For DCS shielded cable technical specifications: what cross-sectional area should be chosen – 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.5 MM2? Should it be armored or unarmored? What is the minimum bending radius?

Usually 1.5 is used; 1.0 can also be used, but we use 1.5 in our designs. The minimum bending radius for the cable is 15 times the diameter of the cable. You can refer to the standard GB/T 12706-2002 \"Extruded-insulated power cables and accessories\", which provides detailed information on this

The 4-20MA signal cables from the field instruments to the control room generally use size 1. For 5 square meters, in cases where high power is required and separate power supply is needed for instruments and solenoid valves, a 24V power cable of size 2 is generally selected. For 5 square meters, 0.75 gauge wire is generally used for wiring in control room cabinets; a smaller gauge can also be used if the distances are short. The bending radius of cables is specified in the manufacturers’ catalogs. The use of armored cables in field applications is a growing trend (cables in control room cabinets should not be armored). . ) It seems easy to maintain and install as well. Some people say it looks messy, but I find it quite attractive :lol Everyone has their own opinion. This post was last edited by hwindforce on 2009-2-18 at 17:13.]
