Applications
These heavy duty cables are designed for applications such as longwall shearers, continuous miners, loaders, drills, conveyors, pumps, and other mobile equipment requiring grounding conductors, where a ground check conductor, and metallic shielding are required.
Standards
ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC 58
ASTM B 172
ASTM B 33
CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 96
Construction
Conductors: Stranded annealed tinned copper conductor.
Insulation:EPR.
Insulation Shield:Non-conducting tape + Tinned copper/textile braid.
Ground Check Conductor:Tinned copper with a yellow insulation, located in the center of the cable.
Grounding Conductor:Tinned copper conductor.
Sheath: Reinforced extra-heavy-duty Chlorinated Polyethylene(CPE), black. Other sheath materials can be offered as an option.
Options:Other jacket materials such as CSP/PCP/NBR/PVC are available upon request.
Two-layer jacket with reinforcing fibre between the two layers can be offered as an option.
