Aerospace series - Cable, electrical, for signal transmission - Part 009: Cable, coaxial, light weight, 50 ohms, 180 °C, type KW (light WN) - Product standard; German and English version EN 4604-009:2014
Luft- und Raumfahrt - Elektrische Leitungen für Signalübertragungen - Teil 009: Koaxialkabel, Leichtbauweise, 50 Ohm, 180 °C, Typ KW (WN Leichtbauweise) - Produktnorm; Deutsche und Englische Fassung EN 4604-009:2014
Overview
The standard series EN 4604 describes requirements for electrical cables for signal transmission for use in aircraft electrical systems. This new edition of Part 009 specifies the requirements for a light weight coaxial cable, 50 ohm, type KW for use in aircraft electrical systems at operating temperatures between -55 °C and 180 °C and in particular for high frequencies up to 6 GHz. Nevertheless, if required, -65 °C is also acceptable as shown by rapid change of temperature test. The following modifications with respect to the previous edition DIN EN 4604-009:2011-09 have been made: a) the propagation rate of the electrical characteristics has been increased; b) the power rating test according to EN 3475-813 has been deleted and with it the corresponding reference in Table 3. The standards of the EN 4604 series are prepared by ASD-STAN, Technical Section Electrics, with the participation of German experts of the Aerospace Standards Committee. The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) declared the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD-STAN) responsible for the preparation of European standards (EN) for the field of aerospace. The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 131-04-02 AA "Elektrische Leitungen" ("Electric cables") of the Aerospace Standards Committee at DIN.
