Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cable is mainly intended for using in applications where a mechanically tough, flame retardant, lightweight cross linked transit wire is in high demand. Because of the light weight characteristics, it is considered for weight saving solutions among required electrical and electronic applications. What are the superior technical features of Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cable? Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) cables have excellent fluid, oil and moisture resistance. The cables have a high temperature rating of about -65°C to 150°C and a voltage rating of 600V. What sizes of cables are available in Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cable range? Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cables are available in AWG 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 and 30 size ranges. Specifics can be found at http://www.crownindustrial.com/wire-and-cable/rapid-transit/xrs-lkd-etfe.html. How is Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cable constructed? Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) cables are constructed using Tinned copper for conductors. Thin wall cross linked Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (XLETFE) are used for insulating the cable. The cables are tested for temperature extremes with cold bend at -65°C and through thermal aging beyond 150°C. The conductor stranding for the different AWG size ranges are as follows: AWG Size Conductor Stranding 12 37/28 14 19/27 16 19/29 18 19/30 20 19/32 22 19/34 24 19/36 26 19/38 28 7/36 30 7/38 What is the difference between Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) and Cross Linked Polyalkene/ PVDF Transit Wire (Medium Wall) Cables? The main difference between these two above mentioned cables lie in their insulation materials as it is quite obvious in their names itself. Apart from that, Cross Linked Polyalkene/ PVDF Transit Wire (Medium Wall) cable are designed to have Cross-Linked Polyvinylidene Fluoride (XLPVDF) Jacket. These are generally used for applications in which high density cabling and harnessing are required. Can I use the Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cables at extreme temperature conditions? Yes. Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) cables have been designed to survive in extreme temperatures. The temperature rating of the cables have been specified in the range between -65°C to 150°C. Because of its specific light weight properties, it is perfect for a wide range of applications that require temperature stability as well as weight saving solutions. What are the national and international standards to which Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) Cable conform? Cross Linked ETFE Transit Wire (Light Weight) cable conforms to international technical standards of the industry such as Mil Spec: MIL-W-22759/32.
