These properties were measured once within PolyOne laboratory. However, it is mandatory that customers should conduct their own
evaluations to ensure any compliance on cable. Data are typical values and must not to be construed as specification limits.

Pre-Drying
ECCOHTM XLS CAT must not be predried. The aluminium foil lined bags should be kept field until usage.

Shelf life
ECCOH™XLS solutions are supplied in aluminium foil lined bags or octa-boxes and, based upon experience, this
ensures a shelf life of 6 months - providing the bag has not been opened and the material has been kept in a cool
(0°C < Temp. < 25°C) dry environment.

PolyOne advises customers to conduct a full homologation program on their final cable construction to
confirm acceptability.
