Description and application

Armoured instrumentation cable, foiled individually and as a whole, XLPE insulation and PVC sheath. For the transmission of signals between equipment in industrial installations.

Design

  • Single shield
    Aluminium/polyester tape applied on each pair, with 100% coverage + tinned copper drain wire
  • Overall cable shield
    Aluminium/polyester tape with 100% coverage + tinned copper drain wire.
  • Armouring
    Galvanized steel wire core
  • Conductor
    Bare copper, flexible, Class 2 to IEC/EN60228
  • Insulation
    XLPE
  • Wiring
    Two conductors form a twisted pair with optimum pitch to minimise potential external interference that can disrupt the signal. Pairs wired together concentrically.
