Its 8-layer construction comprises stranded copper conductor, pe core insulation, pe binder tape, copper tape screen, pe bedding, inner steel armour tape, outer steel armour tape, pvc-at outer sheath.

What is the minimum bending radius and installation temperature for CU-PE-CTS-PE-DSTA-PVC-AT Pilot?

The minimum installed bending radius for CU-PE-CTS-PE-DSTA-PVC-AT Pilot is 12 × OD across its continuous operating temperature range of -25 °C to +70 °C, ensuring mechanical and dielectric stability without conductor or insulation strain.

How are the concentric layers of CU-PE-CTS-PE-DSTA-PVC-AT Pilot arranged from inside to outside?

From inside to outside, the construction sequence is: (01) Stranded copper conductor (High-conductivity copper conductor per IEC 60502-1 / BS EN 50288-7); (02) PE core insulation (Extruded PE dielectric (individual core / group layer)); (03) PE binder tape (Helically applied pe binder tape); (04) Copper tape screen (Copper tape screen metallic electromagnetic screen (lapped tape)); (05) PE bedding (Extruded PE bedding protective layer (continuous layer)); (06) Inner steel armour tape (Inner steel armour tape mechanical protection (lapped tape)); (07) Outer steel armour tape (Outer steel armour tape mechanical protection (lapped tape)); (08) PVC-AT outer sheath (Extruded PVC-AT outer sheath protective layer (continuous layer)).

What factory test certificates are supplied with CU-PE-CTS-PE-DSTA-PVC-AT Pilot?

Every production drum or spool of CU-PE-CTS-PE-DSTA-PVC-AT Pilot undergoes routine conductor DC resistance, dimensional and dielectric/integrity testing per IEC 60502-1 / BS EN 50288-7, and is delivered with an EN 10204 3.1 factory test certificate.
