Product Description


Our Basic Litz Wire is a specialized conductor designed to minimize energy loss in high-frequency applications by reducing the skin effect and proximity effect. The wire consists of multiple fine copper strands, each individually insulated with a thin layer of enamel or film, twisted or braided together in a specific configuration. This construction ensures that each strand carries an equal portion of the current, distributing the load and reducing eddy current losses.


The insulation between strands is typically made from materials like polyurethane, polyester, or PTFE, chosen for their high dielectric strength and thermal resistance. The wire can be formed into various shapes, such as round or rectangular, and is available in different strand counts and gauges to suit specific frequency ranges and power requirements.


Features


Reduced Skin Effect: By using multiple fine strands, the wire effectively increases the conductor's surface area at high frequencies, minimizing current concentration near the surface.

Proximity Effect Mitigation: The twisted strand configuration reduces magnetic coupling between strands, decreasing energy loss caused by adjacent conductors.

High Thermal Efficiency: The thin insulation layers allow for efficient heat dissipation, making the wire suitable for applications with high power density.

Flexible Construction: The stranded design provides excellent flexibility, enabling easy winding around cores in inductors, transformers, and motors.

Customizable Strand Configuration: We offer different lay lengths and strand counts to optimize performance for specific frequency bands, from kHz to MHz ranges.


Applications


Power Electronics: Used in high-frequency transformers, inductors, and resonant circuits in inverters, converters, and switch-mode power supplies.

Audio Equipment: Ideal for speaker cables and audio transformers, where minimizing signal loss and distortion at audio frequencies (20 Hz–20 kHz) is crucial.

Wireless Devices: Suitable for antennas, inductive charging coils, and RF components, where high-frequency performance and efficiency are essential.

Electric Motors and Generators: Used in slot windings of high-speed motors, reducing losses and improving overall efficiency in electric vehicles and industrial machinery.


FAQ


Q: What frequency range is the Basic Litz Wire optimized for?

A: Standard configurations are optimized for 10 kHz to 1 MHz, but we can customize designs for lower or higher frequencies upon request.

Q: How does Litz wire differ from regular stranded wire?

A: Litz wire has individual strand insulation to prevent eddy currents between strands, while regular stranded wire only has a single outer insulation layer, making it less effective at high frequencies.

Q: Can the wire be used for direct current (DC) applications?

A: Yes, though the benefits of Litz wire are most pronounced in AC applications. It can still be used for DC, providing improved flexibility and durability.

Q: What is the temperature rating of the insulation?

A: Polyurethane-insulated strands rated for 130°C (Class B), while PTFE-insulated variants can handle up to 200°C (Class H). Specify your temperature requirements for the best insulation choice.
