Silicoul is a high quality grade of silicone coated cable made from a flexible tinned copper core, separating tape, silicone rubber and a special synthetic reinforcing braid as a final coat. The reliability, cost effectiveness and general versatility of these cables has led them to be adopted as the industry standard for wiring a variety of different machines and applications. Silicoul 1.1kV Silicone Coated Cable is yellow in colour and withstands continuous operating temperatures between -60ºC and 180ºC (as well as short-term peaks up to 230ºC). It exhibits good flexibility and is easy to work with. Silicoul 1.1kV Cable Characteristics Excellent mechanical strength Good resistance to Ozone and Corona Bending radius 5 x d. Compatible with most impregnation varnishes Excellent ageing resistance Good resistance to thermal shock and UV Withstands continuous temperatures between -60ºC and 180ºC Withstands short-term exposure up to 230ºC Working voltage: 1.1kV Yellow in colour Approvals and Standards Silicoul 1.1kV Silicone Coated Cable carries the following approvals: F1 rated as per NF F 16-101 Type approval certificates for use in shipbuilding industry , IEC 60092-350 standards.
