ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE AUTOMATION CABLES


Eland Cables launches Veriflex - its own range of automation cables


V


eriflex is a brand you will increasingly come to know as Eland Cables


launches its own range of industrial automation cables. Veriflex cables are all BSI Kitemark approved under a new rigorous testing programme from the British Standards Institution (BSI).


A NEW BENCHMARK Described by BSI as “a new benchmark in cable compliance”, the BSI Cable Batch Verification Kitemark sees cables extensively tested against British, European and international standards. It’s an accreditation that has only been achieved by one company, Eland Cables.


COMPLIANCE IS KEY Each batch of Veriflex cables is rigorously tested by Eland Cables’ ISO 17025 UKAS accredited in-house facility, The Cable Lab, in accordance with the BSI Kitemark protocols. Tests on component layers, as well as the complete cable, make up the key material tests, which are necessary to ensure that the cable properties match performance and construction expectations. These include vertical flame propagation, conductor resistance, and tensile and elongation in insulation and sheathing materials. It provides a framework for testing cables that otherwise have no over-arching standard and, as such, have been subject to growing concerns within specific applications. BSI technical certification expert, Paul


Turner, says: “The Cable Batch Verification Kitemark is applied to


products, including the Veriflex SY, CY and YY range of PVC and LSZH control cables, under strict UKAS test parameters and subject to BSI’s rigorous surveillance programme.


“The range of tests provide third-party assurance that cables meet relevant British and international standards for key safety criteria, making them fit for use in appropriate applications.” Turner continues: “The BSI Kitemark is one of the most recognised symbols of quality and safety and by certifying their cables against the scheme, Eland Cables can demonstrate that their cables meet the highest standards.”


DELIVERY WHEN YOU NEED IT Key alongside this rigorous testing programme is the speed of supply. Next- day availability for UK customers means the Veriflex range sets a new bar for the industrial process and control industry. Darren Clark, UK & Ireland sales


director at Eland Cables, explains: “There


are two things that are paramount to UK buyers of European industrial cables - quality and availability. Delays to delivery can mean delays in commissioning and pass-over times, which ultimately means wasted expense and critical project delays. Yet, until now, two-week lead- times have been considered the norm, whilst a lack of specific standards for manufacture has meant a cost-premium for confidence in quality.” Clark continues: “Ultimately it comes down to peace of mind. The industrial and automation sectors have suffered from an inconsistency in the quality of the cables they regularly use. With Veriflex cables available on a next-day basis, we aim to provide the continuity, consistency and confidence that will make a genuine commercial difference for customers.”
