    Flame Retardant Overall Screened Instrumentation Cables (Multicore)

    RE-2X(St)Y

    i

    APPLICATION

    The unarmoured XLPE versions are generally used for indoor installation and suitable for wet and damp areas. Generally used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice transmission signals and services.

    STANDARDS

    Basic design to BS EN 50288-7 (formerly BS 5308)

    FIRE PERFORMANCE

    Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire Test) : BS EN 60332-1-2

    VOLTAGE RATING

    300V, 500V

    CABLE CONSTRUCTION

    Conductor : Plain or metal coated copper wire, solid, stranded or flexible according to IEC 60228 class 1, 2 and 5.

    Insulation : Extruded XLPE compound according to EN 50290-2-29. PVC, PE, PP compound can be offered as options.

    Overall Screen : Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over the laid up cores with metallic side down in contact with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm². Copper braid screen or aluminium/polyester tape combination with copper braid screen can be offered as option.

    Outer Sheath : Thermoplastic PVC compound according to EN 50290-2-22.

    Outer Sheath Option : UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti-rodent and anti-termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.

    COLOUR CODE

    Insulation Colour : Colours and/or additional ring markings and/or symbols achieved by the use of coloured insulation or by a coloured surface using extrusion, printing or painting.

    Outer Sheath : Black. Other colours can be offered upon request.

    PHYSICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES

    Temperature range during operation : -30°C - +90°C

    Temperature range fixed installation : -5°C - +50°C

    Maximum short circuit temperature (5 Seconds) : 250°C

    Minimum bending radius : 7.5 x Overall Diameter
