RE-2X(st)Y or RE-2X(st)Y-SWAY (70°C PVC)
Screened instrumentation cables with XLPE insulation and 70°C PVC sheathing.
Category: EN 50288-7 Instrumentation Cables
Product Specification
RE-2X(st)Y or RE-2X(st)Y-SWAY screened instrumentation cables are designed for transmission of analogue and digital signals in instrument and control systems at chemistry and petro-chemistry industry plants, power plants, natural gas and petroleum plants, etc.
These RE-2X(st)Y or RE-2X(st)Y-SWAY cables are usually specially manufactured to order, therefore weights and dimensions can only be estimated at time of quoting.
Suitable for indoor or outdoor installation in dry or wet environments. Versions with SWA are also suitable for direct burial applications.
Note: PVC is a fairly tough & flexible material but may release toxic fumes if burnt. For increased fire safety see low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) versions.
