Specifications
Conductors: #18 AWG tinned copper, Class M, stranded per ASTM
B-174.
Insulation: Okolene® (Polypropylene) per UL 13 and 2250, 32 mils
nominal thickness, 75°C temperature rating.
Conductor Identification: Pigmented orange and blue in pairs,
orange conductor numerically printed for group identification.
Pair Shield: Aluminum/Polyester tape overlapped to provide 100%
coverage, and a Class M tinned copper drain wire, two sizes smaller than
the conductor. All multi-pair shields are isolated from each other.
Multiple Pair Assembly: Pairs assembled with a left-hand lay.
Cable fillers included where required to provide a round cable.
Multiple Pair Cable Shield: Aluminum/Polyester tape overlapped to
provide 100% coverage, and a class M strand tinned copper drain wire,
same size as conductor.
Inner Jacket: Orange, flame-retardant, Okoseal per UL 13 and
2250. A rip cord is laid longitudinally under the jacket to facilitate
removal.
C-L-X Sheath: A 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: Orange, flame-retardant, Okoseal per UL 13 and
2250.
Classifications: UL Listed as PLTC-Power Limited Tray Cable and
as ITC-HL - Instrument Tray Cable/Hazardous Locations for use in
accordance with Article 727 and Article 725 of the National Electrical
Code. Cables comply with ISA-S-50-02, UL 2250 and UL 13 for Fieldbus
circuits and CL2 and CL3.
Applications
C-L-X OKOBUS® cables are designed for use in rugged plant and off-shore
marine environments utilizing networked discrete or process automation
and control. ITC-HL (Instrument Tray Cable - Hazardous Locations)
eliminates the need for conduit when installed in accordance with NEC
Article 501.10(A)(1)(d) "ITC-HL" installations. Meets Foundation
Fieldbus H1 specification for "Type A". Fully complies with ANS/ISA
50.02 Part 2 Fieldbus Cable.
The isolated individual shields over each pair, in SP-OS cables, when
properly grounded, prevent crosstalk or capacitive coupling between
adjacent pairs which occurs with ac signals, particularly the pulse
type. The overall shield eliminates most of the static interference from
the electrical field radiated by power cables and other electrical
equipment.
The C-L-X sheath provides additional electrical shielding and physical
protection against mechanical damage as well as complete protection
against moisture or gases entering the cable.
