RE-2X(St)YSWAY-TP/TT Armored Instrumentation Cable
RE-2X(St)YSWAY-TP/TT is an armored instrumentation cable for industrial measurement, monitoring and process control circuits. It combines twisted pairs or triads with an overall foil screen, XLPE insulation and galvanized steel wire armor. PVC inner and outer jackets complete the design, with a UV-resistant black outer jacket.
Part of ETK Kablo’s instrumentation cable range, this cable provides a screened signal connection where the installation also requires mechanical protection.
Twisted Pairs or Triads with an Overall Screen
TP identifies twisted pairs, while TT identifies twisted triads. These arrangements group the conductors by circuit. An overall aluminium/polyester foil screen with a tinned copper drain wire helps reduce the influence of external electromagnetic interference when correctly terminated.
The TP/TT version uses a collective screen around the cable assembly. Where the specification calls for individually screened pairs or triads as well as an overall screen, see RE-2X(St)YSWAY-PiMF/TiMF instrumentation cable.
Steel Wire Armor and PVC Sheathing
Galvanized steel wire armor provides mechanical protection around the PVC inner jacket. The outer PVC jacket is UV resistant. Cable selection should account for the installation route, mechanical loads and environmental exposure; direct burial and chemical exposure requirements should be specified when requesting a quotation.
Conductor Cross-Sections and Cable Selection
The technical data lists conductor cross-sections of 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.50 and 2.50 mm². To specify RE-2X(St)YSWAY-TP/TT, state whether pairs or triads are required, the number of groups, conductor cross-section and total cable length. ETK Kablo can confirm the corresponding configuration and dimensional data for your enquiry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the pairs or triads individually screened?
This version has an overall foil screen. Individual pair or triad screens are a feature of the separately listed PiMF/TiMF version.
Is RE-2X(St)YSWAY-TP/TT an LSZH cable?
This product has PVC inner and outer jackets. If your project requires low-smoke, halogen-free sheathing, specify that requirement when selecting an alternative.
Does this cable have an FE180 or PH120 rating?
The listed flame retardancy test is IEC 60332-1-2. This does not establish FE180 or PH120 circuit integrity performance.
Request a Quotation
Contact ETK Kablo for a RE-2X(St)YSWAY-TP/TT quotation. Include the pair or triad count, conductor cross-section, required length and installation conditions so the cable specification can be checked against your project requirements.
