Custom Cable Designs for IEC & US Applications

SPECIALTY HYBRID, FIBER OPTIC, COAX AND CONTROL WIRE CONSTRUCTIONS

Unique coaxial designs are manufactured to meet flow cell monitoring needs in the oil & gas industry. Equipment can be deployed around the world in hazardous areas so cable designs need to comply with EN 60079-14 and be suitable for operation temperatures between -50C and +130C. Meeting the requirements utilities high performance materials and a complex manufacture process to produce truly versatile cables meeting these tough demands.

Other specialty cables have been designed and manufactured with a composite Tri-Barrier system made from aluminium, HPDE and polyamide to provide Aliphatic & Aromatic hydrocarbon resistance. The Tri-Barrier system is lighter weight and has reduced diameters compared to traditional lead sheathed cables reducing installation times and offering space saving.

More and more data, coax and fibre optic cables are being used to provide high bandwidth and fast signal transmission in the entertainment suites of high end yachts and ships. Through consultation with the system designers it was established that several cable designs were required all of which incorporated Cat 5E, Cat 6, two RG6 coaxials and some proprietary control cables. Each design went through a sample production process and was fire tested to IEC 60332-3-24 to ensure it met the requirements for the vessels. Grouping all the cables into one jacketed composite design has reduced installation time, cost and damage often experienced when sensitive cables are used in harsh environments.
