About:

Gaalflex Stranded Bare Copper Al Tape PVC Instrumentation 600 TOS Tray Cable. This type of cable is commonly used for instrumentation and control applications in industrial settings. It typically consists of stranded bare copper conductors with an aluminum tape and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulation.

Also Known As:

• Gaalflex Tray Cable
• Bare Copper Stranded Cable
• PVC Insulation
• Instrumentation Cable
• 600 TOS Cable
• Tray Cable Applications
• Aluminum Tape Shielding

Application:

• Conductor Material: It features stranded bare copper conductors, which are known for their excellent electrical conductivity.

• Shielding: This cable is equipped with aluminum tape shielding, which provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI).

• Insulation: The PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulation provides electrical insulation and protection for the conductors.

• Application: This cable is commonly used in industrial settings for connecting instrumentation and control equipment. It is suitable for use in tray cable applications, where it can be installed in cable trays for organized and efficient wiring.
