Details

Cable Structure

      • Copper wire tinned, finely stranded acc. to DIN VDE 0295 Class 5 / IEC 60228 Class 5
      • Core insulation: silicone
      • Core identification acc. to DIN VDE 0293-308,
      • 2 - 5 core(s): colour coded
      • 6 - 41 core(s): black cores with consecutive labeling in white digits
      • Protective conductor: starting with 3 cores,
      • G = with protective conductor GN-YE, in the outer layer,
      • x = without protective conductor
      • Cores stranded in layers with optimal lay lengths
      • Outer sheath: silicone
      • Sheath colour: black

Properties

      • resistant to: ozone, oxygen, weathering effects, alcohols, dilute acids, alkalis, saline solutions, oxidising agents, high molecular weight oils, vegetable and animal fats, plasticisers and clophen, seawater
      • halogen-free
      • high flash point
      • leaves an insulating layer of SiO2 when exposed to flames
      • no significant changes in dielectric strength and insulation resistance even at higher temperatures

Tests

      • halogen-free acc. to DIN VDE 0482-754-1 / DIN EN 60754-1 / IEC 60754-1
      • corrosiveness of combustion gases acc. to DIN VDE 0482-754-2 / DIN EN 60754-2 / IEC 60754-2
      • flame-retardant acc. to DIN VDE 0482-332-1-2 / DIN EN 60332-1-2 / IEC 60332-1-2, CSA FT1
      • certifications and approvals:
      • EAC

Notes

      • the conductor is metrically (mm²) constructed, AWG numbers are approximated, and are for reference only
      • for fixed installation, always install in open, ventilated pipe or duct systems; otherwise, a combination of high temperatures above 90°C and the absence of air would affect the mechanical properties of silicone

Application

      • UL-/CSA-approved silicone cable, developed for export-oriented machine builders, particularly for USA and Canada. Silicone cables are halogen-free and are especially suited for installation in power stations, iron, steel and rolling mills, in solariums, sauna facilities, foundries, in the aviation industry, ship building, in ceramic, glass and cement factories as well as in high-power luminaires and heating devices. Due to the elastic properties of the core insulation, this silicone cable is ideally suitable as a flexible connection cable.
