SM-LVLVWV

Loose Tube Fibre Optic Cable - Dry Core - Lead Sheath - Steel Wire Armour - FR-PVC Sheaths

Application

  • The cable is especially designed for harsh environments.The steel wire armour and the PVC outer sheath make the cable suitable for installation under and above ground.Swellable water blocking tape over the stranding and water tightness compound within loose tube provide resilient and robust moisture protection to the fibre. Having an outer PVC sheath over an inner lead sheath make this cable relatively flexible, flame retardant, and resistant to chemical solvent,oil,and abrasion

Fire Rating

  • IEC 60332-1 IEC 60332 - 3 - 24

Features

  • Central Strength Member(CSM): Glass fiber reinforced plastic rod (FRP), plastic over sheathing when needed
  • Loose Tube: : Thermoplastic material, containing up to 12 fibers and filled with a suitable water tightness compound
  • Filler Elements:Thermoplastic rods, where needed
  • Stranding:Loose tubes (and fillers), SZ stranded around the CSM
  • Cable core: Swellable water blockinbg tapes are applied over the stranding
  • 1st inner sheath:Flame retardant PVC (Black)
  • Lead sheath: Lead compound 0.55% antimoon
  • 2nd inner sheath:Flame retardant PVC(Black)
  • Armour:One layer of galvanized steel wires
  • Outer sheath:The outer sheath is of a flame retardant PVC compound

Ordering Information
SM-LVLVWV SERIES FO Cable part numbers are made up using the table below. The part number always starts with the letters SM-LVLVWV to denote that it is a SM-LVLVWV SERIES FO Cable. This is followed by 3 numbers which symbolizes the core quantity and then 2 letters to denote the fibre type.Example of a SM-LVLVWV SERIES FO Cable part number: SM-LVLVWV012M1 The above example descirbes an OM1(62. Sum, Orange Sheath) SM-LVLVWV SERIES FO Cable, with 12 cores.
