Okoguard-Okolon Insulation
Composite Insulation
Okoguard-Okolon is Okonite's trade name for its ethylene propylene-chlorosulfonated
polyethylene composite insulation. The combination of the two materials provides a
dielectric which requires no outer covering and which has excellent resistance to heat,
mechanical abuse, flame, weathering, most oils, acids and alkalies.
The advantages of Okoguard EPR, with a proven track record of over 30 years as a medium
voltage insulation, are now offered in low voltage cables.
Applications
Okoguard-Okolon 600 Volt Power and Control Cables are recommended for use in all low
voltage circuits where continuity of service is the prime consideration. These cables may
be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors, in raceways, underground ducts,
directly buried in the earth, or lashed to a messenger for aerial installation. These
cables may also be installed in cable tray (size 1/0 AWG and larger per NEC
392.2).
