Our Habiatron nuclear cable solutions can significantly extend the lifetime of the cables you buy from us, giving you
value for money and the confidence that you can rely on our cables to do their work.

Nuclear cable types
Our range of Habiatron custom design and hybrid cables have been developed following considerable research and development
into the unique needs associated with nuclear environments and naturally incorporate all the elements you would expect from
Habia Cable: quality, reliability, consistency and efficiency.
As a leading manufacturer of special wires and cables, Habia Cable is active in many nuclear programs around the world. We are
also able to meet specific customer requirements by incorporating various power and signal wires into hybrid cables.
We can also offer custom-designed solutions which are engineered to meet the most demanding nuclear applications.
　

Habiatron C
Available in CQ (Q class) and CR (R class) types, Habia Cable’s safety cable range is also able to extend to coaxial cables,
qualified according to IEEE 383-1974 for 40 years at up to 90oC.
　

Habiatron M
The ingoing cores to our Q class cables.
　

Habiatron MM
Manufactured in conjuction with Ultra Electronics, Habiatron MM cables are used in systems that require high immunity from the
surrounding environment along with high radiation and temperature resistance. Performance is guaranteed by using opt imi sed
braids, high permitivity magnetic tapes and anti-microphonic coatings.
　

Habiatron Q
The new generation of extended life LOCA approved cables with HFI 260 insulation and HFS 105 XL B sheathing offers an actual
lifetime in a nuclear environment when considering the measured activation energy is 60 years at insulation temperature up to
90oC an jacket temperature 70oC.
Designed for use in Class 1E safety systems such as primary pumps, safety valves, volume controls and emergency shut-down
systems (where the cable must continue operation).
The Habiatron Q cable concept is independently qualified according to IEEE 383-2003 for an operational life of 60 years operation
at up to 90oC with a jacket operating temperature of 70oC.
　

Habiatron R
Safety cables used for monitoring safety related functions within the power plant. Mainly used within containment areas where
they offer a high level of performance, coupled with excellent smoke generation and flame retardant properties. Habiatron R is
qualified for a lifetime of 60 years at 90oC conductor temperature and 70oC jacket temperature.
