according
to technical progress
Used as instrumentation cables, especially in petrochemical industry, not suitable for outdoor laying. Optional available
with light blue outer sheath for intrinsically safe use in explosive areas.
Colour Coding
Pair colouring a-wire: black b-wire: blue
Pair identification each shielded pair is identified by a number foil, numbers starting from 1 to (final number of
pairs)
