Multiple classification of RF cables
The RF cable is a cable that transmits electromagnetic energy in the RF range. The RF cable is an indispensable component in various radio communication systems and electronic devices. It is widely used in wireless communication and broadcasting, television, radar, navigation, computer and instrumentation.
It is understood that the structure of RF cables is various and can be classified according to different ways and types.
Classified by cable structure
(1) Coaxial RF cable
Coaxial RF cables are the most common type of construction. Since the inner and outer conductors are in a concentric position, the electromagnetic energy is confined to propagate in the medium between the inner and outer conductors, so that it has the advantages of small attenuation, high shielding performance, use frequency bandwidth and stable performance. Usually used to transmit RF energy from 500 kHz to 18 GHz.
Currently, there are two types of commonly used RF coaxial cables: 50Ω and 75Ω RF coaxial cables. The characteristic impedance 75Ω RF coaxial cable is commonly used in CATV networks, so it is called CATV cable, and the transmission bandwidth can reach 1GHz. Currently, the transmission bandwidth of common CATV cable is 750MHz.
(2) Symmetrical RF cable
Symmetrical RF cable circuits have an open electromagnetic field. Due to the radiant electromagnetic energy at high frequencies, the attenuation is increased and the shielding performance is poor. In addition, the influence of atmospheric conditions is often used. Symmetrical RF cables are primarily used in the case of low RF or symmetric feeds.
(3) Spiral RF cable
The conductor in the coaxial or symmetrical cable can sometimes be made into a spiral coil shape, thereby increasing the inductance of the cable, thereby increasing the wave impedance of the cable and delaying the transmission time of the electromagnetic energy. The former is called a high resistance cable, and the latter is called a high resistance cable. For delay cables. If the spiral coils are wound at different densities in the length direction, a varistor cable can be made.
Classified by insulation type
(1) Solid insulated cable
The solid high frequency dielectric is filled between the inner and outer conductors of such a cable, and most of the soft coaxial RF cables use this type of insulation.
(2) Air insulated cable
In the insulation layer of the cable, most of the volume is air except for a part of the solid medium supporting the inner and outer conductors. Its structural feature is that it does not pass through the dielectric layer from one conductor to the other. Air insulated cables have very low attenuation and are a common type of structure used at ultra high frequencies.
(3) Semi-air insulated cable
This type of construction is an insulation type between the two, the insulation is also a combination of air and solid medium, but from one conductor to the other through the solid medium layer.
Classified by insulation
Plastic insulated cable, rubber insulated cable and inorganic mineral insulated cable.
Classified by softness
Soft cable, flat cable and rigid cable.
Classified by transmission power
Low power below 0.5 kW, medium power of 0.5-5 kW, high power cable of 5 kW or more.
Classified by product use characteristics
Low attenuation, low noise, small size and stable phase cable.

Sealand is a trustworthy manufacturer of Gas Mass Flow Meter, Gas Mass Flowmeter, Gas Flow Meter, Gas Flowmeter, Gas Meter, ATEX, IECEx & CE approved.
The installation is as follows.
1. Installation Steps
a) Choose correct installation site, taking installation area, pipeline, transmitter location &
valve location into consideration;
b) Install the meter according to direction mark on sensor;
c) Install the sensor & transmitter on pipeline;
d) Connect transmitter & sensor with 9-pin cable;
e) Start.
a) Sensor stays away from mechanical vibration source, for example, pump. Use flexible pipe to connect meter with pipeline if inevitable. The housing of meter must be standalone, out of touch with any other device. There must be 3 times the size of sensor between 2 sensors if there are many flow meters on the same pipeline, to avoid resonance.
b) Do not install sensor on pipeline that easily expands with hot and contracts with cold, especially near expansion joint, which leads to a worse stability.
c) Sensor stays away from industrial electromagnetic field, such as large generator and transformer, better 5m at least. Such device influences the performance of drive coil and pickoffs. Make sure magnetic field intensity less than 400A/m.
d) Sensor shall be installed on lower pipeline, to be easily full of fluid.
e) Make sure Ex-mark meet application requirements if in hazardous area.
f) Build a sunshade if the meter is under direct solar radiation. g) Keep the meter from corrosive liquid.
