EN50288-7 cables

STANDARDS
Basic design to EN 50288-7

APPLICATION 
The armoured LSZH sheathed cables are generally used when the risk of mechanical damage is increased. The
galvanized steel wire armour provides excellent protection. Generally, the cables are used within industrial process  manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice transmission signals and services. Also used for the  interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments, the LSZH sheath can reduce toxic smoke and fume emission.
