Specifications
Conductors: Solid alloys per ANSI MC 96.1.

Insulation: Flame-retardant Okoseal^® (PVC) per UL Standard 13 and 2250, 15 mils nominal thickness, 105°C temperature rating.

Conductor Identification: Pigmented insulating on individual conductors.

Assembly: Pairs assembled with left-hand lay

Cable Shield: Aluminum/Polyester backed tape overlapped to provide 100% coverage, and a 7-strand tinned copper drain wire, same size as the conductor.

Inner Jacket: Black, flame-retardant, low temperature Okoseal per UL Standard 13 and 2250. A rip cord is laid longitudinally under the jacket to facilitate removal.

C-L-X Sheath: Close fitting, impervious, continuously welded and corrugated aluminum sheath provides complete protection against moisture, liquids, and gases, has excellent mechanical strength and provides equipment grounding through the sheath.

Outer Jacket: Flame-retardant, low temperature Okoseal per UL Standard 13 and 2250.

Classifications: UL Listed as Type ITC/PLTC - Instrumentation Tray Cable/Power Limited Tray Cable, for use in accordance with Article 727 and 725 of the National Electrical Code.

Cables comply with UL 2250 and UL Subject 13 for PLTC, CL2 and CL3.

Applications
Okonite Type C-L-X P-OS (Pair/triad - Overall Shield) Thermocouple Extension cables are designed for use as instrumentation and process control cables in ITC non-classified or labeled circuits up to 150 volts and 5 amps (750VA) and in Class 2 or 3 Power-Limited circuits
where shielding against external interference is required, but shielding against interference among groups is not required; indoors or outdoors; in wet or dry location with conductor operating temperatures up to 105°C; in cable trays; in raceways; supported by a messenger wire; under raised floors; for direct burial. Suitable Class I, Division 2, Class II, Division 2, or Class III, Division 2 and Class I, Zone 2 hazardous locations. The C-L-X sheath provides physical protection against mechanical damage. It may be installed in both exposed and concealed work, secured to
supports not greater than 6 feet apart.
