Description
Key Features:
Triple-Layer Construction:
The RCS-TRT Tubing features a unique triple-layer design, combining semi-conductive, insulating, and elastomeric layers. This provides comprehensive protection against electrical faults, ensuring optimal performance and durability in demanding conditions.
Co-Extruded Design:
Manufactured using a co-extrusion process, the tubing ensures consistent quality and precision across all layers, delivering reliable performance and longevity in medium voltage cable systems.
Heavy Insulation Layer:
The extra heavy insulation layer offers enhanced electrical protection, effectively isolating cables and preventing electrical faults. This robust construction also provides mechanical strength, ensuring long-term reliability.
Shrink Ratio 3:1:
With a 3:1 shrink ratio, the RCS-TRT Tubing is compatible with a wide range of cable sizes, reducing inventory complexity and simplifying installation processes.
High-Temperature Recovery:
The tubing fully recovers at a minimum temperature of 130℃, ensuring a tight, secure fit even in extreme temperature conditions. This guarantees both mechanical durability and electrical reliability.
Voltage Rating:
Suitable for medium voltage applications up to 42kV, the RCS-TRT Tubing meets stringent industry standards, providing reliable insulation and protection for critical cable systems.
