Overview
Our Raychem RVS Rayvolve Splice Cover kits are made of a specially formulated EPMD elastomer. The material gripping force combined with a high-performance sealant to form a reliable, water-resistant, insulating sleeve that is UL listed and CSA certified for direct burial applications over in-line compression or shear bolt connectors. In addition, our Rayvolve Splice Covers are well suited for evaluation in other applications: wind turbines, residential junction blocks, connections to secondary network protectors, joint covers for “Y” connections in street lighting circuits, cable connection for an overhead bundled cable, coax cables in telecom applications, environmental seals for terminal lugs and insulated airport connectors. The Rayvolve cover is ideal for use in environments where gas or electric heating devices are not allowed.
Four sizes of our Rayvolve sleeves cover any common low voltage cable types from 10 mm² - 500 mm². Our Rayvolve Splice Cover sleeves feature a dual-wall design with an entrapped lubricant, making installation fast and simple. The elastomeric sleeve rolls onto the cable with minimal effort, even at temperatures below -25°C. The cable can be energized immediately after installation.
