Product Description
Cast Resin Straight Through Cable Joint - 21-36mm O.D.
The CABAC range of cast resin straight through cable joints are ideal for single or multi-core telephone, signal and power cables with up to 3.3 kV rating.
The joints can be used where cables are buried directly in the ground, on cable trays, on rail installations are water submerged or being repaired.
The cast resin is a special unfilled polyurethane which has good adhesive strength to all cable materials. Soft elastic properties ensure equalisation of mechanical stresses caused by different thermal expansion of cable materials.The cast resin has definite advantages over rigid epoxy resin which may be liable to stress cracking.
Cast Resin Straight Through Cable Joint Features
? Easy visual check before and during pouring of cast resin
? Pouring spouts to ensure void-free resin fill
? Snap lock and pre-shaped cut-offs to allow quick sealing of mold around cable
? Cable joints that comply with VDE standards
? All accessories
? Storage that is guaranteed for 3 years at maximum temperature of 35°C*
? Certification and Test Reports are available on request
* In ambient temperatures of below 15°C follow the Technical Note - Cold Temperature instructions.
Technical Note - Cold Temperature
Resins do not cure rapidly in temperatures below 20°C. Either raise the ambient temperature or warm the joint, cable and connectorsor use the following procedure.
1. Thermally insulate the joint shell using cloth or newspaper and warm if possible. Warming the cable is the easiest.
2. Mix the resin rapidlyand wait a short while until you feel the heat being generated by the resin hardening process, generally a few minutes max.
3. Rapidly pour the resin mixture into the joint. The largest cause of joint failure is badly mixed resin or decomposition or frothing caused by moisture.
Note: moisture can originate from a gas flame.
Important: Curing Time
One hour to cure before energising and 24 hours to fully cure.
To be protected from water and elements it needs to be fully cured
