1. Halogen-Free EPR Insulation: EN 50267/IEC 60754 Zero-Corrosive-Gas Engineering
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH utilizes proprietary halogen-free EPR (ethylene propylene rubber) insulation meeting EN 50267-2-1 and IEC 60754-1 comprehensive standards, ensuring zero halogen content and zero hydrogen chloride (HCl) gas generation during fire exposure—critical safety feature for enclosed industrial environments, tunnels, and water-adjacent installations.
Safety strategy: 3GSEGCH halogen-free EPR eliminates toxic HCl gas release during fire, protecting equipment integrity and enabling installation in sensitive environments where equipment electronics and control systems cannot tolerate corrosive gases. Result: professional safety-critical specification enabling indoor/enclosed industrial integration without HCl damage risk.
2. Halogen-Free Type ST8 Jacket: Low-Smoke Zero-HCl Outer Sheath (3GSEGCH-Specific)
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH features halogen-free type ST8 outer sheath—unique medium voltage specification distinguishing this product from standard 3GSEGCY—providing zero halogen content, minimal PFTE (perfluorinated) gas, and comprehensive low-smoke formulation per IEC 60502-2.
3. Dual Copper Screen Architecture: Red Tape + Concentric Helical Design
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH features identical dual-screen architecture to 3GSEGCY: (a) internal dual red copper tape shielding (16–25 mm² per conductor size) for electromagnetic field containment, and (b) external concentric overall copper screen (red copper wires + helical tape, ~0.5 × conductor cross-section electrical) for comprehensive fault protection.
4. Low-Smoke Performance: EN 50268/IEC 61034 Smoke Density Compliance
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH meets enhanced smoke density testing per EN 50268-1/-2, DIN EN 61034-1+2, and IEC 61034-1+2, ensuring minimal smoke generation (PFTE ≤50%) during fire exposure, protecting occupant visibility for emergency evacuation.
5. 3-Level Frequency Converter Compatibility: Max 14.6 kV @ 6.6 kV Rated
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH supports 3-level (three-phase) frequency converter systems with maximum permissible voltage 14.6 kV when connected to 6.6 kV rated converters, enabling advanced power electronics integration beyond standard 3-phase 2-level systems.
6. Water & Underground Capability: ATEX Certified & Submerged Installation
GAALFLEX® VFD EMV-FC 3GSEGCH is approved for water installation (submersion capability) and underground direct burial, enabling subsurface utility networks, hydroelectric facilities, and underground mining operations without additional conduit protection.
