XLPE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed Instrumentation Cables

EN 50288-7 Cables

APPLICATION

EN 50228-7 armoured LSZH sheathed cables are generally used when the risk of mechanical damage is

increased. The galvanized steel wire armour provides excellent protection. Generally, EN 50228-7 cables are

used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice transmission

signals and services. Also EN 50228-7 cables are used used for theinterconnection of electrical equipment and

instruments, the LSZH sheath can reduce toxic smoke and fume emission.
