Specifications

Conductors: Bare copper, Class B, stranded per ASTM B-8.

Insulation:
X-Olene (XLPE), per UL 13, 2250 & 1569, 30 mils nominal thickness, 90°C temperature rating. Meets MIL-DTL-1377H, section 4.8.4.1.2 Cold Bend at -66°C and ASTM D746-04 brittlepoint at -76°C.

Conductor Identification: Pigmented black and white in pairs, black, red and white in triads; white conductor numerically printed for group identification.

Pair Shield:
Aluminum/Polyester tape overlapped to provide 100% coverage, and a Class B 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 B strand tinned copper drain wire, same size as conductor.
 
Inner Jacket: Black, flame-retardant, low temperature Okoseal® (PVC) per UL 13 and UL Standard 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: Black, flame-retardant, low temperature Okoseal per UL 13 and UL Standard 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 725 (Class 1, 2 & 3) and Article 727 of the National Electrical Code. UL listed as MC-HL for use in Class I, II, and III, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous location in accordance with NEC Articles 501, 502, 503, 504 & 505.

Applications
ITC-HL and MC-HL cables eliminate the need for conduit when installed in accordance with NEC Article 501.10(A)(1)(d) "ITC-HL" or 501.10(A)(1)(C) "MC-HL" installations.
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.

Product Features

  • Passes the UL 13 and IEEE 383 vertical tray flame tests.
  • Passes IEEE 1202 vertical tray flame test.
  • UL listed at -50°C. Also meets the CSA 22.2 No. 3 Cold Impact Test at -45°C.
  • UL listed for direct burial and sunlight resistant.
  • Complete pre-packaged, factory-tested wiring system-color coded.
  • C-L-X enclosure permits installation in cable tray containing lighting and power cables without a barrier separator.
  • Individual pairs are completely isolated.
  • Impervious, continuous sheath excludes moisture, gases and liquids.
  • Lower installed system cost than conduit or EMT systems.
