ÖLFLEX® HEAT 180 EWKF
Silicone cables with increased mechanical characteristics
ÖLFLEX® HEAT 180 EWKF - silicone power and control cable, tear and notch resistant, for use in machines, plant construction and toolbuilding, suitable for +180°C
- Proven notch-resistant EWKF quality
- Further dimensions/colours on request
- CPR: Article number choice under www.lappkabel.com/cpr
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 SiO2 ash on the conductor
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
Product features
- EWKF:
Initial tear propagation and notch resistance - Halogen-free (IEC 60754-1), no corrosive gases (IEC 60754-2), 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
