Thermoplastic elastomer cables for outdoor weighing applications
HBM has developed thermoplastic elastomer cables to provide a high level of protection against weather and rodents. The cables are available on reels for easier installation and additional flexibility when installing outdoor weighing systems.
Outdoor weighing applications demand cables featuring sturdiness and long-term stability that are met by the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) cables developed by HBM, since they provide very high levels of mechanical protection when compared with PVC cables. The CAB1M variant of the cables features metal braid that can be needed as an additional deterrent from rodents.
The use of TPE cables eliminates the need for expensive special cable protection pipes while ensuring high system safety and reliability.
HBM also provides suitable installation material for a range of its products such as the C16 and HLC load cells, weighing modules C16/M and HLC/M and the WE2107 weighing electronics that complement the TPE cables for outdoor weighing applications.
