What conductor construction ensures flexibility for routing?

The conductors are stranded with seven strands per core, providing enhanced flexibility compared with solid wire while maintaining good current-carrying capacity.

How does the cable handle thermal conditions during operation?

It is specified for continuous use from -20°C up to a maximum operating temperature of 75°C, allowing deployment in typical industrial ambient temperatures.

What shielding arrangement is provided and how does it aid performance?

The cable is supplied screened
the shield reduces electromagnetic interference and helps maintain signal fidelity over control and communication runs.

Which approvals support installation in regulated systems?

The cable carries CSA, CE and UL approvals appropriate to many commercial and industrial installations.

In what lengths is the product supplied for procurement planning?

The standard supplied length for this item is 100 m, suitable for small- to mid-scale installations.
