Frequently Asked Questions
Q1
What is the maximum continuous operating temperature of this cable?
The cable is rated for a continuous maximum temperature of 121 ℃ (250 °F). For short-term operation, it can withstand up to 135 ℃ (275 °F) for 8 hours and up to 150 ℃ (300 °F) for 1 hour.
Q2
What is the cable breaking strength and recommended working tension?
The cable has a breaking strength of 8 kN (1,800 lbs). The maximum suggested working tension is 4 kN (900 lbs), which is 50% of the breaking strength to ensure safe and reliable long-term operation.
Q3
What type of armor construction does this cable use?
This cable features a double-armor construction. The inner armor consists of 12 wires × 0.47 mm (0.0185") and the outer armor consists of 18 wires × 0.47 mm (0.0185"), providing robust mechanical protection for demanding downhole environments.
Q4
What is the voltage rating and insulation resistance of this cable?
The cable is rated at 300 VDC. Its insulation resistance is exceptionally high at 15,000 MΩ·km (50,000 MΩ·kft), ensuring excellent electrical isolation and signal integrity in harsh downhole conditions.
Q5
What is the minimum sheave (pulley) diameter recommended for this cable?
The minimum sheave diameter for this cable is 190 mm (7.5"). Using a sheave smaller than this specification may cause permanent deformation or damage to the cable structure and reduce its service life.
Q6
What are the key physical dimensions and weight of this cable?
The cable has an outer diameter of 3.5 mm (+0.13 / −0.05 mm), equivalent to 0.1380" (+0.0051" / −0.0019"). It weighs 45 kg/km (30 lbs/kft) in air, making it a lightweight yet mechanically strong solution for wireline logging and downhole measurement applications.
