SXCAV & SXCAG Signalling Cables

Application

SXCAV & SXCAG Signalling Cables are designed for connection between switching centers and equipment

shelters along the trackside.

SXCAV & SXCAG Signalling Cables are used as main signalling cables specially designed to give good induction

protection (R.F=0.24 at inductive voltage 170 V/km) and are suitable for installation in intercity railways electrifi

ed at 25KV ac.

Standards

SXCAV SXCAG Specifi cation

Fire performance: EN 50266-2-4 C

Construction

SXCAV & SXCAG Signalling Cables

Conductors: Class 1 solid bare copper conductor.

Insulation: Coloured cross-linked PE insulation.

Cabling Element: Each two conductors are twisted together to form a pair.

Stranding: Pairs are helically stranded in layers to form the cable core.

Core Wrapping: Plastic tape(s) with overlapping.

Inner Sheath: PE sheath.

Electrostatic Shield: One corrugated copper tape.

Intermediate Sheath: PE sheath.

Electromagnetic Shield: Two helically applied steel tapes.

Outer Sheath: Black unleaded PVC (SXCAV) or green halogen free (SXCAG) sheath.
