Benefits

• Longer durability in harsh applications than conventional silicone cables
• Notch and tear-resistant outer sheath material reduces mechanical damage
• Copper braiding screens the cable against
  electromagnetic interference
• Flexibility simplifies installation where space is limited
• Due to the use of special additives in EWKF silicone, armoured cable versions will not be required

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

Product Make-up

• Fine-wire, tinned-copper conductor
• Cores twisted together
• Silicone-based core insulation
• Silicone-based inner sheath
• Tinned-copper screen braiding,
  interleaved plastic foil wrapping
• Outer sheath: silicone-based EWKF, notch-resistant, black
