Lapp Kabel recently launched its comprehensive product range for photovoltaic applications under the name ölflex Solar. All cables are UV-resistant and characterised by a high level of resistance to the weather and temperature. The latest highlight is the ölflex XLR product range produced using electron beam cross-linking, a technology adopted from the aerospace industry to give polymer materials stronger thermal and mechanical properties. The resulting TÜV-approved cables offer thermal resistance from -40 to 120°C and long lasting functionality under all weather conditions.
Standard cross-linked ölflex XLS cables are increasingly being used in the temperature range from -40 to 100°C. Cables are normally mounted on flat or pitched roofs and in field systems for wiring solar panels together. Due to the large conductor cross-section, these hard-wearing cables are used in large solar systems as a collective line to carry high electric loads between the individual rows of modules and as a connector to the power inverter. It is also suitable for underground installation.
To supplement the cables, Lapp also offers extruded, preassembled or freely configurable solar connectors and weather-resistant connector boxes.
