Control & Instrumentation Cables

Cable solutions for industrial control, signal transmission and automation systems. Final cable selection depends on circuit function, core or pair arrangement, shielding requirement, flexibility, motion type and installation environment. Instrumentation-specific pair / core arrangement, shielding and project-standard requirements are reviewed against the buyer’s specification.

02 / Application

In Industrial Automation Systems

Control and instrumentation-related cables are used between control equipment, machine components, field devices and moving automation systems. Cable selection depends on the circuit purpose, core or pair arrangement, shielding requirement, motion condition and installation environment.

Connection routes are illustrative only. Actual cable type, core or pair arrangement, shielding and motion requirements must be confirmed for the selected equipment and project specification.

Choose by Connection Task

Different automation connections may require different cable constructions. Start with the circuit or motion requirement, then confirm the final cable type against the project specification.

01

Control & Shielded

Representative modelsKVV / KVVR / KVVP / KVVRP / RVVP

  • Control-circuit and equipment connection
  • Fixed or flexible installation to be confirmed
  • Shielding / screening where specified
  • Core count and conductor size by project
02

Signal & Data

Representative familyRS485 Data Transmission Cable

  • Industrial serial-data transmission
  • Core / pair arrangement by project
  • Shielding / screening where specified
  • Interface and transmission requirements to be confirmed

Paired data-transmission requirement — exact construction to be confirmed by selected cable type.

03

Motion & Automation

Representative modelsTRVV / TRVVP / IRS05VV / IRS07VV / IRS10VV

  • Cable-Carrier / Drag-Chain Cable
  • Robotic / articulated movement review
  • Flexibility and mechanical conditions to be confirmed
  • Shielding / screening where specified
  • Core arrangement and installation route by project

Cable-carrier flexing and robotic torsional movement are different motion conditions and should be reviewed separately.

04 / Representative constructions

Representative Cable Constructions

Different connection tasks may require different conductor, core, shielding and sheath arrangements. The examples below are provided for construction review reference only.

Representative examples only — actual conductor construction, core or pair arrangement, shielding, materials, dimensions and performance requirements shall be confirmed according to the selected cable type and project specification.

Representative multi-core control cable construction

Multi-core Control Cable

KVV / KVVR

  • Insulated cores
  • Core assembly
  • Outer sheath

Representative unshielded control-cable construction only. Final core count, conductor construction, materials and dimensions depend on the selected cable type.

Representative shielded control cable construction

Shielded Control Cable

KVVP / KVVRP / RVVP

  • Insulated cores
  • Core assembly
  • Overall shielding / screening layer
  • Outer sheath

Representative shielded construction only. Exact shielding method and coverage depend on the selected cable type.

Representative dynamic motion cable construction

Dynamic Motion Cable

TRVV / TRVVP / Robot Cable

  • Insulated cores
  • Core assembly
  • Outer sheath

Representative dynamic-motion cable only — cable-carrier and robotic applications may require different conductor, stranding, shielding and sheath designs according to the motion profile.

TRVVP or selected motion cables may require shielding. Final structure and motion-performance requirements must be confirmed by model and project.

Illustrative constructions only. Core colours, layer appearance and proportions do not define a specific cable model, material specification or wiring standard.
