Mining cables are often exposed to mechanical stress from heavy equipment like drills, shuttle cars, and loading machines. This high tensile strength cable is reinforced with materials that prevent snapping, tearing, or stretching under heavy loads, ensuring it remains intact and functional even under extreme conditions.
The flexible mining cable structure enables it to bend, twist, and flex without compromising electrical performance. This is crucial in mining where cables are often wound, unwound, and maneuvered around equipment.
This flexibility not only prolongs the life of the cable but also makes installation and handling much easier for mine workers.
Mining environments can be harsh, with the presence of oils, flames, UV rays, water, and abrasive surfaces. Our MP-GC mining cable is engineered to resist all of these factors, making it suitable for the rigorous demands of mining sites.
The Type MP-GC cable meets MSHA standards, meaning it complies with the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s safety requirements. This is a critical factor for mining companies focused on safety and compliance.
| Component | Material / Feature |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Stranded copper for high conductivity |
| Insulation | Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) |
| Ground Conductors | 3 ground conductors included for added safety |
| Jacket | Thermoset CPE for chemical and environmental resistance |
| Shielding | Designed to reduce electrical interference |
| Armor | Optional steel or nylon braid for extra durability |
This construction ensures that the cable can handle both the electrical and physical stresses typical in mining operations.
Underground Mining Equipment
The MP-GC cable is ideal for underground applications where ruggedness and flexibility are key. It provides power to heavy machinery used in extracting minerals from the earth, such as drills, hoists, and pumps.
Surface Mining Operations
Surface mining involves exposure to harsh weather conditions. This UV-resistant mining cable can handle direct sunlight, rain, and temperature fluctuations, making it perfect for surface mining equipment like draglines, loaders, and conveyor systems.
Mobile Mining Equipment
This 5kV flexible mining cable is also used with mobile machinery that moves frequently. Its flexible nature and high tensile strength make it ideal for equipment like shuttle cars and continuous miners.
| Feature | Type MP-GC Cable | Standard Mining Cable |
|---|---|---|
| Voltage Rating | Up to 5kV | Generally lower voltage |
| Flexibility | High; suitable for mobile equipment | Moderate; better for stationary uses |
| Tensile Strength | High; resists mechanical stress | Moderate; may degrade with movement |
| Resistance to Environmental Hazards | Excellent; oil, UV, flame, water resistant | Standard; may lack some resistances |
