Fixed installation
Galvanized round steel wire armour ('Fo') supports vertical shaft cleats and resists axial tension in subsiding mining ground.
Product
YKGYFoyn / YKGYFoyn-żo Steel-Wire Armoured PVC Mining Cable is a Polish-standard (PN-G-90006) 0.6/1 kV underground mine shaft, inclined drift, and high-convergence roadway power and control cable constructed with Class 5/2 copper conductors ('G', with or
Typical values for this cable type, based on PN-G-90006 / PN-E-90401 (YKGYFoyn / YKGYFoyn-żo 0.6/1 kV Steel-Wire Armoured Mining Cable) — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Engineered for vertical mine shafts, steep inclined drifts (up to 90°), subsiding longwall roadways, and heavy haulage galleries where the cable must withstand both longitudinal tensile loads and
Galvanized round steel wire armour ('Fo') supports vertical shaft cleats and resists axial tension in subsiding mining ground.
Available with ('YKGYFoyn-żo') or without ('YKGYFoyn-o') a green-yellow protective core to match IT/TN mine earthing.
Galvanized armour wires bedded in extruded inner PVC and jacketed in heavy 'yn' mining PVC resist wet shaft water.
Construction
Multi-wire stranded copper conductors (PN-EN 60228 Class 5 or Class 2, 2.5 to 150 mm²), PVC core insulation ('Y'), extruded PVC inner
