Application of Marine Armored Cable | TST CABLES
1.Scenario Introduction
With the rapid development of global shipping industry, the complexity of ship power system and control system is increasing, and the performance requirements for cables are becoming more and more strict. As a special type of cable, marine armored cable is widely used in the field of shipping because of its excellent mechanical protection performance and resistance to external interference. Marine armored cable not only carries the important task of power transmission, but also is responsible for guaranteeing the stable operation of ship control system, which is a key component for safe navigation and efficient operation of ships.
2.Pain point analysis
During the use of marine cables, traditional non-armored cables are often difficult to withstand the complex mechanical stress and environmental factors during ship navigation, and are prone to damage and failure, resulting in power transmission interruption or control system failure. In addition, ships have limited space and compact cable layout, which puts higher requirements on the flexibility and reliability of cables. Therefore, the development of a marine armored cable that can withstand harsh environments, withstand mechanical stress, and maintain efficient and stable transmission has become an urgent problem for the industry.
3.The product requirements of marine armored cable
Marine armored cable in the design and manufacturing process to meet the following requirements:
Mechanical properties: the cable needs to have excellent tensile, compressive and bending resistance, in order to cope with the mechanical stress of the ship sailing process.
Environmental adaptability: the cable should be able to operate stably for a long time under the harsh environment of high temperature, high humidity, high salt spray, etc. without aging, cracking and other phenomena.
Electrical performance: the cable should have good conductivity and insulation to ensure the stability and safety of power transmission.
Safety: the cable should meet the relevant safety standards, with flame retardant, low smoke, non-toxic and other characteristics, in order to protect the safety of ships and personnel.
4.Marine armored cable certification standards
Marine armored cables need to comply with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and the relevant classification societies to develop certification standards, such as DNV-GL, ABS, LR and so on. These standards on the mechanical properties of the cable, electrical properties, environmental adaptability and safety performance of strict regulations to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the cable in the ship.
5.Cable selection
In the selection process, we need to consider the use of the cable, the working environment, load characteristics and other factors. For marine armored cables, TST CABLES recommends the selection of cables with high-strength metal armor layer to improve the mechanical protection performance of the cable. At the same time, according to the rated voltage of the cable, current capacity and laying method and other requirements, select the appropriate cable cross-section and insulation materials.
6.Product characteristics
The marine armored cable of this solution has the following remarkable characteristics:
High-strength armored layer: the armored layer made of high-quality metal material provides strong mechanical protection for the cable and effectively resists external pressure and impact.
Excellent electrical performance: the use of high conductivity copper conductor and high quality insulation materials, to ensure that the cable can still maintain stable electrical performance in harsh environments.
Good environmental adaptability: the cable has excellent resistance to high temperature, humidity, salt spray and other characteristics, can be in a variety of harsh environments for long-term stable operation.
Safe and reliable: the cable meets the relevant safety standards, with flame retardant, low smoke, non-toxic and other characteristics, to ensure the safety of the ship and personnel.
Recommended Products
TST marine cables are durable, waterproof, high-temperature resistant, interference-resistant, flame retardant, environmentally friendly, and have excellent insulation properties. They can ensure stable operation of cables in harsh marine working environments.
7.Technical test
In order to ensure the quality and performance of the marine armored cable, TST CABLES has carried out a series of strict technical tests, including mechanical performance test, electrical performance test, environmental adaptability test and safety performance test. The test results show that the marine armored cable of this solution fully meets the relevant standards and requirements, and has excellent performance and reliability.
8.Marine armored cable laying installation and commissioning
In the process of marine armored cable laying and installation, TST CABLES will formulate a reasonable cable laying plan according to the actual layout and working environment of the ship. During the laying process, professional laying equipment and techniques are used to ensure that the cables are smooth and undamaged. After the installation is completed, TST CABLES will carry out debugging and testing of the cable to ensure that its connection with the ship’s power system is stable and reliable, and that the power transmission is unobstructed.
