Multi Cores Screened Armored Instrumentation Cable RE-2X(ST)HSWAH 19x2.5mm² 300/500V
Multi Cores Screened Armored Instrumentation Cable RE-2X(ST)HSWAH 19x2.5mm² 300/500V, Conductor: Bare Copper Stranded IEC 60228 Class 2, Insulation: XLPE Compound, Cabling: 19 Cores Stranded, Screen: Overall Screened Aluminium Foil Wrapping with Tinned Copper Drain Wire, Inner Sheath: LSZH Compound, Armor: SWA Galvanized Steel Wire Armored, Outer Sheath: LSZH Compound
This high-performance armored instrumentation cable features 19 cores of 2.5mm² in a robust screened and armored construction, specifically engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring mechanical protection, EMI shielding, and fire safety in harsh environments.
The bare copper stranded conductors comply with IEC 60228 Class 2, providing excellent conductivity and mechanical strength for instrumentation and control circuits. XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) insulation delivers outstanding electrical properties, including low capacitance and high insulation resistance, essential for accurate analog signal transmission over extended distances.
The 19 cores are stranded together and protected by an overall screen consisting of aluminium foil wrapping with tinned copper drain wire, providing 100% EMI coverage and effective protection against external electromagnetic interference. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) inner sheath provides initial fire safety protection. The SWA (Steel Wire Armored) galvanized steel wire layer delivers exceptional mechanical protection against crushing, impact, and rodent attack. The LSZH outer sheath ensures low smoke emission and zero halogen toxicity in fire conditions, critical for safety in confined and populated areas.
Rated at 300/500V, this RE-2X(ST)HSWAH cable is ideal for industrial instrumentation, control systems, power plant monitoring, and petrochemical facilities requiring rugged, fire-safe, screened multi-core cabling.
