Instrumentation Cables—XLPE Insulated, Overall Screened ,Unarmoured PVC Sheathed Cables(CU/XLPE/OSCR/PVC)
Instrumentation cables come in twisted pairs, triads, and quads, depending on the customer’s applications; twisting reduces any electromagnetic interference by reducing the chances of electrical voltages and currents being induced in the conductor. Individual and overall screening are also applied in instrumentation cables to optimize the signal transferred and further reduce any electromagnetic interference. Screening of pairs, triads, or quads also includes a drain wire earthed to the ground, which ensures a noise-free signal transmission. Depending on the application, instrumentation cables can be insulated with PVC or XLPE; the cables can be armoured or unarmoured. The sheathing materials can be of PVC, LSZH, or PE. The cables can have additional flame retardant or flame retardant properties, and they can be manufactured with special protections such as lead sheaths, or DRYLAM or AIRBAG technology.
