Flexible Cables

PVC SINGLE CORE & MULTICORE FLEXIBLE CABLES Application These single core flexible cables are used for wiring in control panels, machines and various electrical installations in small, medium and large industries. Features Manufactured from bright-annealed 99.97% pure bare copper conductors, these cables have low conductor resistance. These wires are insulated with a special grade PVC compound formulated and manufactured in-house which is impervious to water, oil, grease, acids, etc. and are tough to protect from any mechanical abuses. These wires conforms to IS 694 : 1990 Recently Finolex has launched Rodent repellant multicore flexible cables.

Winding Wires & 3 Core Flat Cables

PVC insulated Winding Wires for Submersible Pump Motors Application PVC insulated winding wires are used as original equipment for winding of submersible pump motors. They are also used for rewinding of these motors. The special purpose PVC insulation enables these wires to operate under water over long periods. The minimum insulation thickness is achieved through precision extrusion process so that insertion in stator slots is smooth and easy. Finolex has also developed higher sizes with multi strand copper conductors for higher HP Pump motors for specialized applications such as de-watering, mining and naval pumps.

Features The conductor is solid/stranded and is manufactured from brightannealed 99.97% pure bare copper which offers low conductor resistance. These wires are insulated with a special tough grade PVC compound formulated and manufactured in-house which is impervious to water, oil, grease, acids etc. These wires are extruded on state of the art machines for concentric insulation. Each coil is put through quality checks and water immersion test for trouble free marathon performance. These wires conform to IS 8783 (Part 4 / Sec 1) : 1995 and have lower overall diameter.

Cont
Thin Wall Polymer Insulated Winding Wires for Submersible Pump Motors Application These winding wires have very thin insulation thickness which makes them useful in smaller submersible pumps such as V4 pumps. The old pumps are to be rewound the stator slots get smaller and they require thinner winding wires. Features Made from bright-annealed 99.97% pure bare copper conductors these wires have low conductor resistance and hence high flux capacity. The thin insulation thickness is achieved through precision extrusion of specially developed and manufactured polymeric compound. Each coil is put through quality checks and water immersion test for trouble free marathon performance.

3 Core Flat Cables Application The PVC insulated and sheathed 3 core flat cables are used for giving electrical connection to the submersible pump motors. These are manufactured keeping in mind the severe, tough and difficult conditions in which they have to operate. The slot available in the tube well being narrow the shape of the cables has to be suited for such an application. These cables conform to and are marked IS 694: 1990 up to 4.0 sq. mm. The sizes above 4.0 sq.mm. cables generally conform to IS 694 : 1990. Features Manufactured from bright-annealed 99.97% pure bare copper conductors these cables have low conductor resistance. The inner cores are insulated with a special grade PVC compound formulated and manufactured in-house. The tough robust outer PVC jacket protects it from the oils, greases, various chemicals and abrasions, thereby giving long life and electrical safety.

3 Core Flat Cables (XLPE)

Application The XLPE insulated and PVC sheathed 3 core flat cables are used for giving electrical connection to the submersible pump motors. These are manufactured keeping in mind the severe, tough and difficult conditions in which they have to operate. The slot available in the tube well being narrow the shape of the cables has to be suited for such an application. These cables are available in different sizes. Features Manufactured from bright-annealed 99.97% pure bare copper conductors these cables have low conductor resistance. The inner cores are insulated with a special grade XLPE compound. The tough robust outer HR PVC jacket protects it from the oils, greases, various chemicals and abrasions, thereby giving long life and electrical safe

Battery Cables
