TE Connectivity – Raychem low voltage cable accessories
Raychem who invented the cross-linking technology more than 60 years ago, then made the first heat-shrinking insulating components, develops continiously the complete low voltage products from these components.
The low voltage cable accessory portfolio contains products for copper and aluminum energy cables that cover your 1 kV connection and end-sealing demands. The design of each heat-shrinking product is optimized so that the entire LV range (1.5 mm² - 240 mm²) is covered by only four kits. This not only results in quick delivery times, but also in a significant decrease in the inventory that you have to hold as a customer. All products meet EN 50393 specification.
Some key product offerings from this portfolio are shown below.
- heat-shrinking joints with shear head bolted connector or without sleeve. They are applicable on plastic or oil-paper insulated cables with or without wire/tape shield and with or without armour.
- heat-shrinking end-sealing cable terminations with or without shear head bolted lugs for plastic or oil-paper insulated cables with or without wire/tape shield and with or without armour.
- under voltage live-end seals for polymeric and paper insulated cables.
- special flame retardant joints or flexible cable joints for rubber cables.
When Tyco Electronics bought Paul Jordan Berlin company in the year 2000, the low voltage cable accessory portfolio extended with a resin filled underground joints family.
The telecommunication division of former Raychem was a pioneer in the gel sealed connections. These technologies appeared in the power cable connections, providing nonheat-shrinkable solutions.
Some key product offerings from this portfolio are shown below.
- resin filled in-line or Y branch joints with compact connector unit or without connector.
- cross-linked PowerGel filled in-line or branch joints with or without connector block.
