Silicone cable, resistant to high temperatures acc. to UL/CSA SiHF UL/CSA 5G4mm² black, conductor identification acc. to DIN VDE 0293-308 23268

Silicone cable for extreme conditions

This 5-core silicone cable, with a cross-section of 4 mm², is designed to operate in demanding environments where standard cabling fails. It is characterized by exceptional resistance to high and low temperatures, making it an ideal choice for industrial and specialized applications. The cable meets UL/CSA standards, guaranteeing safety and reliability.

Construction and properties

The cable is made of multi-strand copper conductors (class 5), providing flexibility and ease of installation. The insulation of the cores and the outer jacket are made of silicone, ensuring temperature resistance in the range of -60°C to +180°C (short-term up to +220°C). The cores are twisted longitudinally, and the protective conductor (yellow-green) is present from 3 cores upwards. Core identification is carried out in accordance with DIN VDE 0293-308 – black or colored cores with white numbering. The cable is halogen-free, which increases safety in the event of a fire and minimizes the emission of toxic substances.

Applications and benefits

The cable finds application in a wide range of industries, including:

• Power plants: Due to its high thermal resistance and halogen-free properties.
• Steel, aerospace and shipbuilding industries: In places exposed to extreme temperatures and difficult operating conditions.
• Ceramics, glass and cement plants: Where high temperatures and an aggressive chemical environment prevail.
• Flexible connections: Thanks to the high flexibility of the silicone insulation.

Additional advantages:

• Chemical resistance: To oils, greases, alcohols, acids, alkalis and oxidizing agents.
• Radiation resistance: Up to 20x10⁶ cJ/kg (up to 20 Mrad).
• Good dielectric properties: Ensuring safe operation at high voltages (300/500 V VDE, 600 V UL/CSA).
• Low smoke and toxicity: In the event of a fire, it leaves only a SiO₂ coating.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0482 part 267/DIN EN 50267-2-1/IEC 60754-1 and DIN VDE 0482-332-1-2 / DIN EN 60332-1-2 / IEC 60332-1 / CSA FT1 – confirming its safety and quality.
