ARMCON Armoured Control Multi-Conductor, 600V
Unshielded armoured control cables can be used for operation of control automation equipment. Interlocked armour replaces the use of conduit for mechanical protection. Cables can be directly buried, installed in raceways, including cable tray in wet or dry environments. Cables are suitable for use in outdoor exposed applications and is rated for damp or dry locations in -40°C (-40°F) environments.
