APPLICATIONS

ICA-Y(St)Y 300/500 V  are multipair instrumentation cables intended for control and instrumentation circuits, for signal, monitoring and data processing systems and for analogue or digital data transmission, all in industrial electronics applications, allowing particularly for conditions met in chemical, petrochemical and paper industries.

The cables are protected by an overall electrostatic shield against external electric interferences.

The cables are suitable for fixed indoor and outdoor installations.

Sheathing PVC of high oxygen index is UV radiation and weather resistant, is self-extinguishing and flame retardant. The cables pass combustibility test according to PN-EN 60332-3 standard.

The cables are oil-resistant and designed for frequent contact with petroleum products, as in petrol stations and stores, where engine fuels and lubricants are pumped or handled.

CONSTRUCTION

- bare annealed copper single wire conductors, meeting requirements of class 1 per PN-EN 60228,

- PVC insulation (PVC type T1 acc. to PN-EN 50363-3) - identification colour code: white and red insulation and pair number printed on it,

- insulated conductors twisted into pairs,

- pairs laid-up in layers,

- cable core wrapped in polyester tape,

- overall electrostatic shield incorporating aluminium-polyester tape and stranded annealed tinned copper drain wire,

- oil, petrol and UV radiation resistant and special self-extinguishing PVC cable sheath (PVC type TM1 acc. to PN-EN 60363-4-1), black (RAL 9005) other colours also available.
