When equipment needs power, signal and compressed air at the same time, a hybrid composite cable can greatly simplify installation.
On ships and at industrial sites, many devices need power, signal and compressed air at the same time. A hybrid composite cable strands conductors and pneumatic tubes into a single cable, reducing the number of cable runs and saving installation space.
Lxpal hybrid composite cable uses three 1.5 mm² bare copper conductors (48×0.20 stranded, resistance < 13.3 Ω/km, compliant with IEC 60228) with one or two polyamide air tubes (8 mm OD / 6 mm ID), wrapped with non‑woven tape and sheathed in PVC.
The cable has an outer diameter of 18 to 20 mm, a rated voltage of 250 V and a static operating temperature of -20 to +70 °C, and it is flame‑retardant to IEC 60332‑1. When selecting, confirm the number of air tubes required, the ambient temperature of the installation and the voltage rating.
