OS EMC Submersible cable

For making connections to electrical equipment used in waste-water environments and subject to medium mechanical stress. Especially for frequency converter controlled AC drives and if considerable demands in respect of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) according to the EMC directive imposes.

For an effective shielding both ends of cable must have a good shield contact to ground. For connection with 1-level frequency converter, rated outputvoltage max. 690 V.

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 10m, 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. Under certain circumstances they can be suitable for groundwater and seawater; it is possible to impose less stringent specifications in terms of accessibility and inspection. In such cases the cable can be at depths up to 500m.

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, in explosion-hazard areas, in fire-hazard locations, on construction sites, in open-cut mining and in quarries.

In industry and in agricalture. They can also be permanently installed, e.g. on plaster, on excavators or on hoisting gear. If they are permanently installed in protective conduits or equipment, or e.g in well installations or used as rotor circuit cables for motors.

The permissible AC test voltage in connection with motor tests is 3 kV , the maximum test duration is 3 minutes.

Specifically  designed for pumps in waste-water under medium mechanical stress.
