Oil-resistant cables can make a difference in installation performance in industrial environments. Oils often serve a dual-purpose role in industrial applications, as a coolant and a lubricant. In harsh environments, factories such as chemical processing plants, oil and gas industries, etc., cables used to interconnect parts of their machines are often exposed to oil and chemicals due to leakage from their manufacturing process. If the installed cables are not oil (and chemical) Resistant, they may break, swell and melt, causing failure in electrical power transmission, with resulting productivity losses. H07VV5-F oil resistant cables are the best choice in these tough environments.
What happens when non-oil resistant cables are exposed to oil and chemicals?
When exposed to oil and chemical environments, a non-oil-resistant cable will begin to deteriorate; The overall outer sheath will swell, melt and/or melt, creating a potentially hazardous condition, causing failure of electrical power transmission and increasing the possibility of short circuit or fire in the production plant.
For these reasons, the oil resistance of cables has become a critical performance parameter when electrical contractors, engineers and installers specify cables for production plant application designs. H05VV5-F oil-resistant and chemical-resistant cables ensure the best electrical performance and safety in these harsh industrial production environments, reducing downtime and costly machinery.
