AQ293 - West Penn Aquaseal 18-2 Shielded Multi-Conductor Cable, 1000ft
The West Penn AQ293 Aquaseal 18-2 Stranded Shielded Cable is designed for indoor and outdoor fire, security, and control applications. It features an overall 100% foil shield with drain wire that protects the cable’s signals from any outside interference that could hinder the cables performance. Using shielded cables in common in both indoor and outdoor mission critical environments. The AQ293 features 2 conductors that can support low voltage power, signal and circuit requirements. The AQ293 also features the West Penn Aquaseal technology that uses a 2 ply water swellable tape to protect the cable when installed in wet environments. This cable also features a UV rated, moisture resistant jacket that makes it ideal for exposed and underground applications.
The AQ293 is Direct Burial Rated
The West Penn AQ293 Aquaseal 18-2 Shielded Cable is constructed using (2) 18 gauge stranded bare copper conductors that are color coded black & red. It is also 300 volt rated.
