Core Advantages & Product Features
High-Fidelity Signal Integrity: Engineered with low-capacitance conductors to transmit delicate negative DC voltages and high-frequency AC vibration signals without attenuation or phase distortion.
Superior EMI/RFI Suppression: High-coverage dual shielding blocks electromagnetic interference generated by nearby high-voltage power lines, VFDs, and heavy electric motors.
Industrial Chemical & Oil Resistance: Durable outer jacket resists degradation from turbine oil, petroleum solvents, moisture, and mild corrosive fumes inside power generation plants.
Vibration-Resistant Connectors: Features secure locking connector hardware built to prevent signal dropouts caused by continuous mechanical vibration on turbomachinery decks.
API 670 Standard Alignment: Matches impedance and capacitance requirements for API 670 compliant machinery protection systems.
Model Classification
CB-1011005001: Standard multi-pin shielded signal interconnect cable assembly.
VK-202A / VK-202A2: Preamplifier driver units linked via CB-series cabling.
VL-202A Series: Non-contact eddy-current proximity sensor probes.
VM-3D2 / VM-3V2: System rack monitor modules receiving signals via CB cable assemblies.
Environmental Tolerance Conditions
Operating Temperature: -30°C to +80°C (-22°F to +176°F)
Storage Temperature: -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
Operating Humidity: 0% to 98% RH (Non-condensing)
Oil & Chemical Resistance: Excellent resistance to lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids, and diesel.
Flame Retardancy: Meets IEC 60332-1 flame-propagation requirements.
Installation Method
Cable Routing: Route the CB-1011005001 cable along dedicated low-voltage instrument trays or conduit runs, keeping a minimum clearance of 300 mm (12 inches) from high-voltage AC power lines.
Connector Mating: Align keyways on the connector interfaces carefully, insert, and tighten the threaded coupling ring until fully hand-tightened.
Shield Grounding: Connect the cable shield braid to the earth ground terminal at the main monitoring rack end only. Leave the field/sensor end ungrounded to prevent ground loops.
Strain Relief: Secure the cable with vibration-dampening cable clamps every 1 to 1.5 meters along its path to relieve strain on the connector terminations.
Operating Instructions
Pre-Commissioning Test: Verify continuity and insulation resistance (megger test) across all conductors and shields before applying system power.
Bend Radius Maintenance: Ensure the cable bend radius does not drop below 60 mm during installation to protect inner conductors from mechanical fatigue.
Periodic Inspection: Inspect the outer jacket annually for signs of mechanical abrasion, oil saturation, or thermal degradation near hot steam pipes.
