Reeling Flat Cables with/without Integrated Optical Fibers 3.6/6 (7.2) kV 6/10 (12) kV 8.7/15 (18) kV
Applications
Flexible flat reeling cable for data transmission and for energy supply. Especially for high and extreme mechanical stress used in Ship to Shore Cranes (STS), Rail Mounted Gantry Cranes (RMG) and other heavy mobile equipment.
Design
1. Conductor : Flexible, plain copper, “FSC” better than IEC 60228 class 5
2. Insulation : Inner semi-conductive layer New special insulation compound “RHEYCLEAN” based on EPDM, better than DIN VDE 207 part 20.
Outer semi-conductive layer, “RHEYSTRIP”, easy strip design
3. Protective earth conductor Individually concentric mixed braid of tinned copper wires and high-tech polyamid yarn
4. Optical Fibre : Fibre diameter 9/125 μm; 50/125 μm; 62.5/125 μm
5. Outer sheath : Special rubber compound; Colour: red
