Certifications and Approvals: Fire Certificate of Russia Federation

One of the standout features of this cable is its compliance with GOST-R, GOST-K, and GOST-B standards, along with the Fire Certificate of the Russian Federation.

These certifications are essential for industries operating in Russia, ensuring that the PROTOLON (SMK)-LWL reeling cable can be used in environments where fire resistance and safety compliance are critical.

The fire certificate demonstrates that the cable can maintain operational integrity even under the threat of fire, making it a safe choice for high-risk environments like seaports, mining facilities, and oil refineries.

Cable Design and Features

This cable’s unique design enables it to handle both mechanical and environmental stresses, making it a preferred choice for industries with harsh operational conditions.

Below are some of the primary design features that set it apart from other reeling cables.

Conductor and Earth Conductor

The conductor is made of electrolytic copper, which is tinned and very finely stranded to Class FS standards as per DIN VDE 0295. This design helps in maintaining flexibility while offering superior current-carrying capabilities.

Insulation

The cable features PROTOLON HS insulation, a special compound made of high-quality EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber). This compound exhibits improved mechanical and electrical characteristics, meeting the requirements of DIN VDE 0207, Part 20.

This robust insulation layer ensures that the cable can withstand high-voltage applications, mechanical impacts, and even water ingress, thus making it ideal for outdoor usage.

Optical Fiber Properties

One of the key benefits of the PROTOLON (SMK)-LWL cable is its integrated fiber-optic element, which allows for trouble-free data transmission even at high data rates.

The fiber is designed to offer minimal attenuation, providing reliable communication over long distances, even in industrial settings where mechanical stress can be a concern.

Fiber type options include G62.5/125μm, G50/125μm, and E9/125μm, offering flexibility for different application needs.

Attenuation levels at critical wavelengths (850nm, 1310nm, and 1550nm) are kept within industry standards, making it a reliable choice for long-distance data transmission.

The fiber covering is designed using ETFE material, which ensures protection and longevity in demanding environments.

Torsion Protection and Inner Sheath

The anti-torsion reinforced braid is made of polyester threads, providing the cable with superior torsional resistance. This is especially useful in applications where the cable is subject to frequent twisting and movement in multiple directions.

The inner sheath features a double-layer sandwich structure, made from special EPR compound, which also serves as a water barrier.

Outer Sheath

The outer sheath is designed using PROTOFIRM compound, a high-grade rubber known for its abrasion resistance. This allows the cable to withstand frequent contact with rollers and other mechanical surfaces without compromising its integrity.

The sheath is also resistant to oil, UV radiation, ozone, and extreme weather conditions, ensuring the cable remains functional even in harsh outdoor environments.

Electrical and Mechanical Performance

Voltage Ratings

The PROTOLON (SMK)-LWL reeling cable is rated for voltages ranging from:

3.6/6 kV

6/10 kV

8.7/15 kV

12/20 kV

These voltage ranges ensure that the cable is versatile enough to be used in a variety of industrial applications. It also adheres to DIN VDE 0298, Part 4, offering higher current-carrying capabilities in specific cases.

Tensile and Dynamic Load Capabilities

The cable can handle a maximum tensile load of up to 20 N/mm², with the ability to tolerate up to 30 N/mm² during acceleration, according to DIN VDE standards. This makes it suitable for high-speed applications where mechanical loads are a concern.

Its dynamic load capacity ensures that the cable can be used for continuous reeling and unreeling operations without compromising its longevity or performance.

Installation Tips and Considerations

Fiber-Optic Installation Installation of fiber-optic cables, especially in reeling systems, requires special care.

Given the complexity of handling fiber-optic elements, preparation of the fiber-optics is best performed by professionals with experience in the field. Special tools are required to ensure the fiber remains undamaged during installation.
