Instrument cables are used for signal transmission and control lines in meters, instruments, and other electrical equipment.
Instrumentation cable is typically installed indoors and is suitable for humid environments.
In industry, it is commonly used for communication, data, voice transmission signals and services, and for the interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments.
Cable instruments are also available as armored instrument cables and unarmored instrument cables.
The non-armored ones are generally used for indoor installation and are suitable for wet areas.
They are mainly used for communication, data, and voice transmission signals and services within industrial process manufacturing plants, also used for interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments, usually in the oil industry.
Armored instrumentation cables are widely used between inverter power supplies and inverter motors.
Armored LSZH cable versions are generally used when there is an increased risk of mechanical damage.
The galvanized steel wire armor provides excellent protection.
