Silicone-insulated cables are used whenexposure to high temperatures and temperature variations would cause conventional PVC-insulated cables to become brittle. Silicone-insulated cables arepreferably used in the metallurgical industry, steel works,hot-rolling mills, cokingplants, foundries,cement works, glassfactories and ceramics plants as well as inthe production of electric motors, in saunaconstruction, in ships and aeroplanes, inheat, refrigeration and airconditioningtechnology,as well as in lighting gear etc.

The insulation consists of silicone rubber It is halogen-free and resistant to vegetable and animal fat, many types of oiand diluted acids. No decomposition occurs when exposed to alcohol, plasticizers, alkaline solutions, saline solutions etcThe insulation is fully tropicalized and resistant to oxygen and ozone. One of its exceptional features is its high flash point Should the cable burn, an insulating silicon dioxide layer will remain on the conductor to render it short circuit proof.
