Cable ties are used in a variety of applications. Some are temporary and are disposed of after a few weeks; others are permanent and need to last for the entire operational life of the installation. This is particularly the case for solar plants or solar farms, which have an estimated lifespan of 15 to 25 years, where the fixing of cables is essential for proper performance.
But how long can a cable tie endure the extreme weather conditions of an outdoor installation, exposed to UV rays and other external factors? At Unex, we have been providing products for the installation, bundling, and fastening of cables in the photovoltaic sector, across various countries and applications, for more than 15 years. Therefore, we know that our Cable ties 22 HD (heavy duty) meet the stringent technical requirements for outdoor projects. They are engineered to last twice as long as our standard black cable ties... And that translates into many years of reliability.
In this context, it is crucial to consider a key factor when budgeting for a solar plant: the significant cost savings achieved by using durable cable ties. Employing products that can manage, protect, and bundle cables effectively for years (rather than months) is a valuable investment in these projects. This approach helps to avoid future maintenance costs, reduces the need for professional on-site visits, and minimises plant downtime.
Therefore, even though the initial investment may be higher, opting for high-quality cable ties will mean fewer replacements over the lifespan of the project. This results in a lower overall cost compared to using cheaper cable ties, which will last less and require frequent manpower for replacements.
The durability of our cable ties is well known. Whether for indoor or outdoor use, our solutions are recognised for their reliability. However, in this realm, the cable ties 22 HD have become the number one choice for securely bundling and fastening cables under challenging weather conditions. Here are some benefits and technical features of this product:
In summary, Unex cable ties 22 HD are the perfect solution for those who seek to save money while ensuring the highest quality and durability in their solar farm projects.
Why compromise the integrity of your installation with inferior options? Opt for cable ties that offer exceptional performance and a long service life. Trust Unex, trust in quality. They are only Unex if they carry the Unex brand.
