Fixed installation
Flexible Class 5 stranding simplifies routing between flameproof gate-end boxes and stationary mining drives.
Product
YnOGYek Cable is a Polish-standard (PN-G-90006) 0.6/1 kV screened flexible underground mining power and control cable combining Class 5 flexible copper conductors ('G'), PVC core insulation ('Y'), an extruded inner PVC bedding, an overall concentric copper
Typical values for this cable type, based on PN-G-90006 / ZN-TF (YnOGYek 0.6/1 kV Screened Flexible Mining Cable) — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Engineered for underground coal and copper mine machinery interconnections, VFD motor feeds, and gassy roadway circuits where an overall copper fault screen ('ek') is required to trigger
Flexible Class 5 stranding simplifies routing between flameproof gate-end boxes and stationary mining drives.
Concentric copper screen ('ek') provides low-impedance earthing and EMI containment for VFD and telemetry circuits.
Inner PVC bedding and outer Yn mining PVC sheath protect the copper screen against saline mine moisture.
Suitable for semi-stationary flexing; where extra-flexible braided elastomeric screening is needed select YnOGYekm.
