Air Brake Coil Electric Cables have advanced thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation materials. These materials provide superior flexibility, allowing the cables to withstand repetitive coiling, uncoiling, and flexing. This advanced insulation reduces internal friction, ensuring that the cables maintain their structural integrity despite continuous movement, significantly reducing wear and tear compared to conventional insulation materials. The TPE and XLPE coatings also prevent cracking, increasing cable life by up to 50%, even in extreme temperature cycles.

Technical Advantages

When transporting goods across varied climates, your vehicles may experience sub-zero temperatures. Thanks to specialized thermoplastic materials, Air Brake Coil Electric Cables are designed to maintain their flexibility at temperatures as low as -40°C (-40°F). This ensures that even in frigid conditions, the cable remains pliable, preventing cracking or stiffness, which can result in intermittent connections or electrical failure.

Air Brake Coil Electric Cables use high-purity copper conductors, often tinned to resist corrosion, providing excellent electrical conductivity with minimal voltage drop. This ensures the quick and reliable transmission of electrical signals to the air brake system. Copper’s low resistance minimizes power loss, enhancing braking response times and contributing to more effective and energy-efficient braking cycles. This is critical for heavy-duty vehicles that require immediate and consistent braking power under load.

Enhanced EMI/RFI Shielding for Signal Integrity

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) can disrupt the performance of air brake systems, particularly in vehicles with multiple electrical systems operating nearby. Air Brake Coil Electric Cables are often equipped with foil or braided shielding made from aluminum or copper to mitigate these risks. This shielding provides excellent protection against external electromagnetic signals, ensuring the integrity of the signals transmitted to the braking system remains intact. This shielding ensures minimal interference from surrounding electrical components, offering a stable and reliable connection even in electrically noisy environments.

The cables are constructed with reinforced tensile-strength yarns woven into the insulation, allowing the cable to withstand extreme mechanical stress during usage. This high-tensile strength minimizes elongation, maintaining the cable’s shape and preventing performance loss due to pulling or stretching. This feature is especially critical for vehicles that operate in environments where cables are subjected to extreme tension, bending, or pulling forces, such as commercial trailers or heavy-duty machinery.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

What insulation materials are used in Air Brake Coil Electric Cables for temperature and abrasion resistance?

Air Brake Coil Electric Cables are typically insulated with thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). These materials offer excellent resistance to temperature extremes (-40°C to +105°C) and provide superior abrasion resistance, ensuring the cables endure wear and tear from mechanical movement and harsh environmental exposure.

How do Air Brake Coil Electric Cables prevent signal loss due to mechanical stress and vibration?

The cables use high-strength copper conductors with reinforced insulation. Additionally, the coiled design allows for flexibility without compromising the internal structure, reducing signal degradation caused by mechanical vibrations or tension. This ensures consistent, low-resistance electrical performance even under high-stress conditions.

What electromagnetic shielding is included in Air Brake Coil Electric Cables to prevent interference?

Air Brake Coil Electric Cables often include aluminum foil or copper braid shielding. This protects the cable from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI), which can disrupt the performance of air brake systems, especially in environments with multiple electrical systems running simultaneously.

How do Air Brake Coil Electric Cables handle exposure to corrosive substances like road salts?

The outer jacket is made from UV-resistant, chemical-resistant materials such as high-strength PVC or polyurethane, protecting corrosive elements, including road salts, oils, and hydraulic fluids. This ensures the cables maintain integrity, preventing corrosion and degradation, even in harsh road conditions.

What makes the cable design of Air Brake Coil Electric Cables suitable for extreme cold climates?

The insulation is made from flexible, low-temperature resistant materials such as TPE or XLPE, which maintain their elasticity even in sub-zero temperatures. This prevents the cables from becoming brittle or cracking in extremely cold environments, ensuring consistent performance of the air brake systems during winter operations.
