Mining signal cable YnKGSLY 500V 11x1.5+1.5 gray 0364 023 10

Mining Signal Cable – Reliability in Demanding Conditions

The YnKGSLY cable is a specialized solution designed for use in control, measurement, signaling, automation, and local communication circuits in mining facilities. Its construction and materials ensure safe and efficient operation even under the most demanding underground and open-pit mining conditions. This cable is suitable for use in both methane and non-methane environments, complying with stringent safety standards.

Construction and Application – Key to Safety

YnKGSLY cables are engineered to meet the specific requirements of the mining industry. They are used in intrinsically safe circuits and control-measurement installations, enabling safe operations in areas at risk of coal dust explosions. These cables are not intended for use in power supply electrical installations. They hold a positive technical opinion from the TI EMAG Institute (No. 05/53) and an official certificate (No. 05/53/A1/2), confirming compliance with mining regulations.

Cable construction includes:

• Conductors: Flexible, multi-stranded, copper (tin-plated upon request), Class 5 according to PN-EN 60228 – ensuring flexibility and reliable connections.
• Insulation: Insulating polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in various colors to facilitate conductor identification (green-yellow for protective conductor, black and blue for others).
• Core: Layered twisted conductors protected by a polyester tape – ensuring stability and protection against mechanical damage.
• Sheath: Special fire-retardant, self-extinguishing PVC sheath available in black RAL 9005 or blue RAL 5015 (for intrinsically safe circuits).

Technical Characteristics and Benefits

The YnKGSLY cable features a nominal conductor cross-section of 1.5 mm² and contains 12 cores. This configuration enables the transmission of control and measurement signals in complex mining systems. The flexible design facilitates cable routing even in confined spaces. Additionally, the PVC sheath provides resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage typical in mining environments. Notably, the cable’s high flexibility simplifies installation and minimizes the risk of damage during operation.
