Belden Expands Its Line of Industrial Cables for Variable-frequency AC Motor Drive Applications
 

Belden, the innovator in VFD cable design, adds symmetrical 3-conductor 16 to 4/0 AWG VFD cables (including armored versions) to its VFD line to support a broader range of installation options and customer requirements – including MSHA approvals.

Variable-frequency AC motor drive output cables are subject to harsh operating environments characterized by high voltage spikes, high noise levels and adverse environmental conditions. Typical cabling solutions for this application have been unshielded tray cables, single-conductor lead wire installed in conduit or continuously-welded armored cable. These solutions suffer from complex, costly installation and potential reliability problems. Belden Variable-frequency Drive (VFD) cables were designed and engineered to overcome these challenges.
