INTRODUCTION
The steady growth in automation of production processes in industry, especially distributed process control across large user sites like oil refining and petrochemical plants, the steel industry, power stations etc. necessitates the reliable transmission of electrical signals, process data and control information.
Today, in a continuous process plants like refinery, fertilizer, cement, steel etc. various parameters like temperature, pressure flow, level etc. are converted into electrical signals which are fed to control room. In control room these signals are analyzed, compared and suitable commands are sent to the field to take corrective action. The control room has become the brain of the instrumentation cables are the arteries.
Instrumentation cable are mainly defined in Indian Standard IS 1554/7098 Part 1, British Standard BS5308 Part 1 & Part 2 and European standard BS EN 50288-7, amongst others. We can also work with customers to develop cables designed and manufactured to meet their applications' specific requirements for industries including oil, gas & petrochemical, automation and process control, and marine & offshore.
Instrumentation cables have very diverse applications and are designed for use in communication and instrumentation applications. Cables made to specific rigid requirements and standards are used in process controls, transmission of critical signals, control and automation systems, and monitor networks as well as in intrinsically safe systems in hazardous areas like oil, gas and petrochemical plant, power plants, etc.
Some of the major national standards according to which we manufacture our instrumentation cables include:
- Indian IS 1554 / 7098 part 1
- British BS5308 Part 1 and Part 2 Cables
- British / European BS EN 50288-7 Cables
