PE Insulated Air Core/Jelly Filled Star Quad Railway Signalling Cables to VDE 0816/DIN 57816
 
Applications
 
  The cables are designed to give good protection to the core against inductive interference. The cables are used for outdoor signaling equipment.
Standards
  • VDE 0816/DIN 57816
Construction  
 
Conductors: Solid annealed bare copper 0.9/1.4mm as per ASTM B-3/IEC 60228 Class 1.
Insulation: Solid polyethylene as per ASTM D 1248/IEC 60708.
Cabling Element: Four insulated conductors are twisted together to form a quad.
Cable Core Assembly: The cores are cabled together in concentric layers to form the cable core. Units are identified by colour coded binders.
Core Wrapping: One or more non-hygroscopic polyester tapes are helically or longitudinally laid with an overlap.
Electrostatic Screen: Copper tape or copper wire braid with wire diameter of 0.12mm.
Bedding: PE or LSZH.
Electrostatic Armour: Two steel tapes of 0.5mm or 0.8mm are helically applied with gap. The outer tape will cover the gap left by the inner one.
Sheath: PE, PVC or LSZH.
Ripcord: Nylon ripcord may be placed parallel to the cores to facilitate sheath removal.
