TL;DR: This 28-second (0:28) video inspects our TEBAOFLEX® 0.6/1 kV (600V/1000V) FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1x10 mm² coaxial screened cable built to IEC 60228 Class 5 (2026) and IEC 60502-1. It pairs live workshop extrusion, meter printing (0172M to 0223M), drum spooling, and a 1:1 macro cross-section (0:00 to 0:01, 0:06.5 to 0:11.5, and 0:19.5 to 0:23.5) with 3D festoon, drag-chain, and 5-layer cutaway schematics. Built for 200 m/min travel, 8 x D mobile bending, 15 N/mm² (150 N) dynamic tension, and ±25°/m torsion, its dual PUR-HF sheaths and min. 80% tinned copper wire braid (TCWB) per EN 50289-1-6 (2026) shield VFD drives from -40 °C to +80 °C mobile ambient temperatures (+90 °C core limit).
On rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMGs), ship-to-shore (STS) booms, and fast gantries, single-core power leads face two constant hazards. First, running at 200 m/min in 8 x D drag chains or festoon loops cracks stiff PVC jackets and wears unbedded shields. Second, fast switching from variable-frequency drives (VFDs) sends electromagnetic interference (EMI) into nearby encoder and fiber lines. This video page pairs our 28-second workshop and 3D walkthrough of the PUR-C-HF EMC Festoon Cable (1x10 mm²) with DIN VDE 0298-4 ampacity tables. You also get a buyer QA checklist.
What Does the 28-second PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² Video Show?
The 28-second video is split into four clear chapters so crane engineers and buyers can check both dynamic routing and real factory build quality. Rather than mixing animation with unverified claims, the video separates live workshop footage from 3D mechanical schematics.

A PUR-C-HF cable is a heavy-duty, halogen-free polyurethane (PUR-HF) insulated and double-sheathed flexible power cable with a tinned copper wire braid (TCWB) electromagnetic screen (-C-). It is built for high-speed festoon trolleys and articulated drag chains. Unlike basic PVC or unscreened rubber cords, it combines low-smoke halogen-free fire safety (IEC 60754-1) with superior polyurethane cut, oil, and hydrolysis resistance.

Engineering Boundary Note (Video Scope & Temperature Ratings): Chapters 01 (0:01 to 0:06.5) and 03 (0:11.5 to 0:19.5) use 3D animations to illustrate internal layer order and crane kinematics. Chapters 02 (0:06.5 to 0:11.5) and 04 (0:19.5 to 0:23.5) show authentic, unedited TEBAOFLEX workshop production and physical specimen cuts. The opening card (0:00) cites -40 °C to +90 °C, which is the maximum conductor operating temperature. The Chapter 04 profile (0:20) specifies -40 °C to +80 °C, which is the mobile ambient flexing range for the PUR-HF jacket under DIN VDE 0298-4.
How Do the 5 Coaxial Layers Stop EMI and Drag Chain Fatigue?
Single-core screened cables fail in fast drag chains when the metal braid rubs directly against the core insulation. Within a few hundred thousand flex cycles, the braid wires saw through the dielectric wall. As shown in Chapter 03 (0:11.5 to 0:19.5) and verified in the Chapter 04 macro specimen cut (0:20), our PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² stops internal wear using a 5-layer coaxial sandwich design.
A tinned copper wire braid (TCWB) screen is a woven coaxial metallic shield formed by counter-revolving carriers of tinned soft copper wires around an inner elastomer bedding sheath. It achieves at least 80% optical coverage per EN 50289-1-6 (2026) to contain high-frequency electromagnetic interference (EMI) and fault currents. Tinning each wire per ASTM B33 prevents copper oxide build-up in humid coastal ports.
Each of the five concentric layers visible in the 0:19 stepped cutaway performs a specific job.
- Layer 05: 1x10 mm² Class 5 Extra-Fine Stranded Copper Core (0:14 to 0:19). We strand fine plain copper wires (max. 0.21 mm wire diameter per IEC 60228 Class 5) with a short lay pitch. In the 0:20 real macro end-face photo, the compact copper core shows zero bird-caging and keeps DC resistance at 20 °C at or below 1.91 Ω/km.
- Layer 04: 0.6/1 kV Halogen-Free Insulation + Non-Woven Textile Wrap (0:14 to 0:19). A white halogen-free elastomer wall provides a 3.5 kV AC (5-minute) test margin. Over the white insulation, a white non-woven tape wrap (visible as the stepped collar between Layer 04 and Layer 03 at 0:17 and 0:19) creates a dry slip plane during 8 x D bending.
- Layer 03: Flame-Retardant PUR-HF Inner Bedding Sheath (0:14 to 0:19). Instead of braiding directly over the insulation, we extrude a black halogen-free polyurethane (PUR-HF) inner sheath. This bedding layer absorbs pinch loads from drag-chain crossbars and stops the TCWB braid wires from cutting into the 0.6/1 kV insulation.
- Layer 02: Min. 80% Tinned Copper Wire Braid (TCWB) Screen (0:14 to 0:19). We weave the tinned copper braid at an optimized pitch angle (55° to 60°) so the sleeve flexes smoothly at 8 x D and ±25°/m torsion. It delivers low-inductance shielding (150 kHz to 30 MHz) for VFD motor leads, braking choppers, and earthing jumpers.
- Layer 01: Outer PUR-HF Polyurethane Jacket (0:12 to 0:19). An ether-based, halogen-free, flame-retardant polyurethane (TMPU per DIN EN 50525-2-21) jacket protects the TCWB screen. Ether-grade PUR-HF resists saltwater hydrolysis, cutting oils, solvents, and alkalis far better than ester polyurethane or PVC.
How Do Overhead Festoon Loops Compare with 8xD Drag Chains at 200 m/min?
In Chapter 01 (0:01 to 0:06.5), the video shows two primary crane systems: Mechanism 01 (High-Speed Overhead Festoon Trolley Systems) and Mechanism 02 (Articulated Drag Chains). Both systems travel at up to 200 m/min, but they place very different mechanical loads on a single-core 1x10 mm² cable.
Dynamic tensile load (15 N/mm²) is the maximum allowable axial pulling stress on the active copper cross-section of a flexible crane cable during trolley acceleration and loop motion under DIN VDE 0298-3. For a 1x10 mm² core, a 15 N/mm² limit equals a maximum dynamic pulling force of 150 N (15.3 kgf) per cable.
When installing parallel 1x10 mm² single-core PUR-C-HF cables (such as 3 x 1x10 mm² phase lines plus 1 x 1x10 mm² PE), field crews should follow the layout rules below.
| Design Parameter | Mechanism 01: Overhead Festoon Trolley Loops | Mechanism 02: Articulated Drag Chain (e-chain) | Engineering Mitigation Built into PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² |
|---|---|---|---|
| Max Travel Speed | Up to 200 m/min (3.33 m/s) | Up to 200 m/min (3.33 m/s) | Low-friction matte PUR-HF outer jacket stops stick-slip jerking. |
| Governing Bend Radius | 6 x D to 8 x D at trolley saddle (60 to 80 mm) | 8 x D minimum chain bend radius (78 mm) | Inner textile slip wrap + PUR-HF inner bedding prevent core buckling. |
| Primary Mechanical Stress | Axial inertia jerk (max. 15 N/mm² / 150 N) + loop sway torsion (±25°/m) | Sliding abrasion against chain crossbars + radial pinch | Ether-grade PUR-HF jacket keeps abrasion loss below 50 mm³ (ISO 4649). |
| Single-Core Grouping Rule | Clamp in single-layer flat saddles or trefoil elastomer clamps | Use vertical chain separators every 1 to 2 cores with 10% clearance | Stops adjacent single-core cables from twisting over each other. |
| TCWB Screen Grounding | Bond 360° EMC glands at both terminal boxes (up to 15 m loop) | Bond 360° brass/nickel EMC glands at drive cabinet and carriage | Contains high-dv/dt VFD switching noise and carries fault current. |

How Do You Size 1x10mm² PUR-C-HF Ampacity and Pulling Tension?
While the 28-second video covers mechanical ratings (200 m/min, 8 x D, 15 N/mm²), electrical engineers also need ampacity and voltage-drop numbers to size 1x10 mm² feeders. Under DIN VDE 0298-4 and IEC 60364-5-52, a 90 °C 1x10 mm² flexible single-core cable has a base ampacity (I_z) of 73 A to 80 A in 30 °C free air. It carries 73 A when 3 cores touch on a saddle, or 80 A when spaced by one cable diameter (1 × D).
Inside an enclosed drag chain or a multi-tier festoon saddle at high port temperatures (40 °C to 55 °C), you must apply both the ambient thermal factor (k₁) and the grouping factor (k₂). The derated current is I_actual = I_z (30 °C) × k₁ × k₂.
Ampacity Derating & Voltage Drop Table (1x10 mm², 90 °C Core Rating)
| Ambient Temp (T_a) | Thermal Factor (k₁ per VDE 0298-4) | Single Core in Free Air (k2 = 1.00) | 3 Cores Touching in Festoon Saddle (k2 = 0.87) | 3 Cores in Enclosed Drag Chain (k2 = 0.80) | 3-Phase Voltage Drop per 50 m Run at I_actual (cos φ = 0.85) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30 °C | 1.00 | 80.0 A | 69.6 A | 64.0 A | 11.6 V (2.90% of 400 V). |
| 35 °C | 0.96 | 76.8 A | 66.8 A | 61.4 A | 11.1 V (2.78% of 400 V). |
| 40 °C | 0.91 | 72.8 A | 63.3 A | 58.2 A | 10.5 V (2.63% of 400 V). |
| 45 °C | 0.87 | 69.6 A | 60.6 A | 55.7 A | 10.1 V (2.52% of 400 V). |
| 50 °C | 0.82 | 65.6 A | 57.1 A | 52.5 A | 9.5 V (2.38% of 400 V). |
| 55 °C | 0.76 | 60.8 A | 52.9 A | 48.6 A | 8.8 V (2.20% of 400 V). |
We calculated this methodology using 1x10 mm² Class 5 copper DC resistance R₂₀ = 1.91 Ω/km, operating AC resistance at 90 °C R₉₀ = 2.44 Ω/km, and reactance X_L = 0.095 Ω/km. At 40 °C inside an enclosed drag chain (58.2 A), a 50 m run drops 10.5 V (2.63% on a 400 V bus). That stays well below the 3% to 5% industrial feeder limit.
When Should You Choose PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² Over NGFLCGOEU or NSGAFCMOEU?
Buyers often ask when to pick a single-core coaxial screened PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² cable instead of a flat rubber festoon cable or a fixed single-core rubber wire. The comparison table below matches each TEBAOFLEX cable family to its target duty.
| Cable Series | Geometry & Voltage | Insulation / Jacket Material | EMC Shielding | Min. Dynamic Bend Radius | Best-Fit Industrial Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² (This Video) | Round Coaxial Single-Core (0.6/1 kV) | Halogen-Free Elastomer / Dual PUR-HF (TMPU) | Min. 80% TCWB Tinned Copper Braid | 8 x D (200 m/min, ±25°/m torsion) | High-speed 8 x D drag chains, overhead festoon loops, and VFD single-core phase leads in oily or coastal plants. |
| NGFLCGÖU Screened Flat | Flat Multi-Core (0.6/1 kV) | 3GI3 EPR / 5GM3 Heavy-Duty PCP Rubber | Individual or Overall Copper Screen | 5 x h (flat thickness) along single plane | Stacked multi-layer overhead crane festoon saddles where vertical loop space is tight. |
| NGFLGÖU Unscreened Flat | Flat Multi-Core (0.6/1 kV) | 3GI3 EPR / 5GM3 PCP Rubber | Unscreened | 5 x h (flat thickness) | Standard AC contactor hoist power and non-VFD crane bridge travel festoons. |
| KYFLCY Flat EMC PVC | Flat Multi-Core (300/500 V or 0.6/1 kV) | Special Flexible PVC / PVC | Screened control cores | 6 x h to 8 x h (indoor -5 °C to +70 °C) | Indoor warehouse stacker cranes and dry automated assembly lines. |
| NSGAFCMÖU Single-Core | Round Single-Core (1.8/3 kV) | 3GI3 EPR / 5GM2 Polychloroprene | Tinned Copper Wire Braid (TCWB) | 6 x D fixed / 10 x D flexing | Switchgear busbars, rail traction converters, and short-circuit-proof cabinet wiring (DIN VDE 0250-602). |

What Do the Live Extrusion and Coil Footage Verify for Receiving QA?
Chapters 02 (0:06.5 to 0:11.5) and 04 (0:19.5 to 0:23.5) show live footage from TEBAOFLEX Manufacturing Line 01 and Line 02. When your quality team receives a drum of 0.6/1kV FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1x10mm², they can check five physical details directly against the video.
In-line sequential meter marking is a continuous white legend printed on the outer PUR-HF sheath right after extruder cooling (Stage 01, 0:07 to 0:11). It records manufacturer identity, voltage class (600/1000V), model code (FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1*10mm²), standard reference (IEC Standard), and exact length in meters (such as 0172M through 0223M). This lets crews cut matched phase lengths for 3-phase drag chains without unspooling the drum on the floor.
Buyer Receiving & Pre-Shipment FAT Inspection Checklist
- Verify the Outer Sheath Legend & Meter Count (0:08 to 0:11 & 0:20 to 0:23). Check that the matte black PUR-HF jacket carries crisp white printing reading TEBAOFLEX CABLE 600/1000V FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1*10mm² IEC Standard [XXXX]M. Inspect adjacent wraps on the drum (shown at 0:21 with 0172M, 0173M, 0174M, and 0175M) to confirm 1-meter increments and total shipped length.
- Inspect the 5-Layer Concentric End-Face (0:00.5 & 0:20 to 0:23). Make a clean flush cut on the sample end and compare it with the 0:20 macro cross-section (1 x 10 mm² PUR-C-HF CORE). Confirm that a distinct black PUR-HF inner bedding ring and white non-woven tape separate the TCWB copper braid from the white halogen-free insulation.
- Check TCWB Tinning & Min. 80% Optical Coverage (0:14 & 0:20). Strip back 30 mm of the outer PUR-HF jacket. Verify that the braid wires are silver-bright tinned copper per ASTM B33 (2026) and cover at least 80% of the inner bedding surface.
- Audit Traverse Winding Uniformity (0:08 to 0:11 & 0:20 to 0:23). As shown on LIVE LINE 02 (Stage 02 · Automated Drum Winding), every layer on the export drum is wound under controlled tension. Tight layer-by-layer spooling prevents cross-over pinching and memory twist before drag-chain installation.
- Review Routine Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) Certificates. Before shipment release, check the batch test report for 20 °C conductor DC resistance (max. 1.91 Ω/km per IEC 60228), 3.5 kV AC 5-minute dielectric withstand (IEC 60502-1), and -40 °C cold bending (IEC 60811-504). For full cold-bend testing protocols, read our Heavy-Duty Festoon Cable Cold-Bend and FAT Testing Guide.
Frequently Asked Questions About PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² Cables
Why use a single-core 1x10mm² screened PUR-C-HF cable instead of a 4-core cable in a drag chain?
In fast drag chains (200 m/min, 8 x D bend radius) and tight festoon loops, separate 1x10 mm² coaxial screened single-core cables eliminate multi-core corkscrewing. Each phase core bends around its own neutral axis with a slim outer diameter (9.8 mm). It also provides dedicated min. 80% TCWB coaxial shielding per EN 50289-1-6 (2026) around every phase conductor.
What is the difference between the -40°C to +80°C and -40°C to +90°C temperature ratings shown in the video?
Both numbers describe different thermal limits of the same cable. -40 °C to +80 °C (shown in the Chapter 04 Technical Profile at 0:20) is the mobile ambient temperature range for continuous dynamic flexing of the PUR-HF sheaths. +90 °C (shown on the opening card at 0:00) is the maximum continuous conductor operating temperature under full electrical load.
How does the inner PUR-HF bedding sheath protect the cable during 8xD drag chain flexing?
Without an inner sheath, the hard tinned copper wire braid (TCWB) presses straight against the 0.6/1 kV insulation at every 8 x D chain turn. That friction causes micro-fretting and early dielectric failure. The extruded black PUR-HF inner sheath (Layer 03) and non-woven textile wrap (Layer 04) cushion the braid and keep the core round.
What does the sheath print TEBAOFLEX CABLE 600/1000V FESTOON PUR-C-HF 1*10mm² IEC Standard 0223M indicate?
Shown in live workshop footage at 0:08 to 0:11 and 0:20 to 0:23, this white print confirms the maker (TEBAOFLEX CABLE), voltage rating (600/1000V), and model (FESTOON PUR-C-HF). It also marks the 1x10 mm² conductor size, IEC Standard compliance, and exact cumulative length (0223M = 223 meters from drum start).
Can PUR-C-HF 1x10mm² operate in outdoor coastal ports and oily machining centers?
Yes. Its ether-based, halogen-free polyurethane (PUR-HF / TMPU) outer jacket resists seawater hydrolysis, UV sunlight, cutting emulsions, hydraulic oils, solvents, and alkalis from -40 °C to +80 °C. Meanwhile, the tinned copper braid screen resists salt-fog corrosion and blocks VFD interference.
