 SPECIAL
PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
Submarine
(underwater)
Submarine
cables provide power to offshore islands, oil platforms or to cross-rivers
and lakes. Typically these cables are installed as radial feeds
and demand the highest level of reliability. Kerite has over 100
years experience in producing submarine power cables. Our patented
technology allows for the production of continuos long lengths.
These cables are available in a range of conductor sizes, voltages,
wire armor finishes and can incorporate fiber optic cable(s) within
the overall armor protection. Kerite Cable Services can provide
turnkey installation.
Riser/Borehole
These cables are installed as the primary power feeds in high rise
structures or in mining or other vertical tunnel applications This
application utilize helical applied wire armor to support and protect
the power cable core.
Aerial
Kerite pre-assembled aerial cable is fully shielded for personnel
safety and can be installed in very narrow rights of way. This design
features the same time proven Permashield® and EP rubber
insulation system insulation system as in Kerite Power cables. The
unique free-stripping insulation shield assures fast and reliable
terminations and splices. Kerite Cable Services can provide turnkey
installation.
Armored
Kerite power cables can be finished with a wide range of application
specific protective armor. Wire Armor for Submarine or Riser applications
Interlocked galvanized steel or aluminum armor of maximum mechanical
protect in industrial facilities.
Continuously
Corrugated Welded Armor
This product is an alternative to traditional interlocked armor as
a means of providing mechanical protection for power cables both during
installation and while in service. In addition to the mechanical protection
CCW provides a hermetic seal against the ingress of water or other
potentially degrading fluids. The primary medium voltage application
is as power feeders in Petro-Chemical, Pulp & Paper, Glass, Steel
and other demanding industrial environments. These Cables are UL listed
MV-105 or MV 90 (depending on the cable core specified) type MC- HL.
This designation means that the cables are approved for Hazardous
locations Class I, II, III, Division 1 and 2 - NEC 501,502 and 503
Portable power
Kerite offers flexible shielded cables for use in portable substation
applications. These cable utilize class H copper strand and a braided
copper shield protected by a heavy-duty polyurethane jacket. These
cable can be supplied with factory made terminations.
Replacement
of Paper Insulted Lead Covered (PILC)
Paper Insulated oil filled lead covered cables have provide excellent
service for more than 100 years. However environmental concerns regarding
lead and oil as well as loss of skilled splicers has created the need
for an alternative product that can be retrofitted in the existing
ducts. Kerite offers reduced diameter cables utilizing the same time
proven Permashield®
and EP rubber insulation system insulation system as Kerite Power
cables.
Transmission
Cables
Underground transmission cables provide a alternative to obtrusive
overhead transmission lines in congested areas. Applications include
HV industrial feeds, Line dips for airport or highway crossings. Typical
circuits are 1-2 miles. Kerite first introduced 69kV cable in 1967and
extended the line up to 138kV in 1975. The Permashield®
and EP rubber insulation system insulation system is flexible and
lightweight and does not require impervious sheath. Kerite Cable Services
can provide turnkey installation.
