Application

The data transmission cables RD-Y(St)Y are used in measurement and control technology such as in control rooms of industrial plants and power stations. The cables serves for transmission of analog and digital signals up to frequencies of approx. 10 kHz. These cables offer considerable advantages by using the quick and economical connecting possibilities in Maxi-Termi-Point^® technique. This solderless connecting technique is defined by a compression termination that employs a spring-clip for the connection of the cable to a square rigid post without pre-stripping. For this technique it is necessary to have an exact 7-core stranded conductor and a Semi-Rigid-PVC. Suitable for fixed installation only inside of buildings. With blue outer sheath suitable for intrinsic safe systems.
CE = The product is conformed with the EC Low-Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC.
