EXRAD® ERGOFLEX 125 ISO 19642-3 Class C Thin-Wall High-Flex Door Wire
EXRAD® ERGO FLEX 125 is a high-flex door and hatch wire designed specifically for flexibility and long flex life at low temperatures. The temperature performance range of EXRAD ERGO FLEX is –70°C to +125°C. EXRAD ERGO FLEX provides up to 9 times more flexing than conventional wire.EXRAD® HVFX ISO Thin-Wall Shielded Battery Cable
EXRAD® HVFX ISO 6722-1 shielded thin-wall battery cable is the next generation flexible high performance cross-linked insulation designed specifically to handle automotive and commercial vehicle high voltage and HVIL systems.EXRAD® Automotive SJOOW Cables
EXRAD® automotive SJOOW cables are dual-rated to UL / CSA and also ISO-6722-1 Class D standards. The cables are rated -50°C to +150°C; are oil, water and UV resistant; and are very flexible for routing around engine compartments and other confined areas of a vehicle.
Case Study
Next-Generation Flexible Battery Cable for EV/HEV Systems
When vehicle manufacturers needed a high-voltage battery cable that combined exceptional flexibility with thermal robustness and reliable termination, Champlain Cable engineered EXRAD® ERGOFLEX—an irradiation cross-linked XLPO solution designed to meet ISO 19642 requirements without a paper separator.
High-temperature EXRAD® ERGOFLEX insulation engineered for demanding EV/HEV battery systems.
Developed to meet ISO 19642 requirements for high-voltage automotive battery cable.
Engineered for clean, consistent stripping and termination without the paper separator used in many EPDM constructions.
EXRAD® ERGOFLEX demonstrated greater flexibility than the prior EPDM construction while also being smaller and lighter.
