Thin Walled Flexible Electron Beam Irradiated Elastomeric Cables (ELRS/SPEC/ELC/0019 REV-4)

Electron beam irradiated thin walled flexible elastomeric cables with copper conductor, limited fire hazard, minimum flame spread, low smoke emission & limited toxic fumes emission.

Application

They are designed for fixed, protected internal use in power, auxiliary as well as control circuit of conventional tap changer electric locomotives, AC/DC EMU & BG AC EMU & MEMU / Coaching Stock.

They offer robust resistance to oil, fuel, ozone and temperature extremes. Critically, their construction ensures superior fire performance meeting ELRS / ELC / SPEC / 0019 requirements along with EN 45545-2 HL3

Advantages
