The EL147 is a premium six-conductor, 6-wire load cell cable engineered to maintain accuracy and stability over long distances. Its stranded 20 AWG tinned copper conductors are optimized for flexibility, allowing for straightforward routing through conduit and junction boxes. A key advantage of this cable is its suitability for longer runs where remote sense lines are essential for compensating for voltage drops, ensuring precise weight data reaches the indicator.
To address specific installation challenges, Rice Lake offers this cable in four distinct variants. The EL147 Standard Cable, with its red PVC jacket and braided shielding, is ideal for general-purpose indoor and outdoor weighing applications. Where rodents or abrasion pose a threat, the EL147RP features a tinned copper overbraid and an advanced "NAW" chemical coating to deter pests and enhance durability. The EL147HE is engineered for hostile environments with a robust polyurethane jacket that resists chemicals and abrasion while maintaining high flexibility. For intrinsically safe applications, the EL147IS utilizes a polyurethane over PVC double jacketing with foil and braided wire shields, and it must be wired according to the Factory Mutual System-approved diagram.
