GPM / GPM-RF PUR Reeling Cable 0.6/1 kV
GPM / GPM-RF PUR reeling cable is a 0.6/1 kV round cable family for random-winding and monospiral reels. GPM serves standard horizontal reeling up to 60 m/min, while GPM-RF supports heavier duty up to 90 m/min with higher tensile loading.
GPM / GPM-RF PUR reeling cable supplies low-voltage power and control to moving machinery through spring or motorized reels. Its flexible copper conductors, compact round lay-up and abrasion-resistant polyurethane sheath are designed for repeated winding on horizontal travel routes.
GPM is the standard-duty option for random-winding reels at travel speeds up to 60 m/min and tensile loading up to 12 N/mm². GPM-RF extends the same 0.6/1 kV family to heavy-duty random-winding or monospiral reels, with travel speeds up to 90 m/min and tensile loading up to 20 N/mm². Both versions use minimum bending radii of 6 x cable diameter on the spool, 9 x diameter at a guiding device and 4 x diameter on an anti-tension drum.
Typical installations include horizontally travelling machinery, ergonomic handling systems and compact reel-fed equipment. Specify the conductor arrangement, reel type, drum diameter, cable layers, travel speed, route length and ambient exposure with the enquiry. Level-wind systems, deflection-pulley routes and sustained vertical hanging loads call for a different reeling construction.
Construction
| Layer | Construction detail |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Flexible copper, Class 5 to IEC 60228. |
| Core insulation | Polypropylene or cross-linked elastomer according to the selected GPM or GPM-RF configuration. |
| Core assembly | Short-lay round construction for repeated drum winding. |
| Sheath | Highly abrasion-resistant polyurethane outer sheath. |
| Cable identification | GPM or GPM-RF type marking with rated voltage, conductor arrangement and production code. |
GPM and GPM-RF Selection
Use GPM for standard horizontal random winding. Use GPM-RF where the route adds monospiral storage, higher travel speed or greater tensile load.
Applications
- Random-winding spring and motorized reels.
- Monospiral reels using the GPM-RF heavy-duty construction.
- Horizontal travelling machinery and transfer equipment.
- Ergonomic handling systems and compact material-handling equipment.
- Low-voltage power, control or combined moving circuits.
