LI2Y(St)CH Signal Cables

The LI2Y(St)CH PIMF cable is a data transmission cable with polyethylene-insulated twisted pairs, each individually foil shielded, with a common copper braid shield and a halogen-free outer sheath over them. It is used in buildings and facilities where halogen-free cable is required, on signal lines that need low capacitance between serial communication, measurement data and automation devices. In the category, Birtaş Kablo's LI2Y(St)CH-PIMF family is listed by the meter in pair counts and cross-sections such as 2x2x0.22+0.22 mm², 3x2x0.50+0.22 mm² and 2x2x1.5+0.50 mm²; the value after the plus sign is the cross-section of the drain wire in the pair shields. Choose the number of pairs according to the number of channels to be carried, and the cross-section according to line length and the device terminal block. This cable differs from the LI2Y(St)CY type only in its outer sheath: the PVC-sheathed CY type is not a substitute for this cable in projects that require halogen-free cable.

How to choose LI2Y(St)CH Signal Cables

The LI2Y(St)CH PIMF cable is a data transmission cable with polyethylene-insulated twisted pairs, each individually foil shielded, with a common copper braid shield and a halogen-free outer sheath over them. It is used in buildings and facilities where halogen-free cable is required, on signal lines that need low capacitance between serial communication, measurement data and automation devices.

  • Clarify the circuit duty first: power distribution, control, fire safety, Ethernet or analog signal.
  • Compare conductor cross-section, core count, insulation and shielding against the installation route.
  • Switch to the proper cable family early when flex duty, oil resistance, halogen-free jacket or fire integrity is required.
