The Profinet Type A, Type B, and DP cables from Helukabel have earned a Power-Limited Tray Cable–Exposed Run (PLTC-ER) certification. The original PLTC certification allowed the products to extend outside of the cable tray by 6 ft (1.8 m). With the upgraded PLTC-ER certification, these products can extend up to 50 ft (15 m) outside of the cable tray without additional protection, such as conduits or armoring. Each of these cables is rated Category 5e and can be used in environments that vary in temperature between -40°F and +176°F (-40°C to +80°C). The cables are also UL recognized under PLTC-ER 75°C according to UL 13 for the U.S. and listing type CMG 75°C according to UL 444 for the U.S. and Canada.
