To maintain the best performance from the sensor, high quality cables and connectors are critical and must be selected to match the application. Economising by using low quality connection components is a false economy as performance, system lifetime and maintenance costs will suffer. Monitran uses a range of cables, connectors and factory-tested cable assemblies to maximise performance and extend service life.
Single-core overbraided cable
Used for smaller sized sensors where twin core is too large. Resistant to water, oils and most industrial chemicals with high temperature capability and an abrasion resistant outer stainless steel braid.
-Cores: Single, ETFE coated, white
-Shield: Braid, wraps around cores
-Insulation: ETFE
-Jacket: Stainless steel braid
-Diameter: 2.5mm
Twin-core overbraided cable
The most common sensor cable for use in harsh industrial environments. Resistant to water, oils and most industrial chemicals with high temperature capability and an abrasion resistant outer stainless steel braid. Excellent electrical interference rejection.
-Cores: Two, ETFE coated, black/white
-Shield: Foil, wraps around cores
-Insulation: ETFE
-Jacket: Stainless steel braid
-Diameter: 4.6mm
Three-core polyurethane cable
Employs a thick jacket of polyurethane to give heavy duty capability and long term stability in deep water. Three cores enable it to be used with a wide variety of sensor types. Excellent electrical interference rejection.
-Cores: Three, ETFE coated, blue/red/yellow
-Shield: Foil, wraps around cores
-Jacket: Polyurethane
-Diameter: 6.4mm
