connect cables.
Filter cables
For unharnessed cables you can find the required cable using number of cores and conductor nominal cross section. In the case of ready-to-connect cables, you can choose according to manufacturer standards. Then filter for the required mechanical specifications.
Select suitable cable
With the selection of the appropriate cable, you will receive all the required detailed information. chainflex® cables are also available in various CAE databases.
