BS 5308 Part 1 Type 2 Armoured PVC Instrumentation

BS 5308 part 1 type 2 cables incorporate a SWA style armour for use in aggressive process control and instrumentation applications where mechanical damage is a danger. Like the unarmoured versions, they are available with collective aluminium tape (CAT) screening or individual and collective aluminium tape (ICAT) screens.
