Mechanical Characteristics:
Materials:
Endcaps are silver-plated brass; leads are
tin-plated copper and tube is glass.
Optional sleeve is flexible fluoropolymer (UL
Flammability rating VW-1). The tube will self
extinguish within one minute. 25% maximum
flag burn per ASTM Flammability Test ASTM
D2671 Procedure C.
Leads will withstand a seven pound pull
applied axially to the lead for five seconds.
Leads will be bent 90 degrees in one direction,
back to original direction, then 90 degrees in
the opposite direction and return to the cycle.
Leads will withstand two cycles. The bending
is to be done with a two pound weight
attached to the end of the lead.
Temp. Range:
-55°C to +85°C with proper derating.
Weight:
1000 = 1.33kg.
