Mine roadway & tunnel wall hangers
Heavy 5GM3 PCP outer sheath withstands rock abrasion, mine water, hydraulic oil, and trailing mechanical abuse in harsh mine duty.
Product
2YSLGCGÖU low-capacitance screened mining data and control cable (DIN VDE 0250 / 0819, 300/500 V) with low-loss polyethylene ('2Y') core insulation, conductive rubber + tinned copper braid screen ('GCG'), and a heavy 5GM3 PCP outer jacket ('ÖU').
Typical values for this cable type, based on DIN VDE 0250 / DIN VDE 0819 / DIN VDE 0298-3 — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Select 2YSLGCGÖU where long-distance sensor telemetry, serial fieldbus, or VFD control signals must traverse high-EMI mining roadways, TBM umbilicals, or open-cast excavators.
Heavy 5GM3 PCP outer sheath withstands rock abrasion, mine water, hydraulic oil, and trailing mechanical abuse in harsh mine duty.
Low-dielectric-loss 2Y polyethylene insulation (εr ≈ 2.3) prevents pulse rounding and capacitive voltage drop on long TBM/conveyor runs.
Dual 'GCG' screening (semiconductive rubber layer + ≥ 80 % tinned copper braid) provides superior transfer impedance from kHz to MHz.
Not self-supporting for deep vertical mine shafts; use steel-core NTMTWÖU for vertical shaft suspension.
Use NTMTWÖU for vertical mine shaftsConstruction
DIN VDE 0250 construction: Class 5 copper conductors, 2Y low-capacitance PE core insulation, rubber inner sheath, conductive elastomer layer (C), tinned copper braid (G), and 5GM3 PCP jacket (ÖU).
| # | Layer | Material & reference |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fine-stranded copper (SL) | Flexible bare or tinned copper conductors (IEC 60228 / DIN VDE 0295 Class 5)Supple stranding for mobile mining machinery and reeling/festoon loops |
| 2 | Low-capacitance 2Y PE insulation | Low-permittivity polyethylene (2Y) core wall (numbered cores or DIN 47100 colour code)Cuts core-to-core capacitance by ~50 % vs PVC or EPR for clean long-line pulse transmission |
| 3 | Elastomer inner sheath (G) | Vulcanised rubber inner bedding sheath over the laid-up core bundleProvides a round, impact-absorbing cushion beneath the metallic screen |
| 4 | Conductive rubber + Sn-Cu braid (CG) | Semiconductive elastomer layer ('C') combined with braided tinned copper wires ('G', ≥ 80 % coverage)Eliminates screen-to-core capacitive spikes and suppresses broadband VFD/thyristor noise |
| 5 | 5GM3 polychloroprene sheath (ÖU) | Heavy-duty oil-resistant and flame-retardant PCP compound Type 5GM3 (black or yellow)Protects the low-capacitance data core against mine water, grease, and rock impact |
Screened low-capacitance mining control cable with numbered PE cores and GNYE earth
Fine-gauge mining telemetry, encoder, and serial bus cable with low mutual capacitance
