3mm Dia Coaxial Mineral Insulated Wire For Signal Transmission

3mm Outside Diameter Coaxial Mineral Insulate Cable For Signal Transmission Application

3mm Outside Diameter Coaxial Mineral Insulate Cable for Signal Transmission Application is a mineral insulated coaxial cable with an outside diameter 3mm for the use of signal transmission. 

 

Due to all materials used are inorganic materials, can undoubtedly work in high temperature state, up to 1200℃. At the same time, the radiation resistance of inorganic materials is greatly higher than that of any other known organic materials, so they are widely used in nuclear power engineering.

This kind of coaxial cable, triaxial cable with different insulation materials, possess different electrical properties accordingly which can be used in different environments.

The general structure of triaxial and coaxial cables is as follows:

Stainless steel sheath

exterior insulating layer

Interior insulation layer

Triaxial cable construction

Stainless steel

conductor

Pure copper shield

Insulation materials

Stainless steel sheath

Pure copper shield

 

Coaxial cable sheath material generally uses 300 series of stainless steel as sheath material and conductor material for core. According to different requirements, generally the cable will be composed of stainless steel (304L), oxygen-free copper, pure nickel wire and steel cladded copper (stainless steel cladded oxygen-free copper). Different wire core materials have no effect on the electrical properties.

Name	Outside Diameter (mm)	Insulation Material	Line Capacitance(pF/m)	Insulation(Ω·m)	Withstand Voltage (DCV)
Coaxial cable	3,4,6	Al2O3	145	＞1013	3000/1min
		Silicon oxide	95
		Magnesium oxide	285

 

The conductor material of mineral insulated triaxial cable (conductor material) is generally of stainless steel (304L), oxygen-free copper, pure nickel wire and SS cladded copper (oxygen-free copper cladded with stainless steel) according to different requirements. The internal shielding material is commonly used: 316 stainless steel, copper lined stainless steel or oxygen-free copper.

Generally, the electrical performance requirements of triaxial cable are mainly between the conductor and the inner shield. Different application environments also have different requirements for capacitance and voltage resistance.
