Applications
The 300 V Instrumentation Cables are dual listed as Type PLTC per UL 13 and Type ITC per UL 2250. These cables are suitable for installations as outlined in NEC ART 725 for Type PLTC cables and NEC ART 727 for Type ITC cables.
NEXANS Instrumentation Cables is LEAD FREE and RoHS compliant.
Construction
Conductor: Bare, annealed copper conforming to ASTM B-3 and Class B stranded in accordance to ASTM B-8.
Insulation: Polyvinyl chloride in accordance with UL 13 and UL 2250, flame retardant, 105°C temperature rating.
Insulation Shield (on shielded pair/triad constructions): Aluminum foil/polyester shield helically wrapped to provide 100% coverage with a tinned copper drain wire that is two gauge sizes smaller than the circuit conductors. These shields are electrically isolated from each other.
Assembly: pairs/triads are cabled in concentric layers. In the case of unshielded pairs/triads, they are cabled at staggered lengths to reduce crosstalk.
Overall cable shield: Aluminum foil/polyester shield helically wrapped to provide 100% coverage with a tinned copper drain wire that is the same size as the circuit conductors, with the exception of single pair/triad constructions where the drain wire is two gauge sizes smaller than the circuit conductors.
Jacket: UL listed sunlight and moisture resistant, sequentially length marked, black, flame retardant polyvinyl chloride material. A nylon ripcord is included for ease of jacket removal.
Conductor Identification
Pairs: black/white and number coded
Triads: black/white/red and number coded
Bending Radius
Fixed Position: 5 x cable overall diameter
During Installation: 8 x cable overall diameter
