UL Listed 150mm Tinned Copper Epr Rubber Insulated and CPE Rubber Jacket Dlo Power Cable Diesel Locomotive Cable Heavy-Duty Flexible Power Cable

Product description

Diesel Locomotive Cable which is commonly known as DLO Cable is a flexible (tinned copper Class I, 24 AWG strands) rubber insulated (EPR-Ethylene propylene rubber) and rubber jacketed (CPE-chlorinated polyethylene) 2000 volt UL rated cable originally developed for use in the wiring of Diesel Locomotives. Diesel Locomotives use diesel engines to drive generators to power electric motors that turn the wheels, DLO cable is used to transmit the power from the generator to the electric drive motor. It is available from 14 AWG to 1111 KCMIL. It is also used in many other applications where a flexible, tough cable is needed due to tight bending radiuses.

DLO Cable in sizes 1/0 and larger is generally tray cable rated allowing for use in industrial facilities.

DLO Cable may be an allowable substitute for welding cable that is often miss-used when a flexible cable is needed (welding cable is generally only allowed on the secondary circuits of an electric welder-ie. welding leads).

DLO can be thought of as a very heavy duty welding cable due to the double jacket (or insulation and jacket) construction and will at times be used as welding cable especially for the high amperage systems.
