Silicone cable OLFLEX HEAT 180 SiHF 2x1.5 0046013

Highly durable silicone cable for extreme conditions.

The OLFLEX HEAT 180 SiHF cable is a high-temperature silicone cable designed for use in demanding industrial environments. It is characterized by exceptional resistance to high temperatures – up to +180°C – making it an ideal solution where traditional cables fail. Its flexibility makes installation easier even in tight spaces, and the construction ensures long-lasting and reliable operation.

Construction and properties

The OLFLEX HEAT 180 SiHF cable is made of high-quality materials, ensuring its durability and safety. The copper strands are multi-stranded and tinned, which increases their corrosion resistance. Silicone insulation provides excellent dielectric properties and resistance to chemicals and oils. The round cable shape and the outer silicone rubber (SIR) jacket guarantee flexibility and ease of assembly. Because it leaves SiO2 ash after combustion, it retains its insulating properties, increasing safety.

Applications and benefits

This versatile cable finds applications in many industries:

• Metallurgical industry: steel, ceramic and iron furnaces.
• Food industry: bakery equipment and industrial furnaces.
• Automotive: electric motor industry.
• Saunas and solariums: electrical installations in recreational facilities.
• Heating: heating elements and thermal systems.
• Lighting: lighting installations exposed to high temperatures.
• Ventilation and air conditioning: ventilation and air conditioning systems.
• Galvanizing: galvanizing processes requiring resistance to chemicals.

Additionally:

• The cable is resistant to many oils, alcohols, vegetable and animal fats, and chemicals.
• It has self-extinguishing properties (IEC 60332-1-2) and does not emit toxic gases during combustion (IEC 60754-1, IEC 60754-2).
• A wide operating temperature range (-50°C to +180°C) allows it to be used in extreme conditions.
• Minimum bending radius (30.4 mm for fixed installations and 114 mm for flexible installations) makes it easy to route the cable in tight spaces.
• Rated voltage 500V/300V ensures safe operation in most industrial applications.
