POWERMINETM (N)TMCGEH3S 6/10 kV

Trailing cables

Description
Application
POWERMINE® (N)TMCGEH3S was developed for use in open pit mines for
operation under difficult requirements.
This polyurethane sheathed version - with optimized wall thicknesses - can be
used for laying along conveyor belts in open pit mines, on stackers/reclaimers
e.g. in coal bunker, on shiftable belt conveyor systems, on spreaders and auxiliary
equipment like hopper cars, belt wagons or trippers, on material handling
equipment.
Design
Power Conductors
Conductor: Flexible, stranded, tinned annealed copper in accordance with DIN
VDE 0295 / IEC 60228 class 5.
Insulation: triple extruded consisting of: Standards
• Inner semi-conductive stress control layer International Nexans specification
• Elastomeric insulation of dielectric and thermal high graded, ozone-resistant National DIN VDE 0298 part 4;
EPR compound acc. to DIN VDE 0207 part 20 DIN VDE 0298 part 3
• Outer semi-conductive insulation, easy-strip (thermo-strip)
Shield: Mixed braid with tinned copper wires and synthetic threads Colour code:
black, white and red
Ground conductors
Flexible, stranded, tinned, annealed bare, copper
Ground check conductor
Conductor: Flexible, stranded, tinned, annealed copper class 5
Insulation: Hytrel colour: yellow
Cabling
The three phase conductors are stranded with two groundings and the ground
check conductor in the interstices with a left hand lay.
Jacket
TPU, abrasion and impact resistant, good elastic recovery, tear and kick-resistant,
oil and grease resistant, hydrolytic stable, colour: orange,
