3Gsltoe Spreader Basket Cable for Spreader basket cable for container cranes and load-lifting equipment
3GSLTOE 0.6/1 kV Spreader Basket Cable is an RFQ-only TEBAOFLEX cable draft for flexible feeder and control service in spreader basket systems, container cranes and load-lifting equipment. It is intended for projects where the cable operates in a gravity-fed collector basket and must be reviewed for high mechanical stress, torsional duty, cold outdoor operation and optional signal or data elements.
This page is prepared for buyer selection and quotation scoping. Final TEBAOFLEX construction, dimensions, electrical values, installation instructions and compliance documents must be confirmed project by project. The draft design basis includes 0.6/1 kV rated-voltage requirements, flexible operation in crane basket systems, weather-resistance considerations for outdoor and indoor use, and mechanical support features for vertical suspension applications. Project teams should provide the complete crane operating profile so TEBAOFLEX can check the cable design against the actual collector basket and hoist conditions.
It is intended for feeder and control cable duties on load-lifting equipment, spreader systems and gravity-fed collector basket operation, including high mechanical stress and cold-environment outdoor operation. Confirm the final duty cycle, basket system and electrical design with TEBAOFLEX before ordering.
Construction
This unpublished draft describes the 3GSLTOE spreader basket cable as a flexible control and feeder cable with bundled cores laid around a central support element, EPR core insulation and a black PUR outer sheath. The construction below is evidence-led and remains pending TEBAOFLEX technical review.
| Cable element | Draft construction detail |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Bare electrolytic copper, extremely fine stranded, class FS. |
| Core insulation | Special EPR insulation compound based on 3GI3 according to DIN VDE 0207, intended for ambient temperatures down to -40 °C. |
| Core identification | Light-coloured numbered core insulation with black numbering; protective earth conductor green/yellow. |
| Individual screen | Tinned copper wire braid screen where specified; transfer impedance optimized at 30 MHz. Referenced braid coverage is at least 60% for shielded cores and at least 80% for twisted pairs. |
| Core arrangement | Cores laid up into bundles; bundles laid up around a central support element. |
| Support element | Central support element using aramid threads woven around lead ball cords. Larger designs may use a round rubber filler with aramid threads. |
| Data elements | Optional special bus elements, AS-i Bus, Profibus or fibre optic elements may be integrated subject to project design confirmation. |
| Outer sheath | Special PUR outer sheath, black. |
Applications
3GSLTOE spreader basket cable is a flexible 0.6/1 kV feeder and control cable draft-specified for load-lifting equipment, spreader systems and gravity-fed collector basket operation. It is intended for crane and port environments where the cable is repeatedly paid into and out of a collector basket under high mechanical stress.
- Container crane spreader basket cable for feeder and control circuits.
- Gravity-fed collector basket systems on load-lifting equipment.
- Flexible hoist duties requiring torsional performance and increased tensile capability from a support element.
- Cold-environment outdoor port and crane operation.
- Optional project designs with special bus elements, AS-i Bus, Profibus or fibre optic elements for data transmission.
