Halogen Free Flame Retardant Power Cords and Cables

Oct. 8, 2010
Northwire Technical Cable, an innovative solutions provider in the marketing, design and manufacture of technical and retractile cables, has introduced EcoPower, an environmentally friendly power cord that is halogen free flame retardant (HFFR) (PVC free) and UL listed.

It is the industry’s first HFFR power cord that is UL 62 approved. EcoPower is flexible, durable and guaranteed to perform in harsh environments. Custom EcoPower Cords and Cables can be designed to ship in five days or less with no minimum order length or quantity requirements.

"The EcoPower Halogen-Free Flame-Retardant UL 62-approved Power Cord jacket material provides an ecologically aligned alternative to traditional PVC and other materials," says Katina Kravik, chief executive officer of Northwire, "EcoPower does not contain phthalates and complies with current and future regulations — exceeding the requirements of many applications for which it was designed." EcoPower UL 62-approved power cord and cables are ideal for medical devices, computers, consumer electronics, aerospace, marine and shipboard, transit and other applications where the protection of people, the environment and equipment from toxic and corrosive gas is critical."

EcoPower Halogen Free Flame Retardant cables and UL-approved power cords are engineered to withstand abrasion and extreme temperatures (-50°C to 105°C). They resist oil, abrasion, kinks and marring. They pass 850 cycles when tested to UL abrasion test 1510, and are VW-1 and FT-2 rated for finished cable. EcoPower is available in black and custom colors and in retractile cord configurations.
