The new TPE conductor compound from Kabel Sterner GmbH offers significant advantages over other plastic compounds in the specified temperature range.
Premium Properties:
-
Cost-effective alternative to cross-linked conductors and conductors with fluoropolymers
-
Minimal space requirement due to extremely thin wall thicknesses:
0.2 mm (8 mils) -
cUR approval for TPE
-
Temperature range -40°C to +120°C / CSA +125°C
-
Voltage classes: 300V, 600V and 1,000V
Additional Properties:
-
Excellent aging properties: Decrease in tensile strength and elongation at 158°C/7d: < 25%
-
Suitable for internal wiring, e.g. in control cabinets, “Internal Wiring”
-
Temperature class C according to ISO 6722 (-40°C to +125°C)
-
Meets ISO 6722 “needle abrasion” depending on cross-section
-
Flame retardant according to UL 1581 / CSA C22.2 No. 210 through halogenated component: Horizontal flame test FT2
-
Very good chemical resistance
-
Free from paint wetting inhibiting properties (LABS-free)
-
No cross-linking, therefore recyclable
Application:
-
As conductors in temperature-resistant cables
-
Conductors for internal wiring, e.g. in control cabinets
-
Also where mechanical stress is present
-
Excellently suited for dynamic applications due to good bending and flexing behavior
-
Automotive applications of temperature class C according to ISO 6722 (-40°C to +125°C)
Complies with standards:
-
UL Standard AWM (Appliance Wire Material) Styles 11958, 11959 and 11960 (all +120°C or +125°C), Styles 11150 (+105°C, 300V) or 11856 (+105°C, 1,000V), 30AWG to 6AWG (0.05 mm² to 16 mm²),
all Styles also for “Internal Wiring” -
Canadian Standard – CSA C22.2 No. 210
for “mechanical abuse”
-
Automotive cables FLR31Y / T125 with reduced wall thickness
-
ATEX-compliant, but depending on design structure
-
Compliant with Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU
-
RoHS, REACH and China REACH compliance
