Application

VFD Symmetrical XLPE TR is a flexible shielded motor supply cable designed for adjustable speed drives and servo systems. The cable is designed with 3 phase leads and 3 symmetrical tinned copper grounds. The phase cores are insulated with a thicker cross linked insulation providing better heat resistance, low capacitance and better protection against corona discharge. The symmetrical placement of the 3 phase leads and 3 earth grounds insures proper grounding paths and minimizes the risk of motor failure from common mode current. VFD Symmetrical XLPE TR is UL TC-ER, 600V, UL WTTC, Flexible Motor Supply Cable 1000V,c(UL) CIC/TC, & UL/CSA AWM approved up to 1000V. It is 100% shielded with both an AMA foil and braided shield making this cable resistant to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from voltage spikes, harmonics, and power distortions frequently associated with variable frequency drives. This cable can be used both indoors and outdoors within or without conduit (exposed run) up to any length. The unique flame retardant jacket makes the VFD Symmetrical XLPE TR approved for both cable tray (TC) applications as well as control and instrumentation applications. VFD Symmetrical XLPE TR is suitable for installations in wet or dry locations, is UV- and oil- resistant, and is rated for direct burial. VFD Symmetrical XLPE TR is permitted to be used in hazardous (classified) locations Class I, Division 2 per NEC Article 501.4 (B), and is UL Type WTTC in acc. to UL standard 2277. It is built with a special sunlight and oil-resistant copolymer jacket for durability and resistance in harsh conditions. Its design streamlines installation and contributes to safe, efficient operations across industries.
