Belden XTRA-GUARD 2 Series Control Cable, 30m Cable Length, 300V Voltage - 25114 BK005

This control cable provides screened, multi‑core connectivity for industrial automation and electrical installations, designed to carry control and signalling circuits in demanding environments. It is suited to systems requiring a 300V rating and robust conductor construction, and performs across a wide temperature range for indoor and protected outdoor use.

Features & Benefits

• Screened assembly reduces electromagnetic interference for cleaner signals
• Tin‑plated copper conductors resist corrosion for long service life
• LSZH flame‑retardant sheath limits toxic emissions in incidents
• Flame‑retardant VW‑1 construction improves circuit integrity under fire
• Rated for −30 to 90 °C operation across varied installations
• 300V voltage rating supports common control and instrumentation circuits

Applications

• Suitable for factory automation control panels and PLC wiring
• Ideal for machine tool control and servo feedback cabling
• Used with motor controllers and relay cabinets in production lines
• Can be used for instrumentation runs in process plants
• Used for interconnects within electrical switchgear assemblies

What is the conductor configuration inside the cable?

It contains four individually insulated cores, each with multi‑strand tinned copper conductors and a tinned copper drain wire integrated into the overall screen.

How is the cable screen constructed and what coverage does it provide?

The screen comprises a combination foil and tinned copper braid with a minimum of 70% braid coverage to provide effective screening against external interference.

What materials make up the outer sheath and what are its handling properties?

The outer sheath is a polyvinyl chloride formulation offering flexibility and sunlight resistance, with an added ripcord for easier jacket removal during installation.

How should installers manage mechanical strain during routing?

Adhere to a minimum bend radius of 10x cable diameter and limit pull tension to the specified maximum to avoid conductor or jacket damage.

What markings and approvals appear on the cable for regulatory identification?

The jacket is printed with manufacturer identification and applicable AWM/CSA/CE markings reflecting recognised safety and performance standards.
