Overall Shield or Individual and Overall Shield with Metal Bond Armor

TE Wire & Cable Copper Instrumentation Cables are designed for use in NEC Article 725 Class 1 Division 2 Hazardous Location and comply with NEC 725 for use in Class 2 and Class 2 Circuits. Cables with up to 50 pairs and continuous lengths of 5,000-10,000 FT are possible. TE Wire & Cable conductor sizes, insulations, and jackets can be mixed and matched to custom design a cable for your specific application. Metal Bond armor or as some know it Zetabon is added to enhance moisture resistance and provide excellent mechanical strength.

PVC twisted/overall shielded instrumentation cable is ideal for systems sensitive to induced voltage and electrical noise. The twisting of the conductor and the aluminum/polyester taper shield provides protection against cross talk, static and magnetic noise in instrumentation circuits. Conductors are insulated with color-coded PVC, then twisted with a tin/copper drain wire. Next, an Aluminum Mylar tape is wrapped around the wires, followed by an inner layer of overall PVC. Metal Bond aka Zeta Bond is applied and cable is finished with an overall Flame Retardant PVC jacket. The cable is UL listed Subject 13 for Power Limited Tray Cable (PLTC) 300V applications.
