Application and description
Instrumentation cables according to BS EN 50288-7 are used for the transmission of analogue and digital signals in instrumentation control systems and are classified according to IEC 79-14 for use in Group II, Zones 1 and 2 environments, and are not to be connected directly to low impedance power supplies, e.g. public power supply stations.
Recommended for indoor and outdoor installations, brackets, trays, pipelines, wet and dry environments, not recommended for direct burial.
Recommended for use in fire protection measures for life and vital property materials.
