Belden Alpha Essentials Communication & Control Series Data Cable, 305m Cable Length, Slate Jacket - 2241C SL001

This data cable is designed for communication and control installations requiring a single screened pair with a robust PVC outer sheath. It provides a compact, insulated link for signal transmission in electrical and automation systems, operating across a wide service temperature range and meeting multiple international approvals.

Features & Benefits

• 305m continuous length supports long-run installations
• Tin-plated copper conductors reduce corrosion risk
• Single pair with drain wire enables effective screening
• PVC jacket offers chemical resistance and mechanical protection
• Rated 300V for moderate-voltage signal applications
• Suitable to 80 °C for higher-temperature environments

Applications

• Suitable for control wiring in automated plant systems
• Ideal for connection between sensors and controllers
• Used for signal routing in factory electrical cabinets
• Can be used for instrumentation in mechanical assemblies

What conductor construction is used to aid flexibility?

Conductors comprise multiple tinned copper strands configured as 16 core strands per conductor to combine flexibility with conductivity.

How is electrical screening implemented to reduce interference?

The pair is wrapped with aluminium/Mylar tape with a 25% overlap and includes a tinned copper drain conductor to provide a low-impedance path to earth.

What jacket properties affect installation and routing?

The sheath is PVC with a nominal 0.032 wall offering abrasion resistance and is available in slate with black print identification for easy circuit marking.

Which standards and approvals govern its use in industrial settings?

It holds CE, CSA and UL recognitions and conforms to CMG FT4 requirements for fire behaviour and relevant AWM/Style ratings.

What mechanical limits should installers observe during pull-in?

Maximum pull tension is 33 lb and the recommended bend radius is ten times the cable diameter to prevent conductor or jacket damage.
