💬 Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the maximum continuous operating temperature of this cable?
The cable supports a continuous maximum temperature of 204 ℃ (400 °F). For short-duration operations, it can withstand up to 260 ℃ (500 °F) for 1 hour, or 232 ℃ (450 °F) for up to 8 hours.
Q
What is the cable's breaking strength and recommended working tension?
The cable has a total breaking strength of 30 kN (6,750 lbs). The maximum suggested working tension is 15 kN (3,370 lbs), which is 50% of the breaking strength, ensuring a safe operating margin during deployment.
Q
What insulation materials are used and what are their outer diameters?
Two insulation options are available: FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene) with an outer diameter of 1.83 mm (0.0720"), and ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) with an outer diameter of 2.51 mm (0.0988"). Both materials offer excellent high-temperature and chemical resistance.
Q
What is the voltage rating and insulation resistance of this cable?
The cable is rated at 1200 VDC. It features an exceptionally high insulation resistance of 15,000 MΩ·km (50,000 MΩ·kft), making it suitable for precision downhole measurement and logging applications where signal integrity is critical.
Q
What is the minimum shave (sheave) diameter required for this cable?
The minimum sheave diameter for this cable is 350 mm (14 inches). Using a sheave smaller than this specification may cause mechanical fatigue, kinking, or premature failure of the armor wires.
Q
What is the cable's overall diameter and weight in air?
The cable has an outer diameter of 6.35 mm (+0.13 / −0.05 mm), equivalent to 0.250" (+0.0051" / −0.0019"). Its weight in air is approximately 180 kg/km (120 lbs/kft), which should be factored into tension calculations during well logging operations.
