3M 3659 Series Flat Cable, 30m Cable Length, 300V Voltage - 3659-09


This flat cable is a screened, multi‑conductor solution designed for signal and interconnect tasks in industrial and electronic systems. Supplied on a 30 m length, it uses tin‑plated copper round conductors arranged at a 1.27mm pitch to provide orderly routing and screening for multi‑signal assemblies in control panels and equipment wiring.

Features and Benefits:


• 9 conductors provide multi‑signal connectivity in a single run
• 28 AWG conductor size offers Compact wiring without bulk
• 7‑strand round conductors deliver improved flexing performance
• PVC black sheath resists abrasion and environmental exposure
• Rated to 300V for use on low‑voltage signalling circuits
• Fire behaviour VW‑1 reduces flame propagation risk in enclosures

Applications


• Suitable for ribbon‑to‑board wiring in automation cabinets
• Ideal for screened signal runs in instrumentation arrays
• Used with harness assemblies in control‑system panels
• Can be used for interconnects in test and measurement rigs

What conductor construction aids flexibility during installation?


Each core comprises seven fine strands of tin‑plated copper, which increases pliability compared with solid conductors and helps withstand repeated bending during routing.

How does the screening affect electromagnetic performance?


The screened configuration reduces susceptibility to external interference and limits radiated emissions, improving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.

What temperature range can the cable operate within?


The cable maintains functionality from -20 °C up to 80 °C, supporting use in typical indoor industrial and equipment enclosures.

Which approvals indicate suitability for indoor building wiring use?


The cable meets UL CL2 and FT1 classifications along with AWM 20267 and AWM IIA/B standards, demonstrating compliance with recognised electrical and flame‑test criteria.
