for NBC contamination survivability of electrical power and
signal distribution systems.
Three system performance levels are available to choose the
best suited material system for the application.
Chemical agent tested desorption and hazard contact area
data available for NBC survivability modeling
Tested to SC-X15111 and SC-X15112 fluid resistance require-
ments for commonly used military vehicle fluids
Rugged materials to protect wires during the harness pro-
duction, installation, use, and storage

Tyco Electronics introduces Raychem integrated 700 Series systems for harnessing applications requiring Nuclear Biological and
Chemical contamination survivability (NBCCS). 700 Series NBC Survivable Systems are System 770, System 780, and System
790. Each of these systems consist of Raychem heat-shrinkable tubing, molded parts, wire, adhesives, adapters, and other
components necessary to build harnesses from one connector side to the other. Components in each system are specifically
designed for application environments they may be exposed to. Example of these environmental elements may include common
vehicular or aerospace fluids, extreme high or low temperatures, or mechanical abuse during installation, operation, and storage.
Raychem NBCCS system materials have been tested to chemical agents as specified in the army test procedures (TOP 8-2-511) for
2 2
both interior (1g/m ) and exterior (10g/m ) exposure levels. Super Tropical Bleach (STB) and Decontamination Standard #2 (DS2),
respectively, were used per TOP 8-2-511 to decontaminate test specimens. The components used in NBCCS systems must
survive normal operational conditions and environmental elements just as importantly as the NBC contaminants and
decontamination processes. Raychem 700 systems have been tested under both NBC warfare and conventional environmental
conditions and have been shown to function satisfactorily.
Temperature Ratings System 770 -55C to 125C [Heat-shrinkable part recovery temperature: 150C]
System 780 -55C to 175C [Heat-shrinkable part recovery temperature: 180C]
System 790 -65C to 200C [Heat-shrinkable part recovery temperature: 220C]

* Components in these or other Raychem harnessing systems may be mixed to form a hybrid system. A hybridized system is useful
when the harness passes through different temperature or environmental zones or a certain property of another system is necessary to
meet overall harness performance requirements. When a hybridized system is used, the user must verify the compatibility and
suitability of components selected for the hybridized system.
** S1264 is a two part thermoset adhesive. This is room temperature curable. S1255-04 is one-part thermoset tape adhesive. Oven
cure is required for this adhesive.
