51196742-400 | Honeywell | Industrial Transducer Interface Cable

Product Overview

The Honeywell 51196742-400 is a specialized, high-performance interface cable designed for differential pressure transducers in demanding industrial settings. This 100-foot cable assembly facilitates the precise transmission of power and signals between field sensors and control room instrumentation. It ensures data accuracy in complex process loops where signal attenuation cannot occur. We provide this product in 100% Brand New and original condition, guaranteeing the structural integrity and electrical performance required for critical infrastructure.

Technical Specifications

The 51196742-400 utilizes high-grade materials to maintain a stable electrical path:

Engineering Advantages

• Extended Thermal Resilience: The PVC jacket maintains flexibility and dielectric strength across a wide temperature spectrum (-40°F to 185°F). This resilience prevents cracking in cryogenic environments and avoids insulation melting in high-heat processing zones.

• High-Voltage Safety Margin: A 600V rating provides a significant safety buffer for standard 24V DC instrumentation loops. This over-engineering protects the cable against transient voltage spikes and inductive coupling from adjacent high-power lines.

• Optimized Signal Reach: The 100-foot length allows for continuous runs from remote tank farms or pipelines to localized junction boxes without the need for signal-degrading splices. This continuous copper path minimizes resistance and maintains the calibrated accuracy of the pressure transducer.

• Mechanical Durability: The heavy-duty copper core supports a 20A current carrying capacity, offering superior mechanical pull-strength during installation through rigid conduits or cable trays. This prevents internal conductor stretching that often leads to intermittent signal loss.

FAQs

Q: Can I cut the 51196742-400 to a shorter length if 100ft is not required?

A: Yes. You can trim the cable to your specific requirements. However, you must use professional-grade stripping tools and high-quality termination lugs to ensure the connection maintains the 20A current capacity and prevents oxidation at the contact points.

Q: Is this cable suitable for direct burial?

A: While the PVC jacket resists moisture and a wide temperature range, we recommend installing the cable within a conduit for direct burial applications to protect it from mechanical damage and long-term soil acidity.

Q: Does this cable come with the transducer connectors pre-installed?

A: This part number typically refers to the bulk 100ft cable assembly. It provides the installer with the flexibility to use specific terminal connectors or glands required by your particular differential pressure transducer model.

Q: Is this a "New Surplus" or "Brand New" factory item?

A: We sell this unit as 100% Brand New. Unlike surplus cables that may have sat in uncontrolled environments for years—leading to PVC degradation—our stock provides fresh insulation and oxidation-free copper for maximum service life.
