Low voltage Multi Conductor Unshielded CMR Riser SR-PVC Insulation 300V Security Cable

Low Voltage Multi Conductor Unshielded CMR Riser SR-PVC Insulation 300V security Cable is a special cord used in cabling and recommended for use because of its desirable good standard and qualities. This cable is good for use because its meets the minimum recommended requirements of the international approved standards. The low voltage unshielded security cable is fitted with a bare copper conducted which is stranded. The copper is to ASTM B8, B3 and B286. The stranded bare copper is then insulated with a color-coded, Premium-grade S-R-PVC.

PVC is a world class insulation material which adds to the good quality of the cable. The multi-colored insulated conductors have an external jacket made of PVC, which combines them together. The cable on the other hand is not shielded because it can contain the electromagnetic effect without interfering with its functioning. This low voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable is available at affordable prices to our consumers in spite of the good quality cable we offer.

Conductor

To transmit electricity through the cable, the Low Voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable is fitted with a copper conductor. The bare copper wire is stranded and of ASTM B3, ASTM B8, ASTM B286. Copper is preferably used for conduction because of its desirable qualities and properties. Up to now, copper is the metal with the best electrical and thermal conductivity.

The excellent conductivity is due to the many electrons that transmit electrical charges in the partially filled outermost energy band in its atomic structure. The electrons have enough space and therefore conduction is at a high velocity with minimal power losses and low resistance. The excellent thermal conductivity is due the mobile electrons. This helps in dissipating heat suppose it builds up in the system.

Besides, its good thermal and electrical conductivity, copper has very high tensile strength. High tensile strength contributes to its resistance to breakage, creep and nicks. The creep resistance prevents loosening and breaking at connection ensuring a strong long lasting connection. Its resistance to breaking enables it to withstand the multiple folding and unfolding it undergoes during installation or transport.

Copper wire is highly ductile and therefore can be drawn into the required gauge sizes with ease an attribute which makes it highly flexible.

Insulation

Voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable has a Polyvinyl Chloride, PVC as the insulating material. PVC is a reputable insulation material with zero electrical conduction which was long discovered. PVC is a thermoplastic polymer. The PVC is modified with stabilizers, lubricants and plasticizers to improve its insulation. It has a relatively wide resistance to common chemicals such as oils, acids and alkalis that are known to be affecting and eating up insulation materials.

Its structural strength adds to the cable’s toughness, resistance to abrasion, mechanical strength and ductility. PVC is a good flame retardant and therefore can help prevent further spread of fire in case of fire breakout.

PVC’s Temperature range is also relatively wide, about 150 degrees Celsius, which is between -40 and 105 degrees Celsius. This enables it to be applicable in different environments. PVC material is modified and can freely flex making installation and transport easier since it can fit in cable trays when folded for transport.

Jacketing

Most often than not, a multi-conductor cable is fitted with an overall external jacket that binds all the many cables together. Our Voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable is fitted with a jacket made from Polyvinyl Chloride, PVC material. The jacket not only binds the multi conductors together but also protects it contents from physical and chemical factors that would damage them and retard their functionality. PVC is abrasion proof, resistant to weather, UV and moisture and therefore not threatened by them. It also resists most chemicals, acids and bases that could react with the cable and conductor to slow or stop their functioning. The insulators are color coded yellow, red, green, white and black while the jacket is grey for easy phase identification during installation.

Application

Our Voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable is used in various fields because of its wide chemical and physical properties. In spite of the many environmental conditions of work, it is mostly used in security. It is used to make and install CCTV cameras for video surveillance. The cable is also used in intercom and to make access controls. In homes, the Voltage Multi-conductor Unshielded Security Cable is used in making Home Theaters and fitting burglar alarms. When used in these fields, the cable responds fast and the consumer is never worried of constantly having to replace the equipment and gadgets.

Approval and Certification

The low voltage multi-conductor unshielded CMR Riser is approved and certified by the following international standards organizations.

• NEC articles
