SpecificationsUL Subject 13, 2250

NEC® Article 725 Class 2 and Class 3 Circuits

UL 1685 Vertical Tray Flame Test comparable to IEEE 383 (70,000 BTU/hr.) Flame Test

NEC® Type PLTC Listed, which is approved for cable tray use in Class 1 Division 2 and Class 2 Division 2 hazardous locations, and intrinsi-cally safe applications as permitted by NEC® Article 392, 501, 502, 504 and 505

NEC® Type ITC per Article 727

Applications Suitable for installation in wet or dry locations. Cable jackets are sunlight resistant, impervious to moisture and vapor penetration and non-propagating.

Overall Shield Recommended for use in instrumentation and control applications where signals are transmitted in excess of 100 millivolts except in areas where high voltage and current sources create excessive noise interference. The foil shield with drain wire provides 100% coverage for maximum shield effectiveness.

Individually Shielded and Overall Shielded Individually shielded pairs or triads with an overall shield are recommended for use in instrument and control applications where optimum noise rejection is required. Individual pair/triad shields are fully isolated from each other and contain a separate drain wire for grounding to provide maximum protection from crosstalk and common mode interference. Cables with an overall shield provide additional electrostatic noise protection.

Belden® Variable-Frequency Drive (VFD) Cables 1,000V UL Flexible Motor Supply CableDesigned to overcome the problems and limitations of other cabling systems used for variable-frequency AC motor drives.

VFD cables carry the power from AC drive systems to AC motors and must handle not only high power levels, but also extremely high voltage.

Variable-frequency AC motor drive output cables are subject to a harsh operating environment characterized by high voltage spikes, high noise levels and adverse environmental conditions. VFD systems exist in both process and discrete industries such as general assembly, automotive, food and beverage, pulp and paper and petrochemical.

Conventional VFD cabling systems experience failure due to corona discharge or adverse conditions and are difficult and expensive to install. Belden VFD cable uses a thicker and more stable electrical insulation, plus features a dual shield. The combination of these two features result in Belden VFD cable to be installed at a lower cost than the least expensive VFD cable alternative.

One (1) Four-Conductor Stranded TC Circuit Conductors + (1) Full-sized Ground; Overall Beldfoil® + 85% TC Braid Shield; Full-sized TC Drain Wire. AWG: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16.

Physical Characteristics: Thermocouple and Thermocouple Extension Wire

A thermocouple is a temperature measurement sensor that consists of two dissimilar metals joined together at one end (a junction) that produces a small thermoelectric voltage when the junction is heated. The change in thermoelectric voltage is interpreted by thermocouple thermometers as a change in temperature.

Thermocouple Identification and Limits of Error - †Reference Junction 0°C

* Hoskins Manufacturing Company Trade Mark† The Temperature Range and Limits of Error are for standard grade thermocouples. Reference ANSI MC96.1-1982 for special grade thermocouples. The Temperature Ranges for type E, J, K and T thermocouple wires listed above pertain to 20 AWG wire.
