TRATOS EV RF - REFLECTIVE and FLUORESCENT - high visibility cablesElectric Vehicle Charging Cable with High Visibility

Tratos has developed an innovative solution for electric vehicle charging cables. TRATOS EV-RFReflective + Fluorescent is a High Visibility. It ensures the highest level of safety by removing trip hazards associated with trailing cables.
At night, the cable is trailing over the pavement or the ground and in the dark people can hardly see a dull black sheathed cable, there is a real risk of people tripping or cars running over the cables and the consequences can be serious. TRATOS EV-RF – Reflective + Fluorescent has been specifically designed to reduce this risk and maintain safety.
It has a construction based on the heavy-duty combined power and control cables of IEC 62893 but with Tratos patent technology applied to the compound formulation itself, it will maintain its high visibility during the hours of darkness. Tratos has developed two separate yet complementary solutions:

R for Reflective

The Reflective stripe will reflect even a small source of light, like the car headlights or even the light of your smartphone, using a similar principle to that of High Visibility Jackets.

F for Fluorescent

The Fluorescent compound maintains its emission of fluorescent light for up to 8 hours, without the need for any external source of light or power … just the compound itself. Because the technology is in the compound formulation this ensures the durability of these properties without maintenance throughout the life of the cable.
