The demands of the modern Industrial environment and the vast selection of new electrical and electronic equipment has created a void in the market for the supply of Control & Instrumentation cables.
Leigh Cables are meeting this challenge by having the capability to manufacture a complete range of BS 5308 cables or by Re-Engineering an existing cable to meet a customers specific requirement on a just in time basis: for example taking a standard BS 5308 Part 1 Type 1 cable from inventory applying a single wire armour and Flame Retardant sheath in any colour.
These Control & Instrumentation cables are designed to meet both the performance requirements of the applicable standard, plus the rigours of installation and operation in demanding environments and applications. Cable options include BS 5308 Part 1 & 2, Type 1 & 2, the new EN 50288-7 specification, plus a vast range of Bus Cables.
Typical applications include:
- Industrial Data Solutions
- Fieldbus & Profibus
- DeviceNet™ & ControlNet™
- PLC / DCS
Leigh Cables also manufactures a range of Thermocouple extension and compensating cables with a number of different conductor sizes and types of construction. Solid or stranded conductors - Core colours can be British, German or American, these cables are manufactured with either an overall shield or individual pair shields with an overall shield. In addition we offer the option of galvanized steel wire armoured for direct burial, PVC Flame Retardant or LSZH Sheath.
