Features and advantages

Sewer installation.

Armoured cables are very suitable for sewer installation where

there is high risk of rodent presence.

Armoured structure and double jacket provides additional

compressive strength and complete rodent protection.

Double polythene sheath structure protects against corrosive

environments

Static cable bending radius 15 x cable diameter

Temperature range -40°C to +70°C
