Application fit

Is WG / WG-D R-(N)TSCGEWOEU right for your machine?

WG and WG-D are engineered for standard-to-medium duty motorized medium-voltage cable reels (up to 120 m/min horizontal) on container cranes with low mounting heights (< 7 m), stacker/reclaimers, ship unloaders, and heavy mining equipment.

Motorised monospiral reel

Suitable

Primary duty: horizontal motorized monospiral and cylindrical MV reels up to 120 m/min with compact drum dimensions.

Cylindrical / multi-layer drum

Suitable

Cylindrical MV reeling drums with ≥ 10 × D bend radius per DIN VDE 0298-3 and DIN VDE 0298-4 layer derating.

Trailing & towing

Suitable

Heavy mining machines, stackers, and reclaimers with small-to-medium dynamic reeling loads and 20 N/mm² tensile capacity.

Festoon & line chain

With conditions

Permitted through at most 1 diversion roller assembly (≥ 20 × D S-curve spacing); for multi-pulley deflection paths select HVR / HVR-D.

FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

When should WG / WG-D be selected instead of HVR / HVR-D or WXG / WXG-D?
WG / WG-D is engineered for horizontal motorized reels up to 120 m/min with low-to-medium dynamic loads, low reel mounting heights (< 7 m on container cranes), and at most one diversion roller assembly. Because its compact core lay and double 5GM3/5GM5 sheath minimize outer diameter and weight, it allows smaller, more economical reel drums. For 180 m/min or multi-roller paths select HVR / HVR-D; for 240 m/min extra-heavy-duty reeling select WXG / WXG-D.
Why does page 1 of the legacy datasheet list +90 °C under flexing/fixed temperature while the technical table lists +80 °C?
+90 °C is the maximum permissible operating temperature at the conductor for 3GI3 HV-EPR insulation (with +250 °C short-circuit rating), whereas the permissible ambient air temperature is −35 °C to +80 °C during flexing and −50 °C to +80 °C when fixed, as confirmed in the full technical specification table.
What is the true protective earth cross-section on the WG-D 8.7/15 kV 95 mm² configuration?
The WG-D 8.7/15 kV 95 mm² cable has a 50 mm² split protective earth (3 × 95 + 2 × 50/2 + 12 FO), matching the WG-D 3.6/6 kV and 6/10 kV 95 mm² cables and DIN VDE 0250-813. The legacy table print '3x95+2x35/2+12FO' is a typographical error confirmed by the row's published copper weight of 3,197 kg/km.
What optical fibre types and counts are available in the WG-D hybrid series?
The WG-D standard range integrates 12 optical fibres in the third outer interstice (alongside two split earth conductors in the other two interstices), available in singlemode G9/125 µm, multimode G50/125 µm, or multimode G62.5/125 µm. Builds with 6, 18, or 24 optical fibres are also available on request.
