Application  

These cables are suitable for data transmission and for use in measurement and control technologies such as industrial unit control rooms and power plants. When shielding is used, the transmission circuit is protected against external electrical interferences. Pair-structured cables provide appropriate crosstalk attenuation levels.

Structure  

• Conductor: Annealed copper, Class 1 (solid), Class 2 (stranded), and Class 5 (flexible), plain or tinned, in accordance with BS 6360.
• Insulation: HFFR, PE, PVC, or XLPE compound.
• Arrangement of conductors: Conductors are arranged individually or in paired, triple, or quadruple elements with color coding or numbering.
• Pair shielding: For cables with pair shielding: tinned copper drain wire, aluminum foil, polyester tape, copper braid or tinned copper braid, or a combination of braid and foil.
• Overall shielding: For cables with overall shielding: tinned copper drain wire, aluminum foil, polyester tape, copper braid or tinned copper braid, or a combination of braid and foil.
• Inner sheath: PE, PVC, or HFFR compound.
• Armoring: Galvanized steel wires, double steel tape, or steel wire braid over the inner sheath for armored cables.
• Sheath: PE, PVC, or HFFR compound. The sheath color is usually black.

Standard  

• BS EN 50288-7 with a rated voltage of 500 V (upon request, cables with 90 V or 300 V can also be produced).
