Introducing Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O 0.6/1 kV (600/1000V) REELING VDE CABLES: Engineered for Performance in Extreme Conditions

In today's fast-paced industrial landscape, terminal operators and other heavy-duty machinery users need high-performance products that can withstand the rigors of demanding environments.

The Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O 0.6/1 kV (600/1000V) REELING VDE CABLES are designed specifically for this purpose. These cables are built to deliver exceptional flexibility, durability, and performance in temperatures ranging from -35°C to +80°C, making them ideal for reeling and unreeling operations under challenging conditions.

Built to Withstand Harsh Environments

The Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O is not your average cable. It is designed to handle the harshest environmental factors, whether it’s freezing cold, intense heat, or heavy mechanical stress. This cable is DIN VDE 0250-814 compliant, meaning it adheres to stringent safety and performance standards, giving you peace of mind.

With its flexible design, it can easily cope with frequent directional changes and heavy mechanical stress, making it ideal for industries where cables are constantly reeled and unreeled, such as in mining, ship-to-shore cranes, and various port terminal applications.

Understanding the Model Letters: What Does it Mean?

Let’s break down the model letters of this cable to give you a better understanding of what makes it special:

CORDAFLEX: This signifies that the cable is flexible, designed for dynamic applications like reeling, and is engineered for durability.

(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O:

(SMK) stands for heavy-duty reeling cables made for mobile equipment.

(N)SHTOEU signifies a reeling cable with robust insulation and screening, designed for reeling applications in tough industrial settings.

J/O refers to the core identification system: J means the cable has an earth conductor, and O means the cable lacks an earth conductor.

Designed for Various Applications

The versatility of the Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O cable means it can be used in a wide range of applications:

Port terminals: These cables are perfect for heavy-duty applications such as cranes and ship loaders.

Mining: The robust and flexible design makes them suitable for harsh underground environments.

Outdoor industrial setups: With its weather resistance and UV protection, this cable thrives in outdoor setups exposed to varying weather conditions.

Mobile equipment: The cable can easily withstand the wear and tear of constant movement in mobile reeling operations.

Thermal Capabilities: Built to Handle Extreme Temperatures

When it comes to performance in varying temperatures, this cable doesn’t disappoint. The thermal parameters are as follows:

Maximum operating temperature of the conductor: 90°C

Maximum short-circuit temperature: 250°C

Ambient temperature for fixed installation: min -50°C, max +80°C

Ambient temperature in fully flexible operation: min -35°C, max +80°C

These numbers indicate that the Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O cable can handle both the coldest and hottest environments without compromising performance.

Whether you are operating in a refrigerated port or in the scorching heat of an open mine, this cable has you covered.

Mechanical Strength: Tough on the Inside

In addition to being thermally resilient, this cable is mechanically robust. It can handle high mechanical stress, making it suitable for applications that require constant movement or frequent directional changes. Let’s look at some of the mechanical parameters:

Maximum tensile load on the conductor: 30 N/mm²

Bending radii: According to DIN VDE 0298 part 3

Core identification: Earth conductor is green-yellow colored, power and control cables have numbers printed in black, ensuring easy identification.

These mechanical attributes ensure that the Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O cable remains strong and intact, even in high-stress conditions.

Electrical Strength: Engineered for Reliable Power Transmission

This cable’s electrical parameters make it an ideal choice for reeling operations that require reliable power transmission, even in extreme conditions. Some of the key electrical features include:

Rated voltage: 0.6/1 kV (600/1000V)

Max. permissible operating voltage:

AC: 0.7/1.2 kV

DC: 0.9/1.8 kV

AC test voltage (main cores): 3.5 kV (5 Min.)

Data transmission capabilities: Options for ASI-Bus, Profibus, CAN-Bus, and Industrial Ethernet, along with fiber optics for transmitting all bus protocols.

With these specifications, the cable can handle high voltages and provide stable power transmission across long distances, making it suitable for large-scale operations such as in ports, mines, and construction sites.

Chemical Resistance: Designed for Tough Environments

The Type CORDAFLEX(SMK)-(N)SHTOEU-J/-O cable is also engineered to withstand a variety of chemical exposures. Its chemical parameters include:

Resistance to oil: Acc. to DIN EN 60811-404; DIN VDE 0473-811-404, paragraph 10

Weather resistance: Unrestricted use outdoors and indoors, resistant to ozone, UV, and moisture.

Water resistance: Verified through long-term tests.

Whether it’s oil exposure in a factory or harsh outdoor weather conditions, this cable will stay strong and perform optimally.
