ULTROL® 60+ Control Multi-Conductor Overall Shield Cable
ULTROL® 60+ instrumentation cable is a multi-conductor cable rated for 600 V and constructed with thermoset materials. It is specifically designed for both safety-related and non-safety-related applications in nuclear generating stations, where flame retardancy and radiation resistance are critical. For optimal performance in Class 1E circuits, it includes shielding to protect against external electrostatic interference. This cable can be installed in trays, conduits, ducts, or directly buried.
