Structure:
Conductor: | Copper/nickel plating 27% |
Other conductor materials on request. Speciality materials can also be processed, which are provided by the customer. Corresponding tests are carried out at the factory |
|
Insulation: | Ceramic in thicknesses of 5-20 µm |
Color: | gray |
Dimensions: | AWG 41 to AWG 18 or 0.07 mm to 1.0 mm |
Linear density: | Like that of copper = 8.92 kg/dm3 per km |
Nickel migration: | At temperatures > 315°C, the KD500 is subject to nickel penetration into the copper. This effect is negligible with larger diameters but considerable with wire diameters < 0.15 mm (AWG 34) after 48 hours of operation, resulting in an increase in resistance. |
Heat resistance:
Continuous -90°C to +500°C (2500 hours min.)
Short-term up to 800°C (tested for 10 days or 240 hours) and peaks up to 1000°C.
Electrical values:
Test voltage 150V AC, corresponding to 212V DC, test with rolled wire Bending radius = 20 x diameter.
For bending radius < 20 x diameter please enquire
Breakdown voltage > 150V AC
Resistance max. 3.10-6 Ω.cm at 20° C after ageing at 500°C
Further properties
Moisture resistance: | The ceramic is sensitive to moisture. It may need to be impregnated in the finished state. |
|
Chemical resistance: | The ceramic is highly resistant to solvents and organic oils | |
Radiation resistance: | High resistance. | |
Flammability: | Non-flammable. At temperatures > 1000°C the wire can melt but not burn. |
|
Bending radius: | 5x outer diameter (see table) | |
Halogen-free: | Yes | |
Outgassing: | None | |
Verarbeitungshinweise
Keramik unterscheidet sich stark von herkömmlichen Drahtisolierungen. It is very hard and sensitive to moisture. It therefore requires special care during processing.
- KD 500 must be stored and processed in a dry environment.
- The winding must not be subjected to shocks or impacts.
- No higher tensile forces than those specified in the table below may be used for winding.
- The bending radius must not exceed
5 x the outer diameter of the wire (see table). - The wire should not be unwound overhead but axially, preferably with a constant tensile force.
- The wires must not be kinked under any circumstances. Visual inspection of the winding.
- A bending radius that is too tight or a kink in the wire can generally be recognized by cracks in the ceramic insulation, which are visible as a white discoloration of the surface.
Stripping
The ceramic coating on the KD500 is very thin and adheres to the conductor. Conventional stripping tools can therefore not be used. Stripping can be carried out with fine sandpaper.
Please note: When mechanically stripping nickel-coated wires, this coating must not be removed, otherwise good welding is no longer guaranteed.
Connect
The ceramic wires are connected either by soldering with silver solder, crimping or wrapping.
