Warnings:
1. The specified bend/flex radiuses are minimum values and must be
considered as a guideline only. Where frequent flexing is part of the
intended application, the installer must ensure an appropriate
bend/flex radius for the intended and foreseeable environmental
conditions.
2. Extreme cold temperatures considerably reduce cable flexibility.
Appropriate life testing must be carried out to determine/confirm the
expected service life and inspection and maintenance schedule.
