Water Cooled Cables

Water cooled cabled are used for connecting arc furnace, melting furnace and ladle furnace. These cables are continuously water cooled and hence named so.

Configuration

Water cooled cables are normally designed according to the capacity of the furnaces.The size of the main conductor is directly proportional to the tonnage capacity of the furnace. The main power core consist of pure Electrolytic Grade (min 99.9% purity) of multilayer bunched stranded copper conductor. These bunched conductors are centrally seperated to prevent restriction of water flow. Further more copper / bronze seperators are placed at regular intervals.

The main central core is covered by neoprene rubber carbon free hose, which is again asbestos/ceremic glass insulated to withstand high temperature, as faced in these critical areas. The cable is end socketed by forged eletrolytic grade copper lugs available as per site application.

L. T. Furnace Cables

L. T. Furnace cables are being used for connecting transformer busbars and melting electrodes. These are special cables being used inIron and steel plants, foundries, hot rolling mills, cooking plants, cement, glass and ceramic factories to connect main transformer burbars and melting electrodes.

Configuration

L. T. Furnace cables are normally manufactured having the cores area of 400 sq. mm of pure electrolytic grade (min 99.9% purity) of multilayer bunched stranded copper conductor. Depending upon the site application, the conductor area can be increased or decreased too. The core is insulated with polyster/myler tape and then varnish impregnated double ceramic glass yarn covered. The lacquer impregnation is polymerised suitable for operation at 500 volts. Overall braiding of heatproof asbestos is provided and is treated with heatproof and flameproof black compound to suit high temperature conditions.
