Technical Engineering Guide by Anhui Feichun Special Cable Co., Ltd. (安徽飞纯特种电缆有限公司)

1. Introduction 简介

Type 241 mining cables are critical power supply components in underground coal mining operations, where the outer sheath serves as both the primary mechanical protection barrier and a vital fire safety element. The heavy-duty polychloroprene (HD-85-PCP) sheath provides flame retardancy that prevents fire propagation in the methane-rich atmospheres characteristic of coal mines. When this sheath becomes damaged through mechanical abrasion, cutting, crushing, or chemical attack, the integrity of the flame retardant protection is compromised, potentially creating an ignition source or allowing fire to spread along the cable in the event of an electrical fault.

中文说明:Type 241采矿电缆是井下煤矿作业中关键的电源供应组件,其外护套既是主要的机械保护屏障,也是重要的消防安全元素。重型聚氯丁橡胶(HD-85-PCP)护套提供阻燃性能,防止火焰在煤矿特有的富含甲烷气氛中蔓延。当护套因机械磨损、切割、挤压或化学侵蚀而损坏时,阻燃保护的完整性会受到影响,可能在发生电气故障时产生点火源或允许火焰沿电缆蔓延。

Repairing a damaged sheath while maintaining its flame retardant properties requires strict adherence to procedures specified in AS/NZS 1747:2022 and the use of materials that match the original sheath compound’s fire performance characteristics. This guide provides comprehensive procedures for assessing damage, selecting appropriate repair methods, and verifying that the repaired cable maintains its required flame retardancy rating per IEC 60332 and AS/NZS 1802.

2. Type 241 Cable Construction Type 241电缆结构

2.1 Cable Overview 电缆概述

Type 241 is a flexible rubber-screened mining cable engineered specifically for underground coal mining applications. It features a semiconductive elastomer screen that provides protective earth contact for any object breaching the sheath prior to contact with power conductors, significantly enhancing personnel safety. The cable is designed for use as main feeder cable for continuous miners, pump cable, and general power supply in demanding underground environments.

中文说明:Type 241是一种专为井下煤矿应用设计的柔性橡胶屏蔽采矿电缆。它具有半导体弹性体屏蔽层,可为任何穿透护套的物体提供保护性接地接触,在接触电源导体之前大大增强人员安全。该电缆设计用于连续采煤机的主馈电电缆、泵电缆和恶劣井下环境中的一般电源供应。

3. HD-85-PCP Sheath Properties HD-85-PCP护套性能

3.1 Material Characteristics 材料特性

The outer sheath of Type 241 cable is manufactured from HD-85-PCP, a heavy-duty cross-linked compound based on polychloroprene (also known commercially as Neoprene). This material was selected specifically for underground coal mining applications due to its combination of mechanical toughness, chemical resistance, and inherent flame retardancy. Polychloroprene releases chlorine gas when burned, which acts as a flame suppressant by interfering with the combustion reaction chain.

中文说明:Type 241电缆的外护套由HD-85-PCP制成,这是一种基于聚氯丁橡胶(商业上也称为氯丁橡胶)的重型交联化合物。由于其机械韧性、耐化学性和固有阻燃性的结合,该材料专门为井下煤矿应用而选择。聚氯丁橡胶燃烧时释放氯气,通过干扰燃烧反应链起到阻燃作用。

Reference: Eland Cables – Benefits of PCP Sheathed Cables

3.2 Flame Retardant Testing Requirements 阻燃测试要求

Type 241 cables must pass vertical flame propagation tests per IEC 60332-1-2 for single cables. In this test, a 600mm cable sample is mounted vertically and a 1kW pre-mixed flame is applied for 60 seconds (or 120 seconds for cables with overall diameter exceeding 25mm). The cable passes if it self-extinguishes after flame removal and the charred or affected portion does not extend to within 50mm of the upper cable support. Any repair materials used must maintain this flame performance characteristic.

中文说明:Type 241电缆必须通过符合IEC 60332-1-2标准的单根电缆垂直火焰蔓延测试。在此测试中,将600mm电缆样品垂直安装,施加1kW预混火焰60秒(对于总直径超过25mm的电缆为120秒)。如果电缆在火焰移除后自熄,且烧焦或受影响部分未延伸到上部电缆支架50mm以内,则电缆通过测试。所使用的任何修复材料都必须保持这种火焰性能特性。

5. Approved Repair Methods 批准的修复方法

5.1 Overview of Repair Methods 修复方法概述

AS/NZS 1747:2022 specifies two primary methods for repairing the outer sheath of Type 241 cables while maintaining flame retardant properties: vulcanized (hot) repair and cold repair using approved compounds. The vulcanizing method produces a repair that is chemically bonded to the original sheath material and matches its mechanical and fire performance properties most closely. Cold repair methods using flame retardant casting resins or self-vulcanizing tapes provide acceptable results for less critical applications or field emergency repairs.

中文说明:AS/NZS 1747:2022规定了两种主要方法来修复Type 241电缆的外护套,同时保持阻燃性能:硫化(热)修复和使用批准化合物的冷修复。硫化方法产生的修复与原护套材料化学键合,最接近地匹配其机械和火灾性能特性。使用阻燃浇铸树脂或自硫化带的冷修复方法为较不关键的应用或现场紧急修复提供可接受的结果。
