Immersion & wet locations
Water-blocked core matrix and hydrolysis-resistant subsea jacketing withstand continuous deepwater hydrostatic pressure.
Product
UDA0103 / UDA0204 / UDA0104 3-Part & 4-Part Helically Cabled Surface-Demand Commercial Diving Umbilical (IMCA D 014 / D 078, 600 V, -30 °C to +70 °C, min. bend radius 8 × OD).
Typical values for this cable type, based on IMCA D 014 / IMCA D 078 / EN 12021 Diving Standard — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
UDA0103 / UDA0204 / UDA0104 3-Part & 4-Part Helically Cabled Surface-Demand Commercial Diving Umbilical (IMCA D 014 / D 078, 600 V, -30 °C to +70 °C, min. bend radius 8 × OD).
Water-blocked core matrix and hydrolysis-resistant subsea jacketing withstand continuous deepwater hydrostatic pressure.
Torque-balanced aramid or contra-helical steel armour supports vertical winch deployment without hockling.
Marine-grade outer sheath and armour package resist LARS sheave abrasion, UV exposure and salt-spray corrosion.
High tensile breaking strength supports underwater towing, ROV excursion and seabed plough/trencher duty.
Subsea umbilical and tow construction is not intended for high-cycle indoor factory drag chains.
