Description:

SI 117 is thermoplastic semi conductive material specially developed for Conductor and Insulation shielding for Sioplas base medium voltage (3.3 to 33 kV) power cables. The base polymer is copolymer modified polyolefin suitable for 90°C continuous service temperature

Specifications :

Cables with conductor and bondable insulation, shielding of SI 117 when made using standard manufacturing and test procedure meet the following cable specifications:

• NEMA – WC – 7
• BS 6622
• IEC 60502
• IEC 60840

Processing Guidelines :

Suitable for conventional PE wire and cable extrusion line.
The recommended melt extrusion temperature is 140°C – 170°C. The actual processing condition has to be determined by trial on specific extruder as this may vary depending on the extruder / head and tooling used.

Pre-Drying:

Semi conductive Compounds absorb moisture, which is undesirable to get smooth surface. It is therefore recommended that the compound SI 117 should be thoroughly dried (preferably by dehumidified hot air) at 70°C – 75°C for 2 – 3 hours prior to changing in extruder feed.

Shelf Life/Storage:

SI 117 Thermoplastic Semi Conductive can be stored for 12 months from date of manufacturing, without significant deterioration of the quality of material. However, it is recommended to be consumed as soon as possible.
SI 117 Thermoplastic Semi Conductive is recommended to be stored at in a cool, dry & clean environment in unopened original packaging.

Packaging:

25 Kg packed in Moisture Barrier Multilayer liner with PP Woven bag.

Safety:

SI 117 Thermoplastic Semi Conductive is not classified as dangerous preparation.
The products are supplied in the form of free-flowing granules of approx. 2-3 mm size and can be readily handled with commercially available equipment. Handling and transport of the products may generate some dust and fines, which constitute a potential hazard for dust explosion. All metal parts in the system should therefore be properly grounded. Properly designed equipment and good housekeeping will reduce the risk. Inhalation of any type of dust should be avoided as it may cause irritation of the respiratory system. The product is intended for industrial use only. MSDS is available on request.
