Instrumentation Cables

Instrumentation & Control Cables Manufactured as per BS:5308/IS:1554/EN:50228

Screens, or shielding, are widely utilized in instrumentation and signal cables to minimize or eliminate potential interference and noise.

    Such disturbances typically arise from two main sources:
  • Cross-talk between adjacent pairs or triads within the cables.
  • External interference from nearby electrical equipment, machinery, or power lines.

Screen Types

  • Aluminum/polyester tape with a tinned copper drain wire: The most common type of construction.
  • Copper/polyester tape with a tinned copper drain wire: Provides enhanced shielding effectiveness.
  • Bare copper braid: Ideal for electromagnetic interference (EMI) reduction, especially when cables experience frequent movement.
  • Tinned copper braid: Effective against EMI in corrosive environments.
