Type 241 Superflex 1.1 to 6.6KV Mining Cable AS/NZS 1802
Type 241SF cable has special stranding and lay-up. PED ratio to provide maximum flexibility in arduous conditions. General purpose cable for continuous miners, or feeder cables to pumps. Also commonly used for monorails supplying DCBs and longwalls.
Applications
These cablesare similar to Type 241 cables, except more flexible and have a smaller ‘natural’ bending radius, suitable for use as monorail cable where cable loops will be narrower, thus allowing more space for other equipmentand reducing opportunities for getting snagged.
