An Overview Of Control Cables


by Arun Kohli

Control Cables is used for transferring information about the operating condition of a particular machine from the source of control to the machine sensors which are controlled. These types of cables are used when directly accessing the control sensors of machine is not possible. Control Cables are installed in different types of instruments and equipment which operate according to the operating information that reaches their sensors via these cables. Control Cables majorly find application in protective relaying, remote control regulators and in other types of automations and process control systems. There are basically three major types of Control Cables which are briefly described in the sub-heads below:

YY Flex Control Cables

This type of Control Cable is known to be very versatile and it works well in all types of working environments that have less mechanical stress. YY is suitable for all types of covered indoor and outdoor installations and can work well in both dry and moist climatic conditions. YY is not appropriate for applications that involve heavy mechanical stress because there is no outer mechanical protection.

CY Control Cables

CY Control Cables are suitable for applications that require interference-free transmission. The construction of CY is quite similar to YY with a braided and tinned copper wire conductor that runs through the core of the cable. Though it is similar in construction but it can be used in applications that involve heavy mechanical stress because it has a mechanical protection cover over it. This mechanical protection cover is made of polyester binder tape that protects the internal conductor from the influence of electromagnetic disturbances.

SY Control Cables SY is the most flexible and robustly constructed type of Control Cables which can be used in an array of different applications. These flexible multi-core cables are made of class-5 copper conductors and galvanized steel wire braid (GSWB). The GSWB provides extensive mechanical protection to the core conductor which makes SY Control Cables suitable for many types of high mechanical stress applications. The bedding and PVC insulation provides extra protection to the core wire from electromagnetic disturbances. The transparent PVC sheath of SY helps in easily detecting the signs of damage, deterioration and corrosion which immensely facilitates its repair and maintenance.
