Description
ÖLFLEX® HEAT 180 EWKF High Temperature Cables
Proven notch resistant EWKF quality
Expanded ambient temperatures | Silicone cables (-50°C to +180°C)
Application range areas with high ambient temperatures and occasionally mechanical stress.
Typical Fields of Application
- Steel, ceramic and iron works
- Bakery equipment and industrial furnaces
- Electric Motor Industry
- Sauna/solarium construction
- Thermal and heating elements
- Lighting Technology
- Ventilator engineering
- Air Conditioning technology
- Galvanisation technology
Benefits
Longer durability in harsh applications than conventional silicone cables | Notch and tear-resistant silicone compounds reduce damage due to mechanical stress | Due to the use of special additives in EWKF silicone, armoured cable versions will not be required | Flexibility simplifies installation where space is limited | Possesses insulating properties after combustion due to remaining SiO ash on the conductor
Key
EWKF Initial tear propagation and notch resistance | Halogen free (IEC 60754-1), no corrosive gases (IEC60754-2), flame retardant (IEC 60332-1-2) | Good hydrolysis and UV-resistance | Resistant to a multitude of oils, alcohols, vegetable and animal fats and chemical substances | Adequate ventilation must be ensured, since the mechanical properties of silicone cables decrease from +100°C in the absence of air
