POLYCAB INSTRUMENTATION CABLES CONFORMING TO BS EN 50288-7

The high growth of automation in process industry, especially process control across large user sites like oil refining and petrochemical plants, the steel industry, power stations etc. necessitates the reliable transmission of electrical signals, process data and control information.

Today, in a continuous process plants like refinery, fertilizer, cement, steel, etc. Various parameters like temprature, pressure flow, level etc are converted in to electrical signals which are fed to the control room. In control room these signals are analyzed and suitable commands are sent to the field to take corrective action. The control room has become the brain of the plant and instrumentation cables are the arteries.

Technical Specification

  • Caution: Instrumentation cables are not designed for use with power supplies and should not be connected to then mains power.
  • Conductor: High conductivity annealed plain/tinned stranded copper conductor produced in-house from state-of-the art machine.
  • Insulation: In-house developed PVC/XLPE insulation compound having high insulation properties.
  • Individual screen: Shielding type for twisted pair/triad, Aluminium-Mylar tape with tinned copper drain wire. Drain wire will continuous contact with aluminum side of the tape. Shielding with ATC braiding can also be provided to meet the specific requirements.
  • Pair/triad Identification: Identification of pair/triad by number printing or by numbered polyster tape over each pair/triad. Also idenfication is availabe with different color coding.
