Balmoral Comtec System / Package
Cable protection system (CPS)
Patented cable protection system for fixed offshore wind turbines that locks mechanically to its end connectors, doubling axial tension capacity.
Description
Balmoral's patented cable protection system (CPS) for fixed offshore wind turbines locks mechanically to its end connectors instead of relying on polyurethane bonding. The design reaches strain and stiffness levels that traditional PU manufacturing methods cannot, and greatly increases fatigue life.
Key features
- Axial tension capacity doubled while axial elongation is controlled
- Bend stiffness increased by a factor of 1.5 for control of the cable's maximum bend radius
- Slimline profile
- Improved long-term creep performance compared with traditional CPS
Applications
Protection of inter-array and export cables at fixed offshore wind turbine foundations.
