Application
A flexible, braid and foil shielded, 2kV power
cable specifically engineered for use in variable
frequency AC motor drive (VFD) applications.

Features
n Specially engineered cable design produces
a longer cable life in VFD applications.
n Overall braid plus foil shield is engineered
   with 100% coverage and a surface transfer
   impedance <50 milliohms="" at="" 10mhz="">
   contain EMI.
n Symmetrical insulated ground conductors
   reduce induced voltage imbalances and carry
   common mode noise back to the drive.
n High strand count conductors and braid
   shield design is much more flexible, easier
   to install and more resistant to vibration
   than Type MC cable.
n Gexol’s lower dielectric constant (standard
   XLPEs, EPRs and other Type P insulation
   materials have higher dielectric constants)
   reduces reflected wave peak voltage
   magnitudes. This allows for longer output
   cable distances and minimizes the effect
   of high frequency noise induced into the
   plant ground system.
n 2kV insulation thickness is used to resist the
   potential 2-3x reflected voltages experienced
   in 600V VFD applications.
n Passes the same stringent crush and impact
   testing required by UL 2225 for Type MC-HL
n Gas & vapor tight – impervious to water
   and air
n Smaller bend radius (up to 40% smaller)
   than Type MC
n Reduced tray fill (up to 35% less) compared
   to Type MC
n Considerably more flexible than Type MC
n Reduced installation time and cost compared
    to Type MC
n Glands for this product cost up to 50% LESS
   than those for Type MC
