EXRAD® HVFX ISO Thin-Wall Shielded Battery Cable

    Product features:
  • ISO 6722-1 Class D
  • 600/1000V
  • Enhanced Flexibility

EXRAD® HVFX ISO 6722-1 thin-wall shielded battery cable is the next generation of high performance cross-linked insulation designed specifically to handle the higher voltage and electrical currents required by today’s hybrid and electric vehicles and HVIL systems.  Our thin wall and high temperature insulations allow for lower weight and less space. Champlain Cable offers UV resistance unlike most cross-linked polyolefins.

EXRAD HVFX shielded battery cables have an irradiated cross-linked polyolefin insulation able to withstand temperatures of 240°C and higher. The EXRAD high flex conductor and flexible insulation are designed to be thinner and lighter. It is extremely flexible for easy routing in the tight confined areas of the car platform, yet tough enough to withstand the roughest environments. EXRAD HVFX can be routed through twists and turns where other cables can not.  Save money and reduce weight by shortening the cable length.  This product is also ideal for HVIL (High Voltage Interlock Loop) systems in single or multi-conductor configurations.

The end result is the EXRAD HVFX product is ideally suited to applications, especially conventional, hybrid and electric vehicles where a combination of flexibility, long life and performance is required. ROHS and CE Compliant.
