Alpha Wire Alpha Essentials Communication & Control Control Cable, 6 Cores, 0.09mm² 28 AWG, Screened, 30 m, Grey

Belden Alpha Essentials Communication & Control Series Control Cable, 100m Cable Length, 6 Cores - 3306 SL033

This control cable is a screened, six-core cable designed for communication and control wiring in industrial and electronic systems. It combines tinned copper conductors, a slate PVC jacket and a robust insulating system to operate across a wide temperature span. The cable is suited to environments where signal integrity and flame performance are required, and is supplied on a 100m length for installation and spool-mounted distribution.

Features & Benefits

• Stranded 7-strand conductors deliver improved Flex performance
  Screened construction maximises immunity to EMI and noise
  PVC jacket resists mechanical wear in typical installations
  Rated to 600V for control and low-voltage power circuits
  Flame-behaviour VW-1, FT4, FT1 reduces fire propagation risk
  Wide operating range from -55 °C to 105 °C suits extremes

**Applications**

• Suitable for factory automation signal and control loops
  Ideal for connection to instrument panels and PLCs
  Used for remote circuit controls and telephony wiring
  Can be used for broadcast studio and audio control systems
  Suitable for security and monitoring installations requiring screened cable

What is the conductor construction and how does it help installation?

Each conductor is stranded with seven strands of tinned copper, which improves flexibility for routing and solderability where tinned surfaces aid termination.

How does the screening arrangement affect grounding practice?

The screen provides a return path for interference
it is usually terminated to earth at a single point to prevent ground loops while preserving signal integrity.

Which jacket colour and material are specified for identification and durability?

The outer jacket is slate-coloured PVC chosen for consistent identification and mechanical resistance in industrial routing.

In what lengths is the cable supplied for procurement?

It is provided as a 100m spool suitable for direct use or cutting to length on site.
