Hi all,
I'm looking for a cable the can work with a 4-20mA pressure transducer but that also has a high tensile strength so I can hang the transducer from the same cable down into a 2000 ft. deep well.
Oh, and I've been given a 1/4" limitation on the diameter of this job.... I actually have a sample cable where there is a single insulated center conductor wrapped in two layers of steel reinforcing strands. They used the center for one conductor and soldered/brazed to the outer steel strands for the other. (I can be > 1/4" diameter near the transducer but the cable is fed through a 1/4" hole.)
But I'm not sure that will meet the Class I Div I requirement that they are looking for (although maybe if the sensor itself is C1D1 then maybe???
I'm not actually very optimistic finding something but figured if anyone had seen something like this in the past, I'd find them here.
Thanks
