CU Compressed 2.4kV EPR Insulation LSZH-TS Jacket. MV 90
Type MV-90 Single Conductor Copper, Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) Thermoset SOLONON® Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH-TS) Jacket. Silicone Free
Construction:
- Conductor:Class B compressed stranded bare copper per ASTM B3 and ASTM B8 (Tinned Copper per ASTM B33 optional)
- Conductor Shield:Semi-conducting cross-linked copolymer
- Insulation:Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR)
- Overall Jacket:Thermoset SOLONON® Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH-TS)
Applications and Features:
Southwire’s 2.4KV cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation, 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. Rated at -25°C for cold bend. Rated for 1000 lbs./FT maximum sidewall pressure. Silicone Free.
