Insulation
Okonite insulation is a heat, moisture and chemical resistant, mechanically
rugged compound. The insulation thickness for size #14 AWG through #9 AWG is
5/64" and for #6 AWG it is 6/64". One conductor in each layer is identified
by color coding. In addition each conductor is number coded for ease of
identification.
D.F. Finish
Insulated conductors are assembled with a shock
absorbing cushion layer and a black Okolene® (polyethylene) jacket is then
applied overall.
Applications
Okonite-D.F. Signal Cables are designed for use in all vital signal circuits
where continuity of service and long life are required in all vital circuit
and safety related applications. They are especially recommended for use
where crush resistance is vital. This cable is recommended for direct burial
or duct installations in all wet and dry locations
