FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

Why combine VFD power cores and individually screened sensor pairs in one submersible cable?
Running a single hybrid umbilical eliminates a second cable entry gland on the submersible pump motor housing and prevents separate power and signal cables from tangling in the riser shaft. Individual copper screens on each monitoring pair block PWM inverter dv/dt spikes from corrupting millivolt PT100 temperature and moisture-probe signals.
What water depth and fluid conditions does the AD8 outer sheath withstand?
The pressure-extruded inner bedding and heavy-duty polychloroprene (5GM5) or polyurethane outer sheath are rated for AD8 permanent submersion down to 500 m depth (50 bar hydrostatic pressure) in municipal sewage, industrial effluent, groundwater, and abrasive mine-water sumps up to +70 °C.
Why are tinned copper conductors used instead of bare copper?
Class 5 tinned copper conductors resist hydrogen sulphide (H2S) corrosion common in anaerobic sewage wet wells and mine water, ensuring long-term contact reliability at both the potted motor resin joint and the surface VFD cabinet terminals.
How should the cable be supported in deep vertical pump risers?
Secure the cable to the vertical discharge column every 2 to 3 metres using wide stainless-steel cleats or elastomer-lined cable clamps so the continuous tensile stress on the copper conductors stays below 15 N/mm² per DIN VDE 0298-3.
