Product overview

Type 11 for excavating, crushing and coal-cutting equipment

Type 11 mining cable is specified in the supplied BS 6708 datasheet for excavating, crushing and coal-cutting equipment. This page keeps the source-listed voltage, test reference, core functions and dimensional tables together so a procurement engineer can compare the requested model against the cable marking and the equipment connection. The editorial focus is the cradle-based screened-pilot layout, not a generic promise of performance.

The supplied construction uses three phase cores and one screened pilot core with composite individual screens, laid up around an elastomeric cradle in contact with one another and covered by a heavy-duty chloroprene sheath. That arrangement matters because Type 11 shares the 640/1100 V coal-cutter family but uses a screened pilot around an elastomeric cradle. The family should therefore be selected by model, core function and installation route as well as by voltage. The mining and tunnelling cable range provides the wider TEBAOFLEX product context.

  • Choose by: confirm the cradle arrangement, pilot screening and equipment-side monitoring interface from the existing cable marking.
  • Confirm before ordering: existing sheath marking, conductor area, cable length, route, support or handling system, terminations and the required inspection documents.
  • Do not infer: values not listed in the supplied PDF, such as a different current basis, water/oil/UV performance, certification scope or mechanical interchangeability.

Project teams can also review the Mining & Tunnelling solutions page when the machine route, support method and termination plan need to be assessed together.

For a technical quotation, send the equipment nameplate or existing cable marking, voltage and size requirement, installation conditions, quantity, destination and any project-specific test or documentation requirement.

Construction

Type 11 construction

The cross-section below is the supplied construction drawing for Type 11. The ordering decision is driven by Type 11 shares the 640/1100 V coal-cutter family but uses a screened pilot around an elastomeric cradle.

The supplied datasheet identifies this cable for excavating, crushing and coal-cutting equipment. Google result patterns for the BS 6708 family also separate cables by equipment duty, voltage class, core function and whether the route is armoured, screened, flat or auxiliary. That is why this page keeps the Type 11 construction separate from nearby Type numbers.

  • Primary duty: excavating, crushing and coal-cutting equipment.
  • Model boundary: Type 11 shares the 640/1100 V coal-cutter family but uses a screened pilot around an elastomeric cradle.
  • Project check: match the cable marking, core map, voltage, termination, route geometry and handling method to the machine drawing.
  • Environmental review: confirm the actual mine/quarry conditions and any authority, inspection or documentation requirements; do not infer a certification or material-resistance claim from the model number.

Projects comparing pilot-core layouts can use the Type 7S three-core pilot cable as a separate reference; it is a comparison path, not an automatic substitution.

The cable should be released only after the equipment route, required length, conductor area, core functions and connection details are agreed. If the intended duty is different from the source-listed application, request an engineering review through the quotation process.

The product page preserves the BS 6708 reference appearing in the supplied PDF. The BSI record currently identifies BS 6708:1998 as withdrawn on 22 May 2026; this status note is a standards-reference update, not a claim that the product is currently certified or approved. See the official BSI BS 6708 scope record for the published status.

For an RFQ, state the required standard documents, inspection scope, test report, cable marking, destination rules and any replacement-equivalence requirement. The model number alone does not establish legal installation compliance.
