UL Instrumentation & Control Cables

300V UL Instrumentation Cable

Cables with soft annealed bare or tinned copper conductors and PVC flame retardant insulations and jackets are the standard offering for 300V Power-limited tray instrumentation installation. Constructions with PVC/PVC that have three or more conductors and 20 AWG or larger conductors may also be used for direct burial installations.

As an option, Belden also offers all PVC insulated, PVC jacketed instrumentation cables - and several other insulation and jacket combinations - with a PLTC-ER (Exposed Run) rating, formerly referred to as Open Wiring. Per NEC Article 725, a PLTC-ER rated cable may be installed in an industrial establishment between a cable tray and the utilization equipment or device without the use of conduit. An ER rated cable must meet the crush and impact requirements of an armored cable, such as UL Type MC cable. By eliminating the need for metal conduit and/or armor, using a PLTC-ER rated cable results in installation and maintenance savings.

Other insulation and jacket options (including HaloarrestXLink jackets) in the UL Instrumentation Cable line are shown in the table below. All Belden cable jackets are resistant to sunlight, moisture and vapor penetration.

To specify PLTC-ER (Exposed Run) rated cables, order standard 1000 or 3000 series part number with E suffix.

Shielding options, including unshielded, overall foil shielded and individually foil shielded/overall shielded configurations are available. Twisted non-shielded pairs and triads provide a minimal diameter allowing greater tray and conduit fill. Non-shielded instrumentation pairs may be utilized when recommended by the instrument manufacturer and used in a metallic conduit. Overall shields are recommended for use in instrumentation applications where signals are transmitted in excess of 100 millivolts, except in areas where high voltage and current sources create excessive noise interference. Belden's exclusive Beldfoil® shield with drain wire provides 100% coverage for maximum shield effectiveness. Individually shielded pairs or triads with an overall shield are recommended for use in instrumentation applications where optimum noise rejection is required. Individual pair/triad shields are fully isolated from each other and contain a separate drain wire for grounding, to provide maximum protection from crosstalk and common mode interference.

Belden also has the capability to protect electronic, instrumentation and control cables with interlocking or continuous armor, as well as smooth or corrugated protective metal tapes.

To complete the offering, a communication wire is included on all multi-pair/multi triad 1000 and 3000 series part numbers which consists of a 22 AWG Stranded (7x30) Bare Copper Conductor, and Orange PVC insulation. Custom configurations are also available.
