Heat Shrink and Cold Shrink Technology
Heat Shrink and Cold Shrink Technologies are an indispensable part of
the power cable industry as they contribute to the development of
power infrastructure. While both heat shrink and cold shrink
technologies are used for jointing power cables, they both have their
pros and cons in specific situations.
Compaq International produces different types of high-quality,
durable, and reliable cable accessories which can be heat shrink or
cold shrink technologies. Both types of technologies are proven to
provide years of service without needing maintenance.

Here is a glimpse of how Compaq International’s covers heat shrink
and cold shrink technologies:
Heat Shrink Technology : Compaq International began its operation
with heat shrink technology 23 years ago and they perfected it for field
usage. The brand uses specially formulated thermoplastic polymer
materials that have the capability to shrink and conform with precision
to different shapes. Elastic memory uses cross linking that allows them
to return to their original shape after heat application. Within the
advanced heat shrink product range, multi-layer tubing and unique
materials science incorporate several functions into each component.

Compaq International’s heat shrink products have a proven track
records without maintenance which translates into massive cost
savings. These products are built for robustness - they are capable of
sustaining in the harshest of weather conditions and are also resistant
to chemicals.
Salient Features:
1. Flame Retardant, 2. Superior reliability, 3. Resistance to thermal
ageing, 4. Hydrophobicity, 5. Tracking and erosion resistance.
6. High thermal property, 7. Resistance to surface electrical activity

Cold Shrink Technology
In situations where heat shrink technology is unsuitable, cold shrink
technology comes to the rescue of power projects. In places with
extreme weather conditions or unsafe environments such as areas
around gas pipelines, cold shrink technology products are a safer
option.

Compaq International’s cold shrink products, made from silicone or
ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) are excellent at
connecting and sealing power cables. The cold shrink tubes come
fitted with a spiral cord inside of them. When a tube is positioned over
a desired place, the spiral in the tube is pulled out, which causes the
tube to shrink to its pre-stretched size. The tube thus fits the cable
perfectly and constantly exerts radial pressure for the lifetime of the
joint or termination.

Compaq International’s cold shrink technology products also have a
proven track records in field. The silicone rubber used in the products
is reliable for use in the higher voltage classes, and it conforms well to
cable bends, which is suitable for long term usage and protecting
against moisture ingress, or voids within the installation. Cold Shrink
products are suitable for use in refineries, coastal environments, high
altitude environments, underwater environments, solar power plants
and wind farms.
