EcoCable and EcoFlex

Product catalog summary
Introduction
EcoCable® and EcoFlex™ are advanced control cables by Alpha Wire, designed for high performance with reduced environmental impact. These cables are smaller, lighter, and recyclable due to the use of modified polyphenylene ether (mPPE) for jacketing and insulation.
Key Features
  • 100% recyclable materials.
  • Up to 47% smaller and 65% lighter than traditional cables.
  • Temperature range from -50°C to 105°C.
  • Up to 87% less outgassing.
Environmental Benefits
EcoCable and EcoFlex are free from halogens, phthalates, and heavy metals, complying with RoHS and WEEE standards. The mPPE insulation offers low specific gravity, contributing to weight savings and improved dielectric strength, allowing for reduced wall thickness without compromising electrical properties.
Shielding Options
Available in unshielded, foil shielded, and SupraShield® foil + braid shield configurations to accommodate various electrical environments.
Availability
These cables are available in various sizes and constructions, with lengths starting from 100 feet, ensuring quick global delivery.
Specifications
  • EcoCable: Voltage rating of 600 V, bend radius of 6x, available in lengths of 100 ft and 1000 ft.
  • EcoFlex: Suitable for moderate flex applications, rated for over 1 million flex cycles, with a bend radius of 5x static and 5x flexing for unshielded, and 6x static and 8x flexing for shielded versions.
Approvals and Compliance
Both cable types comply with UL, CE, CSA, RoHS, REACH, and WEEE standards, and are suitable for NFPA 79 applications.
Conclusion
EcoCable and EcoFlex are eco-friendly, high-performance cables offering enhanced performance in a compact form. For more information and to request free samples, visit Alpha Wire's website.
