RP / RP-D Compact PUR Reeling Cable 0.6/1 kV
RP / RP-D compact PUR reeling cable is a 0.6/1 kV round power and control cable for random-winding and monospiral reels. Its optimized wall thickness and short core lay provide a compact cable envelope for horizontal machinery and small-to-medium hoisting systems.
RP / RP-D PUR reeling cable combines a compact diameter with repeated-flexing performance for spring and motorized reel systems. The family is used for low-voltage control, power and combined circuits on equipment where drum space and cable weight matter.
Flexible Class 5 or Class 6 copper conductors, a short core lay and a wear-resistant polyurethane sheath support continuous standard-duty reeling. The cable operates on horizontal routes at travel speeds up to 80 m/min. Its minimum dynamic bending radius is 8 x cable diameter, with a 20 x diameter minimum spacing at S-type forced guide pulleys. The rated tensile loading is 15 N/mm². The compact profile also reduces drum size and moving mass.
RP covers broad power and control combinations, while RP-D includes composite arrangements for control, screened data or combined power and control. Typical applications include material-handling systems, ergonomic equipment and hoisting gear with small-to-medium lifting height and mechanical stress. Specify the existing cable marking, core schedule, conductor sizes, screened pairs, drum diameter, travel speed, bending path and installed length with the enquiry.
Construction
| Layer | Construction detail |
|---|---|
| Conductor | Flexible copper, Class 5 or Class 6. |
| Core insulation | Special polyethylene compound with optimized wall thickness. |
| Core assembly | Short-lay round construction for resilience and compact overall diameter. |
| RP-D elements | Screened data pairs or combined power-and-control cores according to the selected configuration. |
| Outer sheath | Highly abrasion-resistant PUR, available in yellow or black. |
Compact Reel Design
The optimized insulation and sheath walls reduce cable diameter without turning the product into a fixed-installation cable. Reel geometry and dynamic bend radius remain part of the equipment design.
Applications
- Random-winding reels on horizontal machinery.
- Monospiral reel systems with restricted drum space.
- Small-to-medium hoisting equipment.
- Ergonomic handling and material-transfer systems.
- Combined power, control and screened data connections using RP-D configurations.
Related Cable Selection
Use the GPM / GPM-RF cable for broader random-winding selection. Move to the 12YHRDT11YH heavy-duty reeling cable when the route adds higher speed, acceleration or tensile loading. See industrial cable products for other compact moving-machine cables.
