 General Information

Introduction Rubber insulated cables type sheathing compounds. Their

H07RN8 are water resistant
cables with EPR insulation and a
polychlorine or synthetic rubber
sheath. As these cables are only
suitable for up to 10 m water
depth and 40 C water tempera-
ture Nexans has developed
RHEYWELL submersible cables
with higher demands for the
particular use in drinking water
and sewage.
Extensive tests with our RHEYWELL
cables confirmed their very good
electrical long-time characteristics
with regard to insulation resistance
as well as dielectric strength, and
also the excellent mechanical
features of the insulating and
suitability for permanent use in
water has been proven with that
(see DIN VDE 0298, part 3).
For use in drinking water, Nexans
modified the respective com-
pounds. They are distinguished
by the use of exquisite and
approved compound parts. The
suitability of the materials is
documented by a test certificate,
issued by Bundesanstalt fr
Materialforschung und -prfung
(BAM) (Federal Office for
Material Research and Testing).
Nexans holds expert evidence
including manufacturing audit by
VDE-Prfstelle (VDE Testing Office).
