Materials and Construction

  • Conductor: Multi-strand tinned copper wire
  • Insulation layer: TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • Core filler: Non-hygroscopic filler
  • Shield layer: Tinned copper braided mesh
  • Outer sheath: TPE thermoplastic elastomer

Working Principle Copper conductor transfers low voltage control and analog signals. TPE insulation separates individual cores electrically. Copper braid shielding layer drains induced electromagnetic noise to ground, blocking external interference from entering signal cores and preventing internal signal radiation. TPE sheath provides mechanical protection against abrasion, oil and temperature variation.

Installation Requirements

  • Maintain minimum bending radius during routing
  • Ground shield layer at one end of cable for analog signal
  • Avoid pulling cable with excessive tension
  • Keep cable away from high voltage power cables
  • Ambient temperature kept within -40 °C to +90 °C
  • Use cable glands for cabinet entry
  • Leave slack length for drag chain moving installation

Precautions

  • Do not use this cable for high power main circuit
  • Shield grounding must follow single end grounding rule for analog signals
  • Avoid sharp edges cutting outer sheath
  • Do not exceed maximum pulling tension during cable laying
  • Inspect sheath surface for abrasion periodically
  • Store cable reels in cool dry area
  • Prevent chemical solvent contact with outer sheath
