Product overview

NGFLGOEU Cable for Fast, Repeated Festoon Travel

NGFLGOEU flat festoon cable supplies low-voltage power and control to crane trolleys, machine tools and moving material-handling equipment. Its parallel flat construction is intended for frequent bending in one plane, helping cable loops track predictably in a properly engineered festoon system.

NGFLGOEU, NGFLGÖU and NGFLGOU are three spellings of the same flat rubber cable designation: NGFLGOEU writes the Ö as OE, while NGFLGOU simply drops the umlaut.

The 300/500V family includes NGFLGOEU-J and NGFLGOEU-O arrangements for power, control, bus and individually screened circuits. Bare flexible copper conductors, EPR rubber insulation and a black chloroprene-rubber outer sheath support demanding indoor or outdoor duty. The source data lists resistance to oil, ozone, UV and moisture, with flexible operation from -35°C to +80°C.

  • Electrical: 300/500V rated voltage and 2.5kV AC test for 5 minutes
  • Mechanical: maximum tensile load 15 N/mm²; torsion is not permitted
  • Selection: configurations from control cores and power cores to screened pairs and screened power variants

Use the port and festoon cable range to compare moving-cable options. For other installation modes, review the YSLTOE-J reeling cable or PUR-HF festoon cable. Final suitability depends on the exact configuration, carrier geometry, bend radius, travel speed, tensile load and operating environment.

Construction

NGFLGOEU Cable Construction

Illustrative NGFLGOEU family cutaway with individually screened elements and parallel power cores.
ConductorBare electrolytic copper; extremely finely stranded Class 6 up to 25 mm² and finely stranded Class 5 from 35 mm², as stated in the supplied source.
InsulationEPR rubber compound 3GI3, with material reference to DIN VDE 0207 Part 20.
Core identificationUp to 5 cores: green/yellow for -J or black for -O, plus black, blue, brown and grey. More than 5 cores: black with white numbers.
Optional individual screenTinned-copper wire braid; source-listed coverage approximately 60% for shielded cores and approximately 80% for twisted and shielded pairs.
Core arrangementParallel; configurations above 12 cores use parallel bundles.
Outer sheathBlack chloroprene-rubber compound 5GM3, with material reference to DIN VDE 0207 Part 21.
Conductor class by size: 1.5 to 25 mm² extremely finely stranded class 6, 35 mm² and above finely stranded class 5, both to DIN VDE 0295. The maximum conductor resistances in the reference table below are the class limits for each size.
Applications

Applications and Operating Boundaries

Flat festoon cable loops on an overhead crane trolley system
Flat festoon cable loops on an overhead crane trolley system.
Typical uses include trolley festoon systems, overhead cranes, gantry cranes, movable machine-tool sections and material-handling equipment where the cable bends frequently in one plane.
  • Indoor and outdoor festoon routes exposed to ozone, UV and moisture
  • Moving power and control circuits exposed to high mechanical stress
  • Screened control, bus or power circuits where the selected configuration includes the specified braid
Do not select this cable for torsional duty. Gantry reeling operation is listed as not applicable. For trolley festoon systems, the supplied data gives guidance up to 180 m/min and recommends manufacturer consultation above 180 m/min. Carrier spacing, loop depth, clamp design, bend radius and cable tensile load must be checked for the actual system. If the trolley requires a round construction, compare (N)GRDGOEU-J/-O round festoon cable for general power, control or bus circuits, or (N)GRDGCGOEU-J screened festoon cable for an overall-screened FC/VFD motor supply.

UL Style 4540 reference application

In the UL Style 4540 reference the cable is described as an energy and control cable for hoisting gear, transportation systems and machine tools, in dry, damp and wet rooms and outdoors, where resistance to oils, fats and chemical influences is required. That reference is written for medium mechanical stresses; where a festoon system imposes more than that - high travel speeds, short loops or heavy carriers - give the duty with the enquiry so the construction can be confirmed against it.

For a flat cable the bending radius is taken on the thickness, the smaller outer dimension, because that is the plane the cable bends in: a 4 × 2.5 mm² cable at up to 7.8 mm thick needs at least 39 mm. The number of webs in the table is how many parallel bundles the cores are twisted into before being laid flat.
