Cable Construction
Conductor : Annealed tinned copper to IS:10241 Part 3, uniformly bunched to form a circular shape
Insulation : Special core insulation HR-PVC 105° C
Primary Braid : Braided with glass fiber, 100% coverage
Secondary Braid : Braided with nylon fiber, 100% coverage
Lacquer : Overall construction is finally lacquered with nylon varnish
Properties
Max. Operating Voltage : 600V r.m.s.
Operating Temperature Range : -35°C to 105°C
Resistant to ester based fluids (hydraulic oil), acids, chemicals and solvents. The nylon and glass fibers are very good heat resistant materials.
