Cables Provide Cold Temperature Flexibility in Cryogenic Environments

Sept. 5, 2013
Cicoil's Flexx-Sil Flat Cables provide reliability and cold temperature (-65C) flexibility in Cryogenic equipment applications.

Cicoil's Flexx-Sil™ Flat Cables provide reliability and cold temperature (-65 C) flexibility in Cryogenic equipment applications.  In addition, these Class 1 Clean Room Rated cables are 100% contaminant free, exceed the outgassing requirements of ASTM E-595 and are well suited for use in vacuum environments.

Through the use of a patented process of encasing individual components, each crystal-clear cable can incorporate Controlled Impedance Pairs, Power Conductors, Ethernet, Thermocouple, Coax, USB, FireWire, Tubing for liquid or air transfer and Cicoil's StripMount Fastening Strip, all combined in a single flat profile, precisely controlling the inner and outer dimensions of the entire cable.  Integrating multiple elements into a compact flat cable design allows for a tighter bend radius, space & weight savings, noise reduction and longer service life.

Unlike PVC, Teflon or Polyurethane jacketed cables that become stiff and brittle, when utilized in cold temperature environments, Cicoil's exclusive, shock absorbing Flexx-Sil encapsulation needs no external conduit for protection, retains flexibility and will not deform, wear or crack due to long term exposure to extremely low temperatures (-65 C), vibration, high heat (+260 C), mechanical stress, water, alcohol and many chemicals.  In addition, the ultra-durable Flexx-Sil jacketing material is "self-healing" from small punctures and cable jacket damage can easily be repaired in the field.
