EN 50288-7 STANDARDS PE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed, Individual & Overall Screened Instrumentation Cables (Multitriple)
RE-2Y(St)H-TiMF 70°C / 300 V

EN 50288-7 Cable

APPLICATION:

These cables are used for transmission of analoge and digital signals in instrument and control systems at chemistry and petrochemistry industry plants, power plants, natural gas and petroluem plants, etc. These cables are used in the environments which have no corrosive gases are emitted in the event of fire. In case of fire, these cables inhibit the propagation of the flames whereby the development of smoke is extremely low. Instrumentation cables are not allowed for direct connection to a low impedance sources, e.g. public mains electricity supply. With blue sheath it is suitable for intrinsically safe systems. These cables are not recommended for direct burial. They are for indoor and outdoor installation, in dry and wet l°Cations; on racks, trays, in conduits.

CABLE CONSTRUCTION

  • Conductor: Annealed copper solid or plain copper stranded to IEC 60228 Class 2.
  • Insulation: PE compound, EN 50290. 2-23.
  • Individual Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over each pair metallic side down in contact with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm2
  • Triple: Three conductors twisted to form a triple
  • **TiMF Construction: Polyester tape above the triple, AL-PES tape over solid tinned copper drain wire, 0,60 mm
  • Lay-up: TiMF laid up in layers of optimum pitch
  • Separator: Polyester tape Overall Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm2
  • Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1 (Thermosetting LSZH compound type SW2-SW4 as per BS 7655-2.6 can be offered.). UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option.

COLOUR CODE

Insulation: Black / White / Red, continuously numbered on white core(1, 2..)for multitriples.

Outer Sheath: Black or blue for intrinsically safe systems
