What governing standard and construction define YOTKGtsFtZnyn (YOTKGtsFtZnyn Steel-Tape Armoured Mining Optical Cable)?
YOTKGtsFtZnyn (YOTKGtsFtZnyn Steel-Tape Armoured Mining Optical Cable) is manufactured in accordance with PN-EN 60794-1-2 / IEC 60332-3-22 for Optical duty over -40 to +70 °C. Its 5-layer construction comprises Central FRP Rod (CSM), Loose Buffer Tubes (6×12F Gts) and Mining Flame-Retardant Sheath (yn).
What is the minimum bending radius and operating temperature range for YOTKGtsFtZnyn?
The minimum bending radius for YOTKGtsFtZnyn is 15 × OD across its continuous operating temperature range of -40 to +70 °C, ensuring mechanical and dielectric reliability in mining and heavy industrial service.
How are the concentric layers of YOTKGtsFtZnyn arranged from inside to outside?
From inside to outside, the construction sequence is: (01) Central FRP Rod (CSM) (Dielectric Fiber-Reinforced Plastic central strength member); (02) Loose Buffer Tubes (6×12F Gts) (SZ-stranded gel-filled PBT tubes (Red/Green marker + Natural tubes)); (03) Water-Blocking Tape & Black Inner Sheath (Longitudinal swellable tape + black flame-retardant PVC inner bedding); (04) Galvanized Steel Tape Armour (FtZn) (Double helically applied steel tapes (3500 N/100 mm crush resistance)); (05) Mining Flame-Retardant Sheath (yn) (Blue IEC 60332-3-22 Cat. A flame-retardant mining PVC outer jacket).
What factory test certificates are supplied with YOTKGtsFtZnyn?
Every production drum of YOTKGtsFtZnyn undergoes routine conductor resistance/continuity, high-voltage dielectric and dimensional testing per PN-EN 60794-1-2 / IEC 60332-3-22, and is delivered with an EN 10204 3.1 factory test certificate.
