Description
Specially designed for primary insulation and weather protection of photovoltaic connectors, HarshMet CPS-P is a sleeve made from advanced silicone rubber, factory-expanded over a removable plastic supporting core. Its high shrink ratio allows it to work perfectly on the interfaces of photovoltaic connectors and optical cables. Removal of the core (unwind) after positioning allows the tube to shrink into position forming a moisture-tight seal. The live memory action of the specially formulated material ensures a permanent, durable environmental seal and insulation.
Features
• Continuous operating temperature: -55°C~200°C
• Shrink Ratio : 6:1 .suits for an extensive range of cable sizes because of the shrinkage
• Retains its resiliency and pressure even after prolonged years of ageing and exposure, seals tight against moisture and water
• Good weather resistance, ozone ageing, ultraviolet and salt mist corrosion resistance, performs stably under long-period exposure to the sun
• Simple installation, requires no special heating tools , and adhesive to seal the connections
• Standard color: black/grey , other colors can be customized
