Armoured Mechanical Protection
Armour improves protection for control routes exposed to mechanical impact, burial or outdoor installation.
Armoured Control Cable
Armoured Control Cable for control, signal and instrumentation circuits.
Armoured Control Cable supports control cable routes where mechanical protection is required in plant, substation or industrial installation conditions.
Product Overview
Armoured Control Cable should be selected according to the actual project route, not by product name alone. Before quotation, review core count, conductor size, insulation material, screen or armour requirement and control-system route. Datasheet wording, compliance documents and final supply notes should stay aligned with the selected standard and installation conditions.
Applications
- industrial control panels and auxiliary circuits
- substation and power plant control wiring
- automation, monitoring and signal routes
- instrumentation circuits where screening or pair identification may be required
Construction
Annealed copper conductor with PVC or XLPE insulation, optional overall screen, pair screen, armour and sheath according to route requirements. Core numbering, pair identification and flame/LSZH properties should follow the selected standard.
Marking on Cable
FARWALK CABLE – Armoured Control Cable – [standard] – [voltage] – [core/pair x size] – [year] – [meter mark]
Cable Identification
- Core identification can use number marking or color coding according to project requirement.
- Pairs, triads or screened units should be identified clearly for instrumentation circuits.
Standards
- IEC 60502-1
- GB/T 9330
- BS EN 50288-7 where applicable
Main Features
Control Circuit Continuity
Core count and identification support panel wiring, interlocks, instrumentation and auxiliary control circuits.
Screen and Sheath Options
For Armoured Control Cable, screening, armour and sheath material should be reviewed according to noise and installation risk.
Product Selection Guide
Circuit Function
Confirm whether the cable is for control, auxiliary, instrumentation, signal or panel wiring before selecting structure.
Core / Pair Requirement
Define core count, pair or triad arrangement, conductor size and identification method from the wiring diagram.
Screen and Armour
Use screened or armoured versions when electromagnetic interference or mechanical protection is required.
Sheath Performance
Select PVC, XLPE, LSZH or flame-retardant construction according to environment and fire-safety requirements.
