RS PRO Red 1.5 mm² Hook Up Wire, 1, 25m, Silicone Rubber Insulation

RS PRO Harsh Environment Wire

Introducing the RS PRO harsh environment cable, ideal for use across a wide variety of electrical power, lighting and internal wire testing applications even in high temperatures. The flexible harsh environment wire can be used for reliable cable connections to digital multimeters to ensure an accurate reading. By using this RS PRO high-quality range of single-core harsh environment cables, the installation wires can be easily colour coded by using the different sheath colours available in the range, dependant on the installation terminals being used. In addition to this, the robust and carefully manufactured tinned copper conductor ensures optimum reliability and performance, regardless of the application the wires are being used for. The silicone insulation with glass fibre braided wire provides brilliant thermal stability meaning it can maintain a great electrical performance in high and low temperatures which means that it can hook up to electronics even in the harshest environments. The silicone insulation is excellent in high temperatures, even withstanding contact with a soldering iron, and can be draped over a hot manifold without sustaining damage.

Features and Benefits

• The insulation material is silicone which provides high performance in harsh environments


• Due to the glass fibre braiding these wires are an excellent choice for harsher applications


• Flexible wire means it is ideal to use in various applications


• Voltage Rating: 500 V


• Conductor: 30 strands of very fine copper


• Temperature range of -60°C to +200 °C


• Ideal for use with high currents

Applications

Defined by its name, harsh environment wire is cable suitable for less than friendly environments. Typically used as hook up wire, each reel performs to an optimum level within harsher areas. High temperature can be a massive threat in terms of electronics, causing all kinds of health and safety risks. These RS PRO cables provide excellent resistance to such problems. Any electronic devices situated within harsh environments would benefit from this type of wire. Laboratories would be a good example, as they are areas which could have toxic and potentially damaging gasses that interfere with wires. As example, some areas using these cables would be:
Construction sites
Car engines
Aeroplanes
Petrol stations
