3G 0.75mm² Shielded Cable

Signal integrity is the first thing to fail on a noisy factory floor.
A single intermittent data drop on a sensor line can stop a packaging machine for half a shift.
The 3G 0.75mm² shielded cable removes that variable. It combines three finely stranded 0.75 mm² copper conductors with a dense tinned-copper braid shield, built for industrial control, signal, and measurement circuits where electrical noise is a constant threat. Fewer re-tested runs, fewer unexplained PLC faults.


Shielding That Blocks Field Noise, Not Just Claims It Does

  • Dense tinned-copper braid (≥85 % optical coverage)
    Braid coverage sits at or above 85 % across every batch — no bare spots, no stretched mesh near bend points.
    This keeps induced noise from Variable Frequency Drives, motor cables, and adjacent power lines out of the signal pair.
    Result for your line: 4–20 mA loops and encoder signals stay clean without adding ferrites or re-routing trays.

  • 0.75 mm² fine-wire conductors — not the stiff 1.0 mm² that breaks at the terminal
    Each core uses class 5 flexible plain copper stranding. The cable bends into tight control-panel ducts and around cable chains without work-hardening or snapping.
    On a retrofit: You land conductors into push-in or screw terminals once. No strands break off. No re-stripping.

  • Numbers-marked cores, no tape peeling, no reading glasses
    Black cores with white digits “1”, “2”, “3” printed every 50 mm.
    Electricians terminate faster, with fewer cross-wire mistakes — especially under panel lighting.
    On a 200-cabinet project: That small time saving compounds into a measurable reduction in commissioning hours.

  • PVC jacket, but engineered for real-world chemical exposure
    The outer sheath is a modified PVC compound tested against mineral oils, cutting fluids, and mild alkalis. Not a universal chemical-proof jacket, but hardier than commodity PVC.
    Inside machine enclosures: Occasional splashes of hydraulic oil or coolant won’t embrittle the jacket in six months.

  • One cable, three functions in a single trunk
    Power a solenoid, carry the sensor signal, and share a common ground — all within one shielded assembly.
    Fewer cable trays, fewer cable glands, fewer drawings to verify. Procurement and installation costs drop together.

Where This Cable Earns Its Keep

  • Machine-building & automated production lines
    Interconnects PLC I/O cards, sensors, and actuator valves where VFD motor cables run in the same tray. The braid keeps the 0–10 V signal flat enough that the PLC doesn’t trigger false alarms.

  • Packaging & printing machinery
    Rapid acceleration, tight raceways, and constant vibration. The fine-wire cores survive the motion; the shield stops static discharge from film webs from corrupting registration sensors.

  • HVAC and chiller control panels
    Low-voltage thermostat, pressure transducer, and damper actuator wiring often run bundled. The 3-core shielded design reduces callbacks caused by induced 50/60 Hz hum.

  • Water treatment and pumping stations
    Pipe galleries are wet and chemically active. The oil-resistant PVC jacket holds up better than standard PVC when exposed to occasional chlorine-based cleaning agents or lubes, while the shield prevents VFD-induced measurement drift on flow meters.

  • Test & measurement setups in labs and calibration bays
    BNC-to-terminal-block adaptors and data-logger front ends need shielded twisted conductors. This cable gives three channels inside one jacket, cutting bench clutter.

Questions Engineers Ask Before They Specify

Can this cable be used with a VFD-adjacent analog signal (0–10 V / 4–20 mA) over 100 metres?
Yes, with installation discipline. The 85 % braid coverage handles capacitive coupling from adjacent power cables in the same tray. Keep at least 200 mm separation from unshielded motor cables. For runs beyond 100 m, we recommend glanding the shield at the cabinet end only, to avoid ground-loop currents. If your loop is critical, request an extended test report — we can supply frequency-dependent transfer-impedance data.

Do you offer cut-to-length or custom marking?
Standard supply is 100 m, 200 m, and 500 m reels, but we provide cut-to-length service down to 30 m for project trials. Custom jacket marking — your part number, project name, sequential metre marking — is available with a 3,000 m minimum. Marking uses white-ink inkjet, readable against black and grey jackets.

What is the lead time for non-stock colours (grey jacket)?
Grey is held as a standard article alongside black, with same-day dispatch for stock lengths. If you require RAL 7032 pebble-grey or RAL 5015 sky-blue for internal colour-coding, lead times move to 4–5 weeks. Tooling already exists for 6.8 mm O.D.; we just run a separate extrusion batch.

Can the shield be terminated as a protective earth (PE) conductor in an emergency-stop circuit?
No. The braid cross-section on the 0.75 mm² variant is not dimensioned for PE fault currents. Use the third core for PE if the circuit requires a dedicated protective conductor. The shield serves functional earthing only, to drain noise, and must be bonded at the cabinet earth bar through a 360° EMC gland or clamp.
