Fixed installation
Installed in refinery pipe racks, buried chemical trenches and ATEX hazardous-area cable trays (CEI 64-2 / EN 60079-14).
Product
Heavy-duty Italian petrochemical, refinery and industrial power cable (UG7OG7KNR with Class 2 copper / RG7OG7KNR with flexible Class 5 copper) built to CEI 20-13 with +90 °C High-Modulus EPR (G7 / HEPR) insulation, elastomeric inner sheath, concentric.
Typical values for this cable type, based on CEI 20-13 / CEI UNEL 35375 / CEI 20-22 II / IEC 60502-1 — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Specified across Italian and Mediterranean oil refineries, petrochemical complexes, ATEX Zone 1/2 hazardous areas, steel mills and offshore platforms where the cable requires both a metallic earth-fault screen ('K') and a hydrocarbon/oil-resistant Polychloroprene ('NR') outer sheath.
Installed in refinery pipe racks, buried chemical trenches and ATEX hazardous-area cable trays (CEI 64-2 / EN 60079-14).
Polychloroprene ('NR') elastomer jacket withstands aliphatic/aromatic hydrocarbons, lubricating oils, weathering and seawater.
Concentric copper screen ('K') provides a 360° low-impedance return path for VFD common-mode currents and instant earth-fault tripping.
Industrial distribution feeder; not intended for high-acceleration automated drag chains.
