Yokogawa KS9*B Signal Cable
The Yokogawa KS9*B series signal cables, also cataloged as the KS9*B Signal Cable (50-50 pins), provide direct physical/electrical execution for high-integrity communication paths across industrial control platforms.
Suffix Breakdown & Model Matrix
- KS9*B: Base model series for 50-50 pin signal transmission, featuring style code B configuration.
- Length Suffixes: Designators such as -01 for 1 meter up to -10 for a maximum length of 10 meters.
- Option Code (/NL): Supports CSA Non-Incendive Instrumentation ratings for hazardous locations.
Hardware Specifications
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|

4-20 mA HART Loop Protocol and CJC Loop Integration
The integrated connection architecture supports robust industrial bus integration, including V net coaxial configurations (10BASE-5 and 10BASE-2) and RIO bus twisted-pair topologies. Polyethylene insulation paired with an IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating protects signal integrity against harsh environmental stressors. Minimum bending radii are strictly enforced—100 mm for V net (10BASE-5) and RIO bus cables, and 50 mm for V net / ER bus (10BASE-2) variations—to prevent mechanical degradation of internal conductive paths and maintain low-latency data communication.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the KS9*B cable be routed alongside high-voltage power conduits in the field?
A: Coaxial and twisted-pair signal cables should maintain mandatory physical separation from high-voltage power lines to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) coupling.
Q: What precautions should be observed regarding minimum bending radius during installation?
A: Maintain a minimum bending radius of 100 mm for V net (10BASE-5) and RIO bus cables, and 50 mm for V net (10BASE-2) variants to prevent structural deformation of the conductor and dielectric insulation.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Route the cable along approved cable trays or conduits, strictly adhering to the specified minimum bending radii of 50 mm or 100 mm depending on the cable variant.
- Secure N type, BNC connectors, or M4 screw terminals firmly to prevent loosening caused by industrial vibration.
- Ensure all installation practices comply with the CSA Non-Incendive /NL rating requirements if deployed in hazardous area environments.
