3 things to know about HELUDATA® EN-50288-7 signal cables

Signal cables are manufactured to transmit signals, sounds, and images in many different fields and industries. Signal cables can be used in elevators, cameras or audio systems, and machinery.

In addition to the ability to transmit signals, sounds, and images, the signal cable can send to the control center information about the status and operating position of the machines and equipment under control. Signal cables support remote control and serve effectively in industrial automation.

2.3 Properties of the signal cable

• Low levels of line attenuations and low mutual capacitances enable long transmission distances

• Cable elements are produced of non-hygroscopic materials

• HELUDATA® EN-50288-7 signal cables are specialized cable lines for the transmitting digital signals

• These products can be used in chemical or oil and gas environments as well as the petrochemical industry

• The cable is suitable for installation in dry and wet areas, both in open spaces or in tunnels.
