Silicone cable, high temperature resistant acc. to UL/CSA SiHF UL/CSA 4G1.5mm² black, conductor identification acc. to DIN VDE 0293-308 23240

Silicone cable for extreme temperatures

This black, multi-strand silicone cable is designed to operate in demanding conditions where standard cables fail. It is characterized by exceptional resistance to high and low temperatures, making it an ideal choice for industrial, energy and aerospace applications. The cable meets UL/CSA standards, guaranteeing safety and reliability.

Construction and properties

The cable is made of tinned copper strands (class 5 or 6 depending on the standard), insulated with silicone. The strands are twisted longitudinally, and in versions with three or more strands, a yellow-green protective strand is present. The whole is surrounded by a durable, black silicone coating. This construction provides not only flexibility and ease of installation, but also resistance to a wide range of external factors.

The cable retains its properties in the temperature range from -60°C to +180°C (short-term up to +220°C), which is crucial in applications exposed to extreme temperature changes. Additionally, it is resistant to UV radiation, oils, greases, acids, alkalis and weather conditions. It is a halogen-free cable, which increases safety in the event of a fire – during combustion it leaves only a layer of SiO2. It meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0482-332-1-2, DIN EN 60332-1-2 and IEC 60332-1 (equivalent to DIN VDE 0472 part 804 test method B) and CSA FT1 – does not spread flames.

Applications and benefits

The cable finds application in many industries:

• Energy: Power plants, high-temperature installations.
• Industry: Steelworks, metallurgy, aerospace and shipbuilding, ceramics and glass production, and cement plants.
• Automation: As a flexible connection cable in devices operating in difficult conditions.
• Specialist installations: Where high thermal and chemical resistance is required.

Thanks to its properties, this cable provides:

• Safety: Compliance with UL/CSA standards and halogen-free materials minimize the risk of fire and emission of toxic gases.
• Reliability: Resistance to extreme temperatures and chemicals guarantees long-term operation without failure.
• Flexibility: Facilitates installation and connection even in tight spaces.
• Durability: High quality materials ensure a long service life of the cable.
