HIGH VOLTAGE HEAT SHRINK INSULATION TAPE

Typical Application: MV busbars and bare conductors for indoor & outdoor

PHVIT is a heat-shrinkable, adhesive coated tape which provides insulation enhancement and protection against accidentally induced discharge. It is designed to combine the integrity of a heat-shrinkable tubing with the versatility of a wraparound product. It is quick and easy to install. Upon application of heat the tape shrinks down and the adhesive lining melts amalgamating the overlapping layers together, producing a complete lap to lap seal. A single layer of PHVIT tape, two-thirds overlapped, will provide AC voltage withstand to at least 17.5 kV increasing to 25kV if a second layer is applied. A third layer can take it to withstand 33 kV.
