SynTherm® – Insulating Materials SynTherm® NPN/50

SynTherm® NPN/50 is a flexible 3-ply insulation consisting of a polyester film with a calandered Nomex® layer with yellow strips.

The proven dielectric properties of the polyester film and the excellent mechanical and thermal properties of the outer Nomex® layers result in a high performance insulating material. The ability of the outer layers to absorb impregnants results in exceptional bonding between all winding components.
