Laboratory Analysis Results by Enamel / Magnet Wire Types
Elektrisola Magnet Wire Types are subject to independent laboratory analysis for hazardous materials repeatedly. The test results prove the environmental compatibility of Elektrisola products.
The laboratory analysis results are composed of the results for the conductor material and the results for the base enamel, a top coat and a selfbonding varnish where applicable.
Conductor:
- Cu (copper wire)
- ITW (increased tension wire)
- HTW (high tension wire)
- XHTW (extra high tension wire)
- Cu/Ag (silver plated copper wire)
- Al (aluminum wire)
- CCA (copper clad aluminum wire)
- HTCCA (high tension copper clad aluminum wire)
- SHTW (super high tension bare wire)
- ICCA (increades copper clad aluminum bare wire)
- EHTW (extreme high tension bare wire)
- RCW (reinforced copper bare wire)
- CuNi (Cooper Nickel Alloy 10)
Base enamel:
- for P130, P155, P155b, P155p, Pg155, Pp155, P180, Pv180, P190, P210, G155, G155p, G170, G180 (polyurethane-based insulation varnish)
- for E180, A200 (polyesterimide-based insulation varnish)
- for I220 (polyamideimide-based insulation varnish)
Top coat:
- for PN155, PN180, EN180 (polyamide-based insulation varnish)
- for AI210 (polyamideimide-based insulation varnish)
- for ML240 (polyimide-based insulation varnish)
Selfbonding enamel:
- for AB-, BB-, CB- and DB-series (butybond selfbonding wire)
- for CS-, DS-, ES-, FS-, HS-, IS-, KS-, MS-, OS- and PS-series (solabond selfbonding wire)
- for BE-, HT-, KT-, QT-, RT-, ST-, TT- and VT-series (thermobond selfbonding wire)
REACH Correspondance Certified by Plants
Although magnet wire is not required to be listed by REACH, the European Community Regulation on chemicals and their safe use, all Elektrisola plants certify, that their magnet wire products contain less than 0.1% of the Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) published by ECHA, the European Chemical Agency .
