SHIELD 30 is a high-performance semi-conducting tape designed for the rigorous demands of higher voltage electrical applications up to 110kV. This tape is crafted from a self-fusing, semi-conducting ethylene propylene rubber (EPR) base, making it highly conformable and ideal for splicing and repairing up to 110kV. SHIELD 30 is specifically engineered for applications involving XLPE cable terminations and joints, as well as for shielding various devices. Its unique ability to retain conductivity even when stretched combined with its resistance to environmental factors like ozone, UV, and xenon exposure, making it a reliable choice for maintaining system integrity in challenging conditions.
High Voltage Applications - suitable for use in splicing and repairing tasks up to 110kV, ensuring versatility in high voltage environments
Self-Fusing - merges seamlessly with itself upon application, providing a secure, homogeneous insulation layer without the need for adhesives
Temperature Resilience - withstands temperatures up to 130°C (266°F) in short-term overload situations, offering reliability under stress
Environmental Resistance - maintains performance integrity when exposed to ozone, UV, and xenon, enhancing durability in outdoor or harsh environments
Conductivity Retention - continues to conduct electricity effectively even when stretched, ensuring consistent electrical performance
High Conformability - easily conforms to irregular shapes and surfaces, making it ideal for complex joint and termination configurations
