In the industrial sector, compliance with international standards and specific national references is essential to make products interchangeable across multiple fields. ICC’s UNILEV® and UNILEV®-TW line marks a unique milestone on the market: combining European and international standards with North American homologation through custom UL Styles, created specifically for us.
The Real Turning Point: UL Standards Dedicated to XL-EVA Technology
This is not simply the adoption of existing standards. The UL organization recognized the unique features of ICC’s UNIV® and created new dedicated standards (AWM Style 30043 / 30044 / 30071 / 30072 / 30073 / 30074). This recognition is based specifically on the design and unique performance of our material for special XL-EVA rubber insulated cables.
The entire production process takes place at our plant in Bolgare, guaranteeing total quality control, traceability, and 100% Made in Italy manufacturing value.
Benefits for Operational and Logistic Efficiency
Choosing the UNILEV® and UNILEV®-TW range means adopting a cutting-edge solution that radically simplifies production processes. Strategic benefits for manufacturers include:
- Uncompromised global standardization: The exact same product type can be used both for European markets and for machines and equipment exported to the USA and Canada.
- Simplified logistics management: The reduction of stock costs by having a single cable to manage in inventory and production.
- Lower risks: The bill of materials is simplified, and the risk of errors in managing different destination markets is eliminated.
- Validated exclusive technology: The special XL-EVA rubber insulation, with its appreciated and recognized performance, is now officially UL-validated and certified.
Extreme Thermal and Mechanical Performance
In addition to prestigious international recognition, UNILEV® cables offer top-tier technical characteristics to cope with the harshest environments:
- Wide temperature range: Designed to withstand conductor operating temperatures between -60 °C and +155 °C.
- Safety and Halogen Free: The XL-EVA insulation (LEV150 LSOH) is halogen-free and low-smoke in the event of a fire, ensuring a high level of protection for people and equipment.
- Advanced chemical resistance: They guarantee high resistance to ozone, UV rays, mineral oils, and tearing, as well as compatibility with Class F varnishes.
Fields of Application
With approved use up to 1000 V in fixed and protected installation (inside conduits, equipment, switches, and control panels), the UNILEV® range represents an ideal solution for:
- Electric motors and alternators.
- Industrial wiring for high and low-temperature applications.
- Electrical panels and control equipment.
- Automotive and energy sectors.
