Description
This 18 AWG 4 conductor vinyl nylon tray cable (VNTC), also known as PVC/Nylon, is a general purpose 600 volt shielded control cable for use where shielding from electro-static interference is required in power, control and lighting circuits. It is suitable for a broad range of commercial and industrial uses.
The Exposed Run (ER) rating on this cable means it meets crush and impact testing requirements, and is therefore tough enough to run outside a cable tray without additional protection, unlike standard tray cables which must be installed inside a conduit, raceway or other protection.
Applications:
- Power, control and lighting circuits
- In free air, raceways, and direct burial
- In wet or dry locations
- Class 1, Division 2 industrial hazardous locations per NEC
Construction:
- 18 AWG Fully annealed stranded bare copper conductor per ASTM B3
- Class B stranding per ASTM B8
- 4 Conductors
- ICEA color code Method 1, Table E-2: black, red, blue, orange
- Insulation is flame-retardant PVC with clear polyamide (nylon)
- Aluminum/polymer tape shield providing 100% coverage
- Stranded, tinned copper drain wire
- Lead-free, flame-retardant, sunlight-resistant Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacket
Standards:
- UL 1581
- UL 62 NEC Type TFFN conductors
- IEEE 1202
- RoHS compliant
- Rated for UV/sunlight resistance
- UL 1277 Type TC-ER for 3 or more conductors
