The Shumee OLFLEX HEAT 180 SiF is a high-performance single-core silicone cable designed for demanding environments where thermal stability is critical. With a cross-section of 0.75 mm², this cable is engineered to maintain its physical and electrical properties even when exposed to significant temperature fluctuations. Its robust construction ensures long-term reliability in professional electrical installations, providing a dependable solution for complex wiring needs.
Advantages
The primary benefit of this silicone cable is its exceptional resistance to high temperatures, allowing it to function reliably in environments where standard PVC cables would degrade. The silicone insulation provides superior flexibility, making it easy to route through tight spaces or complex machinery without the risk of cracking or breaking. Furthermore, the material is halogen-free and resistant to various chemical influences, ensuring safety and durability in industrial settings.
Suitable for
- Heating and cooling equipment
- Lighting systems and luminaires
- Industrial furnace construction
- Sauna and steam room installations
- Control cabinet wiring in high-heat zones
This cable is not intended for applications requiring mechanical protection against sharp edges or heavy impact, as the silicone insulation is relatively soft. It should not be used in environments where it will be subjected to constant abrasion or submerged in aggressive chemicals that are incompatible with silicone materials.
Key specifications
- Cross-section: 0.75 mm²
- Core count: 1
- Insulation material: Silicone
- Temperature resistance: Up to +180°C
- Color: Black
- Packaging: 100-meter coil
To use the Shumee OLFLEX HEAT 180 SiF, ensure that the cable is stripped carefully to avoid damaging the conductor. When installing, maintain appropriate bending radii to preserve the integrity of the silicone insulation. Secure the cable using suitable cable glands or ties, ensuring that it is not under excessive tension during operation.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the current-carrying capacity for your specific application
- Ensure the installation environment is free from sharp mechanical hazards
- Confirm the required length matches the 100-meter coil provided
For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that the cable is installed by a qualified professional and that all connections are properly insulated and secured according to local electrical standards.
