Braids RayBraid Tubular Braiding Tubular Braiding for the Electrical Screening of Wire Bundles Product Facts Screening for military harnesses ■ Easy removal from former ■ Minimum 90% optical coverage ■ Ray 101 and Ray 103 super flexible with high expansion ratios ■ To ease the assembly of hand built harnesses, TE manufactures a range of braids for the electrical screening of wire bundles. Types Operating Temperature Range Ray 90 (Tinned Copper Braid): Ray 90: up to 150˚C [302˚F] ■ Minimum 90% optical Ray 101: up to 150˚C [302˚F] coverage available in 10 different sizes from 3.0 to 30.0 mm supplied diameter. RayBraid is supplied on a tube former which facilitates assembly and is more robust than braid supplied in flattened form. TE also supplies connectors suitable for braid terminations. Ray 101 (Tinned Copper Braid): Applications ■ Minimum 93% maximum 100% optical coverage possess high usable expansion ratio (minimum 2:1). ■ Available in a wide range of sizes to cover 2.5 to 38.0 mm diameters. ■ Fully compatible with Tinel-Lock adapters for termination of the braid to associated connectors. Ray 103 (Nickel Copper Braid): 9 ■ Minimum 93% maximum 100% optical coverage possess high usable expansion ratio (minimum 2:1). Wire and Cable When stored under typical conditions of less than 30Â˚C and less than 70% relative humidity, the shelf life of the wire is effectively unlimited. Where the product contains a standard tin plated or bare copper conductor or braid there will be a progressive reduction in the solderability with increasing storage time. Under the conditions mentioned above, excellent solderability should be retained for about one year from manufacturing date, but if this is an important property, it should be checked before use. The suitability of the tin plated or bare copper conductor for use with crimped or welded termination techniques will not be affected by storage time. Ray 103: above 150˚C [302˚F] ■ Available in a wide range of sizes to cover 2.5 to 38.0 mm diameters. ■ Fully compatible with Silver and nickel plated conductors are essentially unaltered by normal storage.
