Digicode 30KHz Indoor Signalling Cables

 

Application

The cables are designed for transmission of track circuit digicode signals up to 30 kHz in electrifi ed lines.

Standards

EN 50266-2-4 & IEC 60332-3(Fire performance)

EN 50268-2(Smoke density)

EN 50267-2-1(Halogen content)

EN 50267-2-2(Gases acidity)

EN 50265-2-1, IEC 60332-1, NFC 32070 Cat C2 compliant (for PVC sheathed cables)

Construction

Digicode 30KHz Indoor Signalling Cables

Conductors: Solid Annealed copper, 1.4 mm nominal diameter (0.6 mm for the auxiliary pair).

Insulation: Polyethylene.

Cabling Element: Two insulated conductors are twisted together to form a pair.

Stranding: Pairs are helically stranded to get the cable core.

Core Wrapping: Plastic tape(s) with overlapping.

Inner Sheath: Low density polyethylene.

Moisture Barrier: Copolymer coated laminated aluminium tape.

Intermediate Sheath: LSZH fi re retardant compound. PE or PVC option can be offered upon request.

Mechanical Protection: Two helically applied steel tapes.

Outer Sheath: LSZH fi re retardant compound. PE or PVC option can be offered upon request.
