Application fit

Is WGF / WGF-D (N)TSFLCGEWOEU right for your machine?

WGF and WGF-D are flat medium-voltage reeling cables engineered specifically for motorized monospiral reels with narrow installation width and continuous bending in ONE PLANE ONLY (up to 120 m/min) on stacker/reclaimers and bulk handling machinery, including aggressive urea and sulfur environments.

Motorised monospiral reel

Suitable

Primary duty: motorized monospiral reels with limited installation width and continuous flexing in ONE PLANE ONLY up to 120 m/min.

Cylindrical / multi-layer drum

Suitable

Monospiral flat-cable drums with minimum bend diameter D = 1.5 × flat cable height (d) in a single plane.

Trailing & towing

Suitable

Resistant to sulfur, urea, oil, ozone, UV, and moisture for stockyard and chemical bulk-handling machines.

Festoon & line chain

With conditions

Suitable for heavy single-plane loop festoons; never bend across the flat width or route through S-curves in two planes.

Vertical / spreader reel

Not suitable

Not suitable for multi-plane deflection or S-bend routing; for multi-plane reeling select round WG / WG-D, HVR / HVR-D, or WXG / WXG-D.

  • Typical values for this cable type; dimensions and weights for your order are confirmed in the quotation.
  • Geometry d × B gives flat cable height d (min–max mm) and flat cable width B (min–max mm). Continuous flexing is permitted in ONE PLANE ONLY (bending over height d).
  • In the legacy WGF table (page 2), cable weights were printed with truncated trailing zeros after the German thousands dot (e.g. '3.25' for 3.250 = 3,250 kg/km and '6.7' for 6.700 = 6,700 kg/km); all weights are normalized to kg/km.
  • On the 70 mm² WGF rows, the legacy table prints '3 x 25 / 3E' while its 2,573 kg/km copper mass (identical to WGF-D 3 × 70 + 4 × 35/4E) and DIN VDE 0250-813 correspond to a 35 mm² total earth cross-section (3 × 35/3E).

FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

When should a flat WGF / WGF-D medium-voltage cable be used instead of a round (N)TSCGEWOEU cable?
WGF / WGF-D is designed for motorized monospiral reels with narrow axial space where the cable winds in a single vertical spiral layer and bends in ONE PLANE ONLY at speeds up to 120 m/min. Because flexing occurs across the thin cable height d (24.5–40.3 mm) rather than a large round diameter, the minimum bend diameter is just D = 1.5 × d. It must not be bent across its width B or routed through multi-plane S-curves.
Is WGF / WGF-D suitable for fertilizer, urea, and sulfur bulk-handling stockyards?
Yes. Unlike standard polychloroprene round reeling cables, the WGF / WGF-D 5GM5 elastomer outer sheath is specifically formulated and rated for resistance to both urea and sulfur, as well as ozone, UV, oil, and moisture, making it ideal for stacker/reclaimers in fertilizer and chemical bulk terminals.
Why does page 4 of the legacy datasheet print '600/1000 V' and '8700/1500 V' in the voltage summary?
Those numbers ('600/1000V', '8700/1500V', '1200/2000V') are a typographical corruption in the legacy catalog's page-27 summary table. As confirmed on page 1, in the dimensional tables (3.6/6 kV, 6/10 kV, and 8.7/15 kV), and by the AC test voltages (11 kV, 17 kV, and 24 kV per DIN VDE 0250-813), WGF / WGF-D is a medium-voltage cable rated at U0/U = 3.6/6 kV, 6.0/10.0 kV, and 8.7/15.0 kV.
Why do the WGF table rows print weights such as 3.25 to 8.0 while WGF-D prints 3.700 to 6.940?
In the German-formatted source table, a period was used as the thousands separator for kg/km (so 3.700 means 3,700 kg/km), and trailing zeros were accidentally dropped on the WGF page ('3.25' for 3.250 = 3,250 kg/km and '8.0' for 8.000 = 8,000 kg/km). All 21 configurations have total weights between 3,250 and 8,000 kg/km.
