• Tinned Copper Conductor

Application:
Superior flame-retardant cable for use in instrumentation and process control applications in caustic environments where protection from electrostatic interference is required. UL listed as Type TC and approved for installation indoors or outdoors, aerially, in conduits, ducts, cable trays and direct burial in circuits not exceeding 600 volts. May be installed at temperatures as low as -35°C and used in NEC Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations. UL approved for NEC continuous operation at 90°C in wet and dry locations, 130°C for emergency overload conditions, and 250°C for short circuit conditions.

Conductors:
Tin-coated, soft annealed copper per ASTM B-33, Class B stranding per ASTM B-8 (compressed) or ASTM B-496 (compact).

Insulation:
Flame-retardant ethylene propylene rubber (FR-EP) per ICEA S-82-552.

Overall Shield:
Aluminum-polymer tape providing 100% coverage with a flexible 7-strand tinned copper drain wire.

Jacket:
Sunlight-resistant chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) per ICEA S-82-552 and UL Standard 1277. A ripcord is applied longitudinally under the jacket to facilitate stripping.
