APPLICATION
EN 50228-7 cables are used for transmission of analogue and digital signals in instrument and control systems; allowed for use
                      in zone 1 and zone 2, group II, classified areas (IEC 79-14), not allowed for direct connection to low
                      impedance sources, e.g. public mains electricity supply.
                      Recommended for indoor and outdoor installation, on racks, trays, in conduits, in dry and wet
                      locations; not for direct burial.
      Recommended for use as fire protection measure for people and important material assets.

CABLE CONSTRUCTION
Conductor: Annealed copper solid or plain copper stranded to IEC 60228 Class 2.
                      Insulation: PVC compound as per EN 50290-2-21.
                      Pairs: Two insulated conductors uniformly twisted together with a lay not exceeding 100mm
                      Individual Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over each pair metallic side down in contact
                      with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm²
                      Binder tape: PETP transparent tape
                      Overall Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over the laid up pairs metallic side down in
                      contact with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm²
                      Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic PVC compound as per EN 50290-2-22. 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.
