With a focus on signal integrity, durability, and customization, these cables ensure reliable communication between control systems and machinery—backed by strict quality control and a track record of user satisfaction. Whether for robotics, manufacturing, or process control, Tianhuan’s control solutions are integral to efficient, safe industrial operations.

Control Cable: Core Features for Industrial Signal

Transmission

Control Cable is a specialized electrical cable designed to transmit control signals and low-voltage power in industrial automation, machinery, and instrumentation. Tianhuan’s control cable features multiple individually insulated conductors, often color-coded for easy identification, ensuring clear signal routing between control panels, sensors, actuators, and machinery.

Key features include:

• Electrical Interference Resistance: Insulation materials (like XLPE or PVC) and shielding (tinned copper braid or tape) minimize interference, ensuring accurate signal transmission in noisy industrial environments.
• Mechanical Durability: Robust sheathing resists abrasion, bending, and impact, making it suitable for harsh settings like manufacturing plants and conveyor systems.
• Environmental Protection: Designed to withstand temperature fluctuations, moisture, and chemicals, ensuring reliability in factories, robotics, and process control systems.

Available in voltage ratings from 300/500V to 0.6/1kV, Tianhuan’s control cable includes variants like KVV (PVC-insulated, PVC-sheathed) and 2XSLH (XLPE-insulated, low smoke zero halogen-sheathed), catering to diverse industrial needs.

LIYCY Cable: Shielded Control Cable for Sensitive Signals

LIYCY cable is a type of control cable with tinned copper wire braided screening, designed to protect sensitive control signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). Tianhuan’s LIYCY cable features PVC insulation and sheathing, with individually insulated conductors and an overall braided shield—ideal for applications where signal integrity is critical, such as robotics and precision machinery.

Its design advantages include:

• Shielding Effectiveness: The tinned copper braid blocks external interference, ensuring stable signal transmission in environments with motors, transformers, or other EMI sources.
• Flexibility: Suitable for dynamic applications where cables bend or move, such as robotic arms or conveyor systems.
• Compliance: Meets industrial standards for insulation resistance and temperature tolerance (-20°C to +70°C), ensuring safe operation in automated factories.

LIYCY cable is commonly used in control systems for packaging machinery, CNC equipment, and process control 仪表，where precise signal transmission directly impacts operational efficiency.

Control Wire: The Conductive Core of Control Cables

Control wire refers to the individual conductors within control cable that carry control signals and low-voltage power. Tianhuan’s control wire is typically made of high-purity copper (solid or stranded) for excellent conductivity, ensuring minimal signal loss. Stranded control wire offers enhanced flexibility, making it suitable for cables in moving parts (e.g., robotic joints), while solid conductors provide stability in fixed installations.

Key attributes:

• Isolation: Coated with PVC, XLPE, or low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) materials to prevent short circuits and protect against environmental damage.
• Color Coding: Each control wireis color-coded (e.g., black, red, blue) to simplify installation and troubleshooting, ensuring correct connection between sensors and control panels.
• Compatibility: Integral to all Tianhuan control cablevariants, including LIYCY cable et Power and Control Tray Cable, forming the backbone of signal transmission in industrial systems.

Power and Control Tray Cable: Integrated Solution for Tray Installations

Power and Control Tray Cable is a multi-purpose cable designed to transmit both low-voltage power and control signals, optimized for installation in cable trays—common in industrial facilities. Tianhuan’s Power and Control Tray Cable features separate power and control conductors within a single sheath, reducing installation complexity and saving space in trays.

Its design benefits include:

• Space Efficiency: Eliminates the need for separate power and control cablein trays, simplifying routing and reducing clutter.
• Durable Sheathing: Made of PVC or LSZH materials, resistant to oil, chemicals, and UV radiation, suitable for indoor and outdoor tray installations.
• Versatility: Used in manufacturing plants, data centers, and industrial complexes, powering machinery while transmitting control signals to regulate operation.

This cable meets standards for flame resistance and mechanical strength, ensuring safe performance in high-density cable tray environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Control Cables

How is control cable different from power cable?

Control cable transmits control signals and low-voltage power for regulating machinery, while power cables carry high-current electrical power. Control cable has multiple small conductors with shielding, unlike power cables with fewer large conductors.

What makes LIYCY cable suitable for EMI-prone environments?

LIYCY cable features tinned copper braid shielding that blocks electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable signal transmission in environments with motors, transformers, or other EMI sources—critical for precision equipment.

Can control wire be used independently of control cable?

Control wire is typically part of a control cable assembly, as its insulation alone may not withstand environmental stress. For standalone use, it requires additional protection (e.g., conduit), but it is most reliable within a control cable sheath.

What advantages does Power and Control Tray Cable offer in industrial settings?

Power and Control Tray Cable reduces installation time and space by combining power and control functions in one cable, simplifying routing in trays. Its durable sheath also resists industrial hazards like oil and chemicals.

Does Tianhuan offer customized control cable lengths or conductor counts?

Yes, Tianhuan provides customized control cable with varying conductor counts, lengths, insulation materials (PVC, XLPE, LSZH), and shielding options, tailored to specific industrial requirements while maintaining quality standards.
