APPLICATION
UNITRONIC® EB CY (TP) is a flexible data cable with a blue outer sheath for intrinsically safe circuits for use in
explosive areas.
The cable meets the requirements of VDE 0165 part 1 where a special marking for cables of hazard type -i-
(intrinsically safe) is specified.
These cables are not allowed to use for other purposes than hazardous (explosive) areas.
Cables with blue outer sheath should only be used if no confusion with intrinsically safe circuits is possible.
UNITRONIC
®
EB CY (TP) is highly resistant against acids, lyes and certain oils at room temperature.
The cores of UNITRONIC
®
EB CY (TP) are twisted into pairs in order to uncouple the conductor circuits and to
protect them from the external capacitive interference.
CABLE MAKE UP
Conductor fine wire strands of bare copper wire
Core special PVC-based core insulation
Core ident code core identification according to DIN 47100
Stranding cores are stranded to pairs, pairs are stranded in
layers
Taping wrapping with plastic foil
Screen screen of tinned copper wire
Outer sheath outer sheath of special PVC-based compound
Colour colour blue, RAL 5015
