High-temperature resistant silicone cable HELUTHERM SiHF 16G2,5 mm² brick red, conductor identification acc. to DIN VDE 0293-308 23142

High-temperature silicone cable – reliability in extreme conditions

This 16-core HELUTHERM SiHF cable, with a cross-section of 2.5 mm², is the ideal solution where standard cables fail. Designed to operate in an extended temperature range – from -60°C to +180°C (short-term up to +220°C) – it will perform well in demanding industrial applications. Its construction and materials guarantee safety and long-term operation even in the most extreme conditions. The cable is particularly recommended for applications where resistance to high temperatures, flexibility and the absence of toxic gas emissions in the event of a fire are required.

Construction and properties

The HELUTHERM SiHF cable is distinguished by its careful construction, ensuring optimal electrical and mechanical parameters. It consists of 16 flexible copper cores twisted together, insulated with special silicone rubber. The cores are colored according to DIN VDE 0293-308, which facilitates the identification of individual wires. The whole is surrounded by a durable brick-red silicone coating. Additionally, the cable is characterized by the absence of halogen in its composition, which increases safety in the event of a fire – during combustion it emits only SiO₂ (silicon dioxide).

Applications and benefits

This cable finds wide application in industry, where extreme thermal conditions prevail. It is ideal for:

• Power plants
• Steelworks and foundries
• Shipbuilding industry
• Cement plants
• Other industrial facilities exposed to high temperatures

Thanks to its properties, this cable offers:

• Exceptional thermal resistance: Safe operation in a temperature range from -60°C to +180°C (short-term up to +220°C).
• Flexibility: Enables easy installation and routing of cables even in tight spaces.
• Safety: The absence of halogen ensures minimal risk of toxic gas emissions during a fire.
• Chemical resistance: Resistance to oils, vegetable and animal fats, alcohols and other chemicals.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0250 part 1 and DIN VDE 0285-525-2-83 / DIN EN 50525-2-83.
• Durability: Tinned copper cores provide good conductivity and corrosion resistance.

The HELUTHERM SiHF cable is an investment in the reliability and safety of electrical installations in demanding industrial conditions. Its technical parameters and construction guarantee long-term and trouble-free operation.
