APPLICATIONS
EISF and EIFA instrumentation cables are 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.
Shielded pair structure substantially decreases mutual influence between signals transmitted along the cable.
Steel tape armour in EIFA cables offers enhanced protection against mechanical damages and rodent attack.
The cables can also be used for power supply to small auxiliary devices on condition that current-carrying capacity limit (see our Technical Guide) is not exceeded.
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 offer enhanced resistance to aliphatic hydrocarbons.
