WHY BUY BELDEN’S VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE (VFD) CABLES?

Typical tray cable and single conductor Thermoplastic High Heat-resistant Nylon-coated (THHN) solutions have proven ineffective in resolving radiated noise, voltage spikes, and the service life of Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) systems.
Thermoplastic High Heat-resistant Nylon-coated (THHN) insulation will degrade and fail in the face of voltage spikes and heat build-up, causing cable failure.
Most drive manufacturers advise against using THHN or unshielded tray cables for VFD applications.
THHN does not protect against capacitive coupling (cable charging), resulting in reduced motor torque, false motor trips, and currents inducing onto other systems, perhaps even risking human safety.
Distances for cable runs using Thermoplastic High Heat-resistant Nylon-coated (THHN) wire are less than those using Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLP) insulated cables.
Belden guarantees reliable installed performance with a 10-year standard warranty.
Belden Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) cables are National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 79 compliant.
