Single Conductor Cables (Hook-Up Wire) are widely used in various applications, from automotive, home appliance, and industrial use. Writing about the particular cable type CRT16-2.5WH-100 specifically, this cable is mostly used in industrial applications, for electrical or communications wiring of power, control, and signal applications.

CRT16-2.5WH-100 has a jacket of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as its insulating material. This material is beneficial for its mechanical strength, oil resistant properties, and its flame retardant characteristics. The ribbon cables have conductor sizes of 16 AWG and are constructed in pairs of 2C/3C configurations. The conductor size has a wire gauge of 2.5 mm for single wire measurements and has a maximum conductor insulating temperature of 105°C. The strands within the cables are composed of soft-drawn copper wire, made of a tinned copper alloy, and are twisted together for parallel CMR(communication Multipurpose Rating) rated structures.

The insulated PVC material of the cables also has an operating azimuthal bend radius of no less than fifteen times the outer diameter of the cable. CRT16-2.5WH-100 has a suggested bending radius of 15-20mm for each individual channel and a minimum recommended length of five times the outer diameter of each channel for each assembled stripe. The voltage rating for exposed and non-exposed cables ranges from 600V to 1000V.

Regarding the working principle of CRT16-2.5WH-100, the principle lies in the insulation resistance from the conductor materials used, as it is the conductor’s job to handle the electrical signals or power. The insulation itself defends against power leakage and creates a protective environment for the conductor itself. At the same time, it also prevents direct contact with humans, in addition to other conductor materials. The conductor materials used are soft-drawn copper wire and tinned copper alloy, both of which are harmless enough for human contact.

Furthermore, CRT16-2.5WH-100 has an environmental working temperature range between -15°C and +80°C. Usage in higher temperature ranges than this is not advised and should be avoided to avoid any potential fire hazards. It also has a CMR of 600 Volts rating and is UL(Underwriters Laboratories) listed. The UL listing suggests that the cable has been tested for safety in accordance with the agency’s safety standards. There are also various approvals for use the cable in applications, for example CSA (Canadian Standards Association), UL 758 (Wire and Cable Products), UL 1581 (Wire and Cable Units), CMR (Communication Multi-Purpose Rating), and ETL (Electrical Testing Laboratories).

In summary, CRT16-2.5WH-100 is a single conductor cable specially designed for industrial applications, with particular attention given to its insulation and conductor material to ensure safety during usage. It has a variety of approvals for applications and good safety ratings. With its various features, CRT16-2.5WH-100 is an ideal type of single conductor cable for various industrial applications.
