Type Designation 07BN8-F

Standard EN 50525-2-21(VDE 0285-525-2-21):2011-01

Approval VDE Marks Approval for 07BN8-F; VDE- Info Test Report

Application Far East rubber-sheathed cables 07BN8-F are intended for connection of electrical equipment in
contaminated water and for medium mechanical stresses. Specially designed for the connection of
submersible pumps to a depth of approximately 200 metres.
Owing to the various (and frequently changing) substances of which the contaminated water is made up, the
cables may be used only in easily accessible areas that can be inspected (installation depth of approximately
10 m, as customarily encountered in sewage water tanks).
These cables are also suitable for use in process water, cooling water, mine surface water, rainwater and
combined waste water. They also can be used in groundwater and seawater; it is possible to impose less
stringent specifications in terms of accessibility and inspection.
If the water concerned is aggressive or composed of special substances, the cable's resistance properties
should be examined.
These cables can be used indoors, outdoors and in explosion-hazard areas.
If they are permanently installed in protective conduits or equipment, or e.g. in well installations or are used as
rotor circuit cables for motors, the cables may be operated with an AC voltage of up to 1000 V.
The permissible AC test voltage in connection with motor tests is 3.5 kV, the maximum test duration is 5
minutes. The insulating and sheath materials used allow a maximum temperature at the conductor of 90 °C. By
virtue of this characteristic, which is verified by a VDE- Info Test Report from the VDE Test and Certification
Institute, these cables may be used according to the specifications of the Federal Testing Laboratories (PTB)
for explosion-protected pumps.
