ÖLFLEX SOLAR XLR
2. Application
®
ÖLFLEX SOLAR XLR cables are weather-, abrasion- and UV-resistant. These halogen free, double insulated,
cross-linked solar cables are suitable for permanent outdoor use. They are for use for photovoltaic systems both
for cabling of solar modules among themselves and as extension cable between the individual module strings
and DC / AC inverter.
Special features are the extended temperature range and that they achieve best values concerning UV-, ozone-
and abrasion resistance. The cables are Type Approved by TÜV Rheinland according latest version 2 PfG
1169/08.2007 (PV1-F).
