Engineers Ask: HYflex™ Power Distribution Cables FAQs
What makes HYflex™ different from XLPO-insulated cable?
HYflex™ offers substantial improvement in flexibility over XLPO-insulated cables.
Is the added flexibility really beneficial?
When installing cables in the tight spaces of an engine compartment and the need exists to easily push and bend the cable within confined areas, absolutely.
Why was HYflex™ designed specifically for diesel hybrid vehicles?
HYflex™ was designed as a specific cable solution to the challenges faced both in installation and operation of diesel hybrid vehicles that have limited space in engine compartments and operate in an environment that demands performance even with high and low temperatures, high voltage, and exposure to chemicals.
Can HYflex™ be used outside of heavy-duty hybrid vehicle applications?
Yes, Hyflex™ power distribution cables can be used in any application that requires flexibility, chemical resistance, and performance over a wide temperature range – and peace of mind for automotive high-voltage requirements.
