Overview
The Alpha Wire 78140 EcoCable Mini is a foil-shielded, 10-conductor multiconductor cable designed for industrial control, machinery, and automation wiring applications. This 100 ft length cable combines reliable signal transmission with environmental compliance, making it suitable for control cabinets, sensor interfaces, and general industrial wiring where EMI rejection and halogen-free construction are required.
Key Features
- 10-Conductor Configuration — Provides flexible signal routing for multiple control circuits in a single cable run
- Foil Shield — Reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) for reliable signal integrity in industrial environments
- Halogen-Free Design — Meets RoHS and environmental compliance standards; lower outgassing in enclosed spaces
- MPPE Insulation — Enhanced temperature and abrasion resistance for reliable field performance
- UL/CSA Certified — Approved to UL AWM 21460, UL VW-1, and CSA I A/B FT1 standards for industrial machinery applications
- 300V Rating — Suitable for standard industrial control voltages
