5692 SL005

Multiple Conductor Cables

Multiple conductor cables are widely used in many applications, from signal and power transmission to various cases where control and signal routing are necessary. Among these is the 5692 SL005 application field and working principle, a multiple conductor cable that share the same basic components. This cable is very flexible and can be used in a wide range of applications, but in order to ensure proper performance and safety, an understanding of its working principles and components is essential.

Technical Specifications

The 5692 SL005 is a multiple conductor cable composed of eight separate conductors. All of the conductors measure 0.250” wide and are insulated with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation to provide high resistance to abrasion and processing. Each cable is marked with its respective conductor designations and can be identified by a sequential series of letters and numbers, followed by model number 5692 SL005. This cable features a high flexibility and low capacitance value, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications.

Types of Cable

The 5692 SL005 multiple conductor cable is available in two different conductor types: shielded and unshielded. The shielded model features a standard conductor array with an overall shield composed of aluminum foil and a layer of PVC sheathing for additional protection. The unshielded version of this cable is also composed of 8 conductors with the same external dimensions but without any type of additional shielding.

Working Principle and Characteristics

The working principle of the 5692 SL005 multiple conductor cable is the same for both the shielded and unshielded versions. The 8 conductors are insulated and grouped together, and then enclosed in an overall outer sheathing. All cables of this type rely on the magnetic field generated by the signal current traveling through each conductor to generate a protective electrostatic shield, which reduces higher frequency noise interference. The shielding provided by the outer PVC sheathing and the overall shield also protects the cable from other external sources of interference, such as radiofrequency and light.

The characteristics of the 5692 SL005 multiple conductor cable depend on the type of conductor used. Unshielded cables are designed to provide only electrical insulation of current-carrying conductors. Shielded cables, however, offer more protection from external noise sources as well as better performance in terms of signal integrity. Both types of cables are rated to operate between -20°C and +105°C and offer excellent protection against oil, acid and alkali.

Applications

The 5692 SL005 multiple conductor cable is commonly used in a wide range of applications. Its flexibility allows it to be used in applications where space is an issue, such as shielded control panels and junction boxes. It is also suitable for use in local area network (LAN) systems due to its low capacitance value. It may also be used in industrial process automation, automotive applications, telecommunications systems, safety circuits, and audio/video equipment.

Conclusion

The 5692 SL005 multiple conductor cable is an effective solution for many applications due to its flexibility, shielding, and low capacitance value. An understanding of the working principle and components of the cable is essential for ensuring its proper performance and safety in various applications. Its wide range of applications allows it to be used in many industrial, automotive, and telecommunications applications, as well as in consumer audio/video equipment.
