Polyrad® ULTRA Multi-Conductor Cable - SPEC 720
Through a wealth of experience providing effective cabling solutions for challenging and hazardous environments, Prysmian responds to yet another industry demand by defining the next generation of cable — Polyrad® ULTRA. As developments and opportunities in transit technology drive the adoption of more sophisticated transit infrastructures, available space decreases. Consequently, the transit industry is experiencing increasing demand for smaller, lighter cabling systems. Ideal wherever space is at a premium and high-density cabling is required, Polyrad® ULTRA cables offer better performance, reduced weight and smaller diameters. Polyrad® ULTRA singles are designed for multi-conductor 600 Volt constructions rated at 125 °C to meet a variety of high-density cabling applications.

Applications
- Ideally suited for use where high-density cabling is required, as these cables offer both size and weight advantages
- Engineered and manufactured for both original equipment and retrofit use in electronic equipment
- Utilized where environmental factors require cable characteristics to perform with a high degree of flame retardancy and excellent moisture-stable electrical values. Where reliability is the primary concern and maximum performance is demanded.
- For use on all types of heavy- and light-rail cars, rapid transit cars and diesel-electric locomotives
Features
- Reduced diameter and lighter-weight transit cable - 25% smaller in diameter and lighter in weight than conventional Polyrad® XT 600 V
- Temperature rating at 125°C for long life, higher ampacities and protection from terminal overloads
- Higher ampacities and simplified installations are possible due to small outside diameters, flexible stranding and insulation
- Outstanding thermal stability at elevated temperatures
- Maximum flame retardance
- Excellent low-temperature performance; suitable for installation in sub-zero conditions
- Extra-tough, mechanically rugged irradiated thermoset insulation and jacket
- Resistant to most oils and chemicals
Compliances
Flame Test: IEEE 1202/FT4 (70,000 BTU/hr), IEEE 383 (70,000 BTU/hr), VW-1
Other: BSS 7239, SMP 800-C, ASTM E662, NFPA 130 2020, RoHS and Reach Compliant
Packaging
