Insulation
Okozel is Okonite's trade name for ETFE Fluoropolymer, a modified Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene. Okozel is extremely rugged with excellent resistance to cut-through and abrasion. It is chemically inert and has low permeability.Okozel is flame retardant and non-propagating, passes the IEEE 383 and UL vertical tray flame test, and is rated "non-burning" under ASTM D635. It is rated for 150°C (302°F) conductor operating temperature for continuous use and retains all useful physical properties at temperatures down to -100°F (-148°C). Okozel is a radiation resistant dielectric and meets or exceeds all requirements of IEEE Standards 383 and 323.

Specifications
Conductors: Bare copper per ASTM B-3, stranded per ASTM B-8.

Insulation: Flame-retardant, radiation-resistant Okozel, a modified ETFE fluoropolymer per NEMA Std. HP-100.2.
Insulated conductor meets or exceeds the requirements of IEEE Std. 383, Type Test of Class M Electric Cables for Nuclear Power Generating Stations and is rated " non-burning" under ASTM D635.
Listed as Type Z or ZW.

Conductor Identification: Base colors with traces in accordance with ICEA S-73-532, Method 1. See table bellow.

Assembly: Conductors cabled together in accordance with ICEA S-73-532; with non-hygroscopic fillers as required; and a binder tape overall.

Sheath: Close fitting, impervious, continuous, corrugated aluminum C-L-X sheath also serves as a grounding conductor when used with appropriate end fittings. Okozel C-L-X cable meets or exceeds the requirements of IEEE Std. 383, Type Test of Class IE Electric Cables for Nuclear Power Generating Stations and is rated "non-burning" under ASTM D635.

Applications
Okozel C-L-X control cables are recommended for use in either nuclear powered (90°C rated) or fossil-fueled (150°C rated) generating stations where continuity of service in critical circuits is of primary importance. These conductors, which are rated 150°C in dry and 75°C in wet locations (90°C as Class 1E), permit smaller conduit use through higher ampacities and thinner insulation walls than comparable XLP or rubber constructions. C-L-X Okozel control cables are also recommended for high ambient temperature areas up to 150°C (302°F) in industrial applications or for cold weather installations to -65°C (-85°F).

Product Features

  • Passes the Vertical Tray Flame Test requirements of UL 1581 at 70,000 Btu/hr, ICEA T-29-520 210,000 Btu/Hr., and IEEE 1202-1991.
  • Outstanding nuclear radiation resistance even when exposed to LOCA conditions.
  • 150°C continuous operating temperature, 90°C in containment area.
  • Low smoke emission.
  • Smaller and lighter diameters permit more cable per tray.
  • Cold installation temperature in excess of -65°C.
  • Excellent compression and impact resistance.
  • Chemically inert-unaffected by typical acids, bases, solvents and cleaning agents, fuels and hydraulic fluids.
  • High dielectric strength.
  • Low dielectric constant.
  • Grounded C-L-X sheath provides employee safety.
  • Qualified for nuclear generating stations in accordance with IEEE Stds 383 and 323.
