Application

UL/CSA instrument tray cable per ICEA S-73-532, rated 300V/600V, for analog signal transmission (4-20mA), low level DC signals, RTD, thermocouple, and control circuits in industrial automation, DCS/PLC panels, and switchgear. Overall foil or individual pair + overall braid shield provides 100% isolation from EMIRFI. Low capacitance design preserves signal fidelity. Suitable for cable tray, conduit, direct burial (dry). Temp -30°C to +90°C. Individual pair shielding reduces crosstalk. Drain wire for easy grounding. PVC (75°C) or XLPE (90°C) insulation. Shielded, flame retardant.

Core Strengths

Unshielded twisted pairs in plant-floor instrumentation pick up noise, corrupting 4–20mA signals. Our ICEA instrument cable with overall foil and braid shield provides 100% EMI immunity, low capacitance preserves signal integrity. Drain wire easier earthing. PVC or XLPE 90°C.

Standard

BS5308, IEC60502

Construction

☉〉 Conductor: Copper (stranded)

☉〉 Insulation: PVC or XLPE
