10-9 Shielded VNTC Tray Cable Type TC-ER (THHN PVC 600V)

This 10 AWG, 9-conductor shielded VNTC (Vinyl Nylon Tray Cable) is a robust industrial control cable designed for heavy-duty applications in cable trays, conduits, and raceways. With 100% foil shielding and a 10 AWG copper build, it is ideal for high-ampacity control circuits where electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection is mandatory.

Key Features of 10-9 Shielded VNTC

• EMI/RFI Suppression: The overall aluminum foil shield, paired with a tinned copper drain wire, ensures signal integrity by blocking electrical noise from motors and high-frequency equipment.

• Heavy-Duty Construction: 10 AWG conductors offer superior current-carrying capacity for longer runs where voltage drop is a concern for control logic.

• Environmental Resistance: The flame-retardant PVC jacket is sunlight-resistant and moisture-resistant, approved for direct burial and use in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations.

• Industrial Durability: Rated for 600V and 90C, the THHN/PVC construction provides the mechanical strength needed for industrial environments.

Common Applications

• Industrial Control Systems: Used for connecting control panels to remote sensors, actuators, and solenoids in manufacturing plants.

• Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs): Excellent for low-voltage control signals near VFDs where EMI shielding is required to prevent signal distortion.

• Power Plant Infrastructure: Ideal for telemetry and monitoring circuits in utilities and power generation facilities.

• Wastewater Treatment: Durable enough for the chemical and moisture exposure found in treatment plant raceways and trays.
