    RT/F3 D & S & B type Axle Counter Cable

    Application

    The cables are designed for transmission of signals up to 90 kHz in axle counter train detection systems.

    Standard

    • RT/E/PS/00031

    Cable Construction

    • Type CodesConductors: Tinned copper, 0.9/1.4 mm nominal diameter.
    • Insulation: Solid polyethylene.
    • Cabling Element: Two insulated conductors are twisted together to form a pair.
    • Stranding: Pairs are helically stranded in concentric layers.
    • Filling: Cable core interstices are filled with a low-permitivity compound. Unfi lled cables option can be offered upon request.
    • Core Wrapping: Plastic tape(s) with overlapping.
    • Moisture Barrier: One laminated sheath made of aluminium tape coated with PE Copolymer on at least one side is applied with longitudinally overlap.
    • Inner Sheath (for S/B type): Polyethylene or LSZH fi re retardant compound.
    • Mechanical Protection (for S/B type): One corrugated steel tape or brass tape is longitudinally applied with overlap. Unarmoured cables option can be offered upon request.
    • Outer Sheath: Polyethylene or LSZH fi re retardant compound. Ruggedised PE sheath compound can be offered upon request.
    • F1 class: Non LSZH cables.
    • F5 class: Unfi lled cables
    • D type: Unarmoured types
    • R type: Ruggedised PE sheath
    • S type: Steel tape armoured types
    • B type: Brass tape armoured types
    • E1, E2 & E3 types: 3 different induction protection levels available.
