Belden 1069A Tray & TC Cable | 2-Pair 16AWG Instrumentation Cable | PVC-Nylon | 600V TC-ER | Shielded | Black

Overview

The Belden 1069A Instrumentation Cable is designed for industrial control applications, including programmable logic controllers (PLC), distributed control systems (DCS), low-voltage digital control (24V), and instrumentation (4-20mA, 0-10V). Featuring 2 pairs of 16AWG bare copper conductors, an overall Beldfoil® shield, and a durable PVC-Nylon insulation, this cable ensures superior signal integrity and protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI). It is 600V TC-ER and 150V NPLF rated, making it suitable for raceways, cable trays, and direct burial applications. Datasheet
