Returns Simplified.“16/4 Shielded VFD Cable is a specialized solution engineered to bridge the gap between Variable Frequency Drives and industrial motors. While standard power cables often fail in VFD environments, this cable utilizes high-performance shielding and cross-linked insulation to suppress electrical noise and withstand high-voltage spikes, ensuring the longevity of both your drive and motor.”
Operating a VFD with unshielded wire can turn your motor leads into unintended radio transmitters, creating electromagnetic interference (EMI) that scrambles nearby control signals and sensors. This 16/4 VFD construction is specifically designed to contain that noise while protecting the motor from the destructive “reflected waves” common in Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) systems
Superior EMI/RFI Suppression: Featuring a foil shield and a 85 % tinned copper braid shield, this cable acts as a Faraday cage to trap high-frequency noise and drain it safely to ground.
Reflected Wave Protection: The specialized Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation is thermally stable and rated to handle the “corona discharge” effect and 2000V+ voltage spikes that can carbonize and melt standard PVC insulation.
Rugged Industrial Jacket: The outer jacket is specifically formulated to resist industrial oils, coolants, and chemicals, ensuring it remains pliable and intact in harsh factory wash-down or machining environments.
