FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

What is the difference between RG and RG-D reeling cables?
Standard RG cables contain unscreened Class 5 tinned copper control or power cores (from 7 × 1.5 mm² and 4 G 2.5 mm² up to 4 G 35 mm²). RG-D composite cables combine unscreened 2.5 mm² power/control cores with 5 to 12 individually copper-braid-screened ('C') 1.0 mm² or 1.5 mm² signal cores inside the same polychloroprene sandwich sheath for EMI-sensitive encoder or bus feedback.
Why does page 1 of the PDF mention +90 °C ambient while the technical table states +80 °C?
Under DIN VDE 0250-814 and the reference reeling catalog, +90 °C is the maximum permissible operating temperature at the conductor for EPR (3GI3) insulation (with +200 °C short-circuit rating), whereas the permissible ambient air temperature is −25 °C to +80 °C in flexing service and −40 °C to +80 °C in fixed installation. Above +30 °C ambient, apply DIN VDE 0298-4 derating factors.
How is the maximum dynamic tensile load calculated for RG and RG-D cables?
The permitted pulling force in the dimensional table is calculated at 15 N/mm² of active copper cross-section in accordance with DIN VDE 0250-814 (ranging from 150 N on 4 G 2.5 up to 2,100 N on 4 G 35). For RG-D composite cables, only the unscreened 2.5 mm² cores carry the mechanical tensile rating so the individually screened signal cores remain strain-free.
When should I upgrade from RG / RG-D to RXG / RXG-D or RP / RP-D?
Choose RG / RG-D for horizontal monospiral and level-wind reels up to 120 m/min in rugged outdoor or chemical environments (including sulfur and urea). If your crane reel operates at up to 240 m/min, involves vertical spreader reeling, or requires 30 N/mm² tensile capacity and −35 °C cold flexibility, select RXG / RXG-D; if a halogen-free polyurethane jacket is preferred up to 80 m/min, select RP / RP-D.
