EN50288-7 Cables | |||
XLPE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed Instrumentation Cables |
XlPe Insulated, PVc sheathed, Individual and overall screened Instrumentation cables (Multipair)
re-2X(st)Y PiMf 90°c / 300V
APPLICATION
EN 50228-7 cables are used for transmission of analogue and digital signals in instrument and control systems;
allowed for use in zone 1 and zone 2, group II, classified areas (IEC 79-14), not allowed for direct connection to
low impedance sources, e.g. public mains electricity supply.
Recommended for indoor and outerdoor installation, on racks, trays, in conduits, in dry and wet locations; not for
direct buiral. Recommended for use as fire protection messure for people and important material assets.
STANDARDS
Basic design to EN 50288-7

CABLE CONSTRUCTION
Conductor: Annealed copper solid or plain copper stranded to IEC 60228 Class 2.
Insulation: Extruded cross-linked XLPE compound as per EN 50290-2-29.
Pairs: Two insulated conductors uniformly twisted together with a lay not exceeding 100mm
Individual Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over each pair metallic side down in contact with tinned
copper drain wire, 0.5mm²
Binder tape: PETP transparent tape
Overall Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over the laid up pairs metallic side down in contact with
tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm²
Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic PVC compound as per EN 50290-2-22. UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil
resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance
standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound
and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.
COLOUR CODE
Insulation: Black / White, continuously numbered on white core(1, 2..)for multipair.
Outer Sheath: Black or blue for intrinsically safe systems
PHYSICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES
Temperature Range During Operation (Fixed State): -30°C – +90°C
Temperature Range During Installation (Mobile State): -5°C – +50°C
Minimum Bending Radius: 7.5 X Overall Diameter
Sunlight Resistance: UL 1581 section 1200
Oil Resistance: ICEA S-73-532(Test temperature +60°C, duration 4h. Retention: min 60% of tensile
strength/min.60% of elongation)
