Basic Litz Wire

Litz wire

Litz wire is made of several strands of enameled copper wire that are twisted together. Litz Wire is used to reduce the losses caused by the skin-effect in high frequency applications. It can be served with fiber or silk, or taped with PI, PEN, PET film to get special properties. Compare with single wire in same cross section, the usage of Litz wire can reduce resistance and increase inductance, and increase the effectiveness and produce less heat. Meanwhile, Litz wire has much better mechanical flexibility.

Features:

 ● For High Frequency application, Litz wire can reduce Skin-effect, increase current density, reduce heat producing.

 ● The diameter of strand may be selected depend on the frequency of application.

 ● The Litz wire is more flexible and better anti-bending performance compare with solid wire.

Applications:

Inductive heating, magnetic components, power supply and power wireless transfer, transformer for high frequency, ultrasonic generators.
