Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is the maximum continuous operating temperature of this cable?
The cable is rated for a maximum continuous operating temperature of 121 ℃ (250 °F). For short-term use, it can withstand up to 135 ℃ (275 °F) for 8 hours, and up to 150 ℃ (300 °F) for 1 hour peak exposure.
Q
What is the cable's breaking strength and recommended working tension?
The cable has a total breaking strength of 30 kN (6,700 lbs). The maximum suggested working tension is 15 kN (3,350 lbs), which is 50% of the breaking strength — ensuring a reliable safety margin during downhole operations.
Q
What voltage rating and insulation resistance does this cable offer?
The cable carries a voltage rating of 1200 VDC. Its insulation resistance is exceptionally high at 15,000 MΩ·km (50,000 MΩ·kft), making it suitable for demanding electrical logging and measurement applications.
Q
What are the armor wire specifications and their breaking strengths?
The inner armor consists of 15 wires at 0.61 mm (0.0240") diameter, with an average wire breaking strength of 600 N (135 lbs). The outer armor uses 15 wires at 0.89 mm (0.0350") diameter, with each wire rated at 1,300 N (292 lbs) breaking strength.
Q
What is the minimum sheave diameter recommended for this cable?
The minimum sheave (pulley) diameter recommended for safe operation is 320 mm (13"). Using a sheave smaller than this may cause excessive bending stress, reducing the cable's service life and mechanical integrity.
Q
What is the conductor construction and electrical resistance of this cable?
The conductor uses a 19-strand copper construction with each strand measuring 0.30 mm (0.0118") in diameter, providing excellent flexibility and conductivity. The typical DC resistance at 20 ℃ is 13.1 Ω/km (4.0 Ω/kft), suitable for low-loss signal and power transmission.
