Special silicone multicore cable with higher heat-resistance range adapted to DIN VDE 0250 part 1 and part 816
Application
- Silicone cables were evolved for use wherever insulation is subjected to extreme temperature changes.
- They are heat-resistant for permanent temperature up to +180 °C, for short time operation up to +220 °C.
- The good performance of the environmental resistant properties means that silicone cables can be used at temperatures down to -60 °C.
- Silicone cables are halogen-free cables and are especially suited for installation in power stations.
- They have also found their uses in the steel producing industries, aviation industry, ship building as well as in ceramic, glass and cement factories.
Advantages
Hardly changes of dielectric strength and the insulation resistance also at high temperatures, high ignition or flash point in case of fire, forms an insulating layer of SiO2.
Halogen-free
According to VDE 0482 part 267/ DIN EN 50267-2-2/ IEC 60754-2 (equivalent DIN VDE 0472 part 813)
Behaviour in fire
- No flame propagation test according to DIN VDE 0482 part 265-2-1/ EN 50265-2-1/ IEC 60332-1 (equivalent DIN VDE 0472 part 804 test method B)
- For laying as a fixed installation only in open or ventilated pipe systems as well as in ducts. Otherwise the mechanical properties of the silicon are reduced by the enclosed air at temperatures exceeding 90 °C
