Pepperl+Fuchs introduces Weld Slag Resistant POC Cables.  Weld slag resistant cables are extremely robust and flame retardant, providing long life and reliable operation in high temperature welding applications.  The temperature resistance cable jacket can withstand up to 150 degrees C and the flexible structure withstands high levels of mechanical stress, making POC cables ideal solution for use in weld cell locations in automotive industry applications. 

“Weld slag and the effects of molten metal flash from welding operations can quickly damage standard sensor cables leading to shorter service life and reduced productivity.  Our new weld slag resistant cables use a cable jacket material, which enables them to deflect the punishment handed out in harsh welding applications.  As a result users will benefit from long, problem-free service life and reduced downtime,” says Dave Rubinski, Product Manager.
