Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What type of copper construction is used in this cable?
The cable uses a 7×0.21 mm (7×0.0083") stranded copper construction, providing excellent conductivity and flexibility for downhole applications.
Q
What is the maximum continuous operating temperature of this cable?
The cable supports a continuous maximum temperature of 121 ℃ (250 °F). For short-term operation, it can withstand up to 150 ℃ (300 °F) for 1 hour or 135 ℃ (300 °F) for 8 hours.
Q
What is the cable's breaking strength and recommended working tension?
The cable has a total breaking strength of 25 kN (5,400 lbs). The maximum suggested working tension is 12.5 kN (2,800 lbs), which is 50% of the breaking strength — following standard safety practices for downhole operations.
Q
What is the voltage rating and insulation resistance of this cable?
The cable is rated at 300 VDC. Its insulation resistance is 15,000 MΩ·km (50,000 MΩ·kft), ensuring excellent electrical isolation suitable for demanding well logging and downhole monitoring environments.
Q
What is the minimum shave (sheave) diameter required for this cable?
The minimum sheave diameter for this cable is 356 mm (14 inches). Using a sheave smaller than this minimum can cause excessive bending stress, potentially damaging the armor wires and reducing the cable's service life.
Q
What is the cable's outer diameter and weight in air?
The cable has an outer diameter of 6.40 mm (+0.13 mm / −0.05 mm), equivalent to 0.2520" (+0.0051" / −0.0019"). Its weight in air is approximately 160 kg/km (107 lbs/kft), making it suitable for deep-well deployment with standard wireline equipment.
