Application & Features

Southwire 2000V No Lead NL-EPR/SOLONON Traction Power Cable is suited for use in mass transit and general industry applications where flexibility, fire resistance, and low smoke generation are a concern. May be installed in wet or dry locations in cable trays or raceways. These cables are capable of operating continuously at a conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation, 130°C for emergency overload conditions, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. Resistance to moisture and most oils, acids, and alkalis with an overall durable LSZH XLPO jacket. Meets Flame Spread and Smoke Release requirements of NFPA 130. Rated for 1000 lbs./FT maximum sidewall pressure. Alternate constructions available upon request.
