TRATOS FESTOON MTO®-M

Rubber-sheathed flexible cables for open-cast mining, suitable for laying alongside conveyor belts (also for shiftable units) and on material handling equipment, even when the cable is moved continuously, e .g . in cable suspension fittings and as a connection between upper and lower cars. The cables are also suitable for the connection of submersible pump units.

The conductor is electrolytic copper, not tinned, finely stranded class5 refer to DIN VDE 0295. The insulation basic material is EPR special compound refer also to DIN VDE 0207, part20. The core arrangement is three main conductors laid-up together with the protective-earth conductor, from 50 sqm with protective-earth split into three in the outer interstices.

The inner sheath basic material is EPR a special compound refers to DIN VDE 02027, part 21. The outer sheath basic material is CM, a special compound in black colour refer to DIN VDE 0207, part 21.

The ambient temperature in a fully flexible operation is -30℃ to +80℃. Also available is a low-temperature version “K” for -60℃ to +60℃. Several tests ensure the quality of this product.
