Olflex VFD Symmetrical Drive Cable – For Large HP VFD Drives
Olflex® VFD Symmetrical Drive Cable is a large AWG VFD (variable frequency drive) cable constructed with three symmetrical grounds and longitudinal copper tape shield. A VFD is combined to motor driven systems to be able to save energy. When you connect the motor-driven system to the VFD, you are now allowed to control the speed by altering the frequency of the motor supply voltage. The construction of this VFD drive cable is 3 power + symmetrical grounds. Conductors are designed with finely stranded tinned copper with black number conductors and green or yellow ground wire. It is also constructed with a longitudinal copper tape shield.
This symmetrical drive cable has a minimum bend radius of 15 x cable diameter for flexible use. Its temperature range is from -20°C to +90°C and a nominal voltage of 600V while the conductor stranding is Class B. It passed approvals such as UL Type TC-ER, UL Standard 1277 and 44, IEEE 1202 (70,000 BTU/HR) flame test and CSA: c (UL) CIC/TC FT4
This cable is sunlight resistant and it is also ideal for direct burial cable applications. It also conforms to CE low voltage directive. This cable is available from 1 awg through 500 MCM for 75 HP and larger VFD drives. Most versions of this cable are constructed with a foil tape and tinned copper shield with jacket insulation which could either be PVC, Elastomer Alloy or TPE. The copper tape shield is used to 100% protect against RFI and EMI interference.
