igus medium voltage cable for energy supply systems on crane installations available from stock

The motion plastic specialist igus has developed the new chainflex medium voltage cable CFCRANE.PUR for very long travels, for example in crane facilities. Motor cables of this series are, among others, highly flexible and oil resistant. As a retrofit solution or for special projects, igus offers the new series of cables from stock.

In the crane and material handling sector, installations are increasingly getting bigger and working at an ever-higher dynamics around the clock. This means, in addition to the ever-higher demand for energy, there are rising requirements on the components used, which have to withstand ever-increasing loads all 365 days of the year. For projects of this kind, the motion plastics specialist igus has developed the CFCRANE.PUR series of chainflex cables to compliment the low-abrasion and low-noise roller energy chains. These are particularly suitable for very long travels up to 1,000 metres. The new medium voltage cable CFCRANE.PUR for voltages of 6/10 kV can be used in indoor and outdoor applications due to the special conductor structure as well as the combination of the materials used. The new CFCRANE.PUR has a diameter that is up to 20 percent smaller than conventional motor cables.

Special cable with 36 months guarantee available from stock
These cables of the new series have been developed for bend radii of 10xd moving in e-chains The durability has been proven in the igus test laboratory and is guaranteed by igus, as for all 1,244 chainflex cables available from stock, for a life of 36 months. "If customers urgently need cables for replacing existing systems, they don’t have to wait a long time," explains Rainer Rössel, head of the chainflex cables division at igus. "Because, the new cable can be ordered directly from our stock and delivered in the shortest possible time." This is also interesting for special projects, which igus implements through its project engineering team. If, for example, new installations are equipped with energy supply systems in the bulk handling or offshore sector, the igus experts will assist right from the planning stage. Since igus produces energy chains and cables and delivers them from one source, customers can always rely on secure and ready-to-install solutions.
