OVERVIEW

Armored Cables

Prysmian's armored cable products offer unique advantages and ensure superior performance and easy installation for a wide range of commercial, industrial, and utility applications. This all-in-one cable assembly provides a more efficient alternative to labor-intensive cable-in-conduit installation methods. With features like aluminum interlocked armor or continuously welded corrugated aluminum sheath (CCW®) and AIRGUARD® Cable Solutions, Prysmian's armored cables exhibit outstanding resistance to crushing, heat, moisture, and chemicals, meeting the demands of challenging industrial environments and hazardous locations

Prysmian's CCW® Continuously Corrugated Welded Cable product line is the ultimate solution for power, control, instrumentation, and communications in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. With options ranging from 300 volts to 35 kV, these cables are impervious to gas, liquids, and vapors, making them the top choice for hazardous locations. 

 

Approved for use in Class I, II, and III, Divisions 1 and 2, as well as Class I, Zones 1 and 2 hazardous locations according to NEC Articles 501, 502, and 503.

Prysmian's Duralox® armored control and power cables are engineered with a flame-retardant, sunlight- and moisture-resistant PVC jacket over the aluminum interlocked armor, ensuring exceptional long-term cable performance. Our Duralox® Uniblend® armored cables feature an extruded strand shield comprising a thermoset semi-conducting extruded layer over the conductor to protect it from stress, as well as an extruded insulation shield. With options available in 600 Volt to 35 kV constructions, these cable assemblies provide versatile installation for exposed and concealed wiring in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors, and for exposed and concealed work.

Prysmian’s TECK90 Armored and Control Cable is meticulously assembled and tested for safe use in all hazardous locations when used with certified HL cable glands as per the Canadian Electrical Code. It is a highly cost-effective alternative to conduit installation and can be used for exposed and concealed wiring in dry, damp, or wet locations. The cable features a lightweight aluminum interlocked armor with an overall PVC jacket. 

 

Our VERTITECK® TECK90 cable is equipped with an inner PVC jacket under the steel galvanized armor, designed with longitudinal raised ribs that provide a secure lock. This innovative design ensures a robust construction, enabling the cable to support its own weight during vertical installations when the copper conductors provide support.

When faced with aggressive environments and high mechanical stresses, cable manufacturers have traditionally protected their cables with a lead sheath and metal armor that increase the weight of the cable and reduce the installation flexibility.
