Fieldbus Cable

    Dec. 14, 2006
    DataCELL Foundation fieldbus cable targets rugged plant environments that use networked automation and control.

    The cable is rated for instrument tray cable/power-limited tray cable (ITC/PLTC) exposed-run (ER) applications. This lets users eliminate the conduit when the cable is installed in accordance with recent National Electrical Code amendments. The cable comes in 18 awg with a foil or braided shield, and with or without ground wire. The cable's PVC jacket resists oil, sunlight, and water, and is available in standard and custom colors and versions.
