HELUKABEL® introduces XLPE-insulated motor cable for VFDs

HELUKABEL®, one of the world's leading cable manufacturers, has grown its TOPFLEX®product line with the introduction of theTOPFLEX®620 VFD. This flexible-PVC, XLPE-insulated power cable is ideal for applications with high voltage spikes and long cable runs due to its low capacitance.

Built forthe industrial sectorthat requiresthe use of on/off or slow down/speed up VFD motor applications, the special PVC jacket is extremely resistant to oils(Oil ResI & II), coolants and solvents making it suitable for open, exposed runs (TC-ER rated, UV resistant), installation in pipes,or inthe ground(direct burial rated).

In areas where electrical interference may be an issue, the TOPFLEX®620 VFD is double-shielded to provide effective protection against electrical disturbances(noise)and the resultant failures.

The TOPFLEX®620 VFDpower cable is available in a four conductor configuration rangingin sizes from 16–2AWG.

It has been rated for both 600V and 1000V applications,and can operate invarying temperatureenvironmentsfrom -25°C to 105°C, having passedboth the -25°C cold impact and -40°C cold bend tests.

Furthermore, this robust VFD cable can be used in industrial environments such as petroleum refineries, and gasoline storage and dispensing areas, or others listedunderClass 1 Div. 2 perNEC Articles336 & 501. In the event of an explosion or fire the TOPFLEX®620 VFDis self-extinguishing and flame retardant in accordance with CSA FT4 and NFPA 79.

In addition to UL(1277 and 2277 FlexibleMotor SupplyCable)and CSA(AWM I/II A/B),the TOPFLEX®620 VFD isCE approved for machine builders exporting to Europe.For more information please visit You are not allowed to view links.
