What governing standard and construction define EIFA ZH C1 (NF M 87-202 EIFA-ZH C1 LSZH Individual & Overall Screened Armoured Instrument Cable)?
EIFA ZH C1 (NF M 87-202 EIFA-ZH C1 LSZH Individual & Overall Screened Armoured Instrument Cable) is manufactured in accordance with NF M 87-202 / NF C 32-070 C1 for 500 V service over -30 °C to +70 °C. Its 10-layer construction comprises stranded bare & tinned copper conductor, al/pet individual screen, halogen-free individual sheath, special halogen-free compound core insulation, polyester binder, al/pet overall screen, halogen-free inner sheath, inner steel armour tape, outer steel armour tape, halogen-free outer sheath.
What is the minimum bending radius and installation temperature for EIFA ZH C1?
The minimum installed bending radius for EIFA ZH C1 is 10 × OD across its continuous operating temperature range of -30 °C to +70 °C, ensuring mechanical and dielectric stability without conductor or insulation strain.
How are the concentric layers of EIFA ZH C1 arranged from inside to outside?
From inside to outside, the construction sequence is: (01) Stranded bare & tinned copper conductor (High-conductivity bare & tinned copper conductor per NF M 87-202 / NF C 32-070 C1); (02) Al/PET individual screen (Al/PET individual screen metallic electromagnetic screen (individual core / group layer)); (03) Halogen-free individual sheath (Extruded Halogen-free individual sheath protective layer (individual core / group layer)); (04) Special halogen-free compound core insulation (Extruded Special halogen-free compound dielectric (individual core / group layer)); (05) Polyester binder (Helically applied polyester binder); (06) Al/PET overall screen (Al/PET overall screen metallic electromagnetic screen (lapped tape)); (07) Halogen-free inner sheath (Extruded Halogen-free inner sheath protective layer (continuous layer)); (08) Inner steel armour tape (Inner steel armour tape mechanical protection (lapped tape)); (09) Outer steel armour tape (Outer steel armour tape mechanical protection (lapped tape)); (10) Halogen-free outer sheath (Extruded Halogen-free outer sheath protective layer (continuous layer)).
What factory test certificates are supplied with EIFA ZH C1?
Every production drum or spool of EIFA ZH C1 undergoes routine conductor DC resistance, dimensional and dielectric/integrity testing per NF M 87-202 / NF C 32-070 C1, and is delivered with an EN 10204 3.1 factory test certificate.
