High temperature resistant silicone cable HELUTHERM SiHF 5G4 mm² brick red, core identification acc. to DIN VDE 0293-308 23037

High-temperature silicone cable – reliability in extreme conditions

This 5-core HELUTHERM SiHF cable with a cross-section of 4 mm² is an advanced solution for applications requiring resistance to extreme temperatures and flexibility. The cable is designed for demanding industrial environments where standard cabling fails. Its construction based on special silicone ensures reliable operation over a wide temperature range, from -60°C to +180°C, and briefly up to +220°C.

Construction and properties

The HELUTHERM SiHF cable is distinguished by its careful construction, guaranteeing long-lasting and safe operation. It consists of multi-strand, twisted copper conductors, covered with high-quality silicone rubber insulation. The cores are color-coded according to DIN VDE 0293-308 (up to 5 cores), which facilitates identification and improves installation safety. The whole is surrounded by a special, silicone outer jacket in brick red, providing additional protection against external factors. The cable is halogen-free, which increases fire safety and minimizes the emission of toxic substances in the event of a fire.

Applications and benefits

The HELUTHERM SiHF cable finds wide application in many industries:

• Metallurgical and foundry industry: ideal for working near high temperatures and exposed to contact with molten metals.
• Glass and ceramics industry: resistant to high temperatures and aggressive chemicals used in production processes.
• Cement plants: resistant to abrasion and the action of cement dust.
• Shipbuilding industry: resistant to moisture, salt water, and oils and greases.
• Power plants: provides reliable connections in critical energy systems.
• Industrial lighting: ideal for connecting lighting devices operating in difficult conditions.

Thanks to its properties, this cable is also an excellent choice for aerospace applications and anywhere requiring high flexibility, thermal and chemical resistance, and safety. Additionally, its halogen-free construction meets stringent fire safety standards. The cable is characterized by good chemical resistance to oils, vegetable and animal fats, and other chemicals. It has a rated voltage U/Uo 300/500 V and a test voltage of 2000 V AC. The minimum insulation resistance is 20 MOhm x km.
