    HRADIL offshore control and signal cables comply with RINA standard for passenger ships

    Patented HRADIL offshore control and signal cables HB44® C for use in explosion protected areas according to IEC 60079-14 effectively prevent zone entrainment of gases inside the cable. In addition to RINA certification we can also ship HRADIL offshore cables with DNV GL certification upon request.
  • Underground Survivalists.
    May 2018

    Underground Survivalists.

    The New Generation Twisted-Pair Cable presented by Hradial Special Cables is a robust alternative to the Standard Coaxial Cable. In terms of its mechanical and functional integrity and reliable signal transmission it clearly outperforms the standard coax cable. Typical applications for the New Generation Twisted-Pair Cable are power supply systems and data transmission for TV inspection robots for underground sewers.
  • New Generation Coaxial Cable 4.0 for UV-Cured Lining Systems. 
    July 2017

    New Generation Coaxial Cable 4.0 for UV-Cured Lining Systems. 

    HRADIL’s new 300 V New Generation Coaxial Cable 4.0 for sewer relining robots with UV-curing unit permits the use of two independently operated camera systems. The technical solution behind this employs two internal 75 ohm coaxial conductors.
  • A world première: Four-layer 500 volt drag chain cable with 61 conductors. 
    June 2017

    A world première: Four-layer 500 volt drag chain cable with 61 conductors. 

    HRADIL Spezialkabel GmbH in Bietigheim presents the world’s first drag chain cable with four layers: the High-Endurance cable. Best of all, it can replace from one up to five individual drag chain cables, so that in the event of a malfunction of one cable in an energy chain only one individual cable will need to be replaced rather than all five of them.
  • The Three-In-One Cable: CAN-Bus, Ethernet Cat. 7 and 300V Power Supply. 
    April 2017

    The Three-In-One Cable: CAN-Bus, Ethernet Cat. 7 and 300V Power Supply. 

    The new CAN-Bus High-Endurance cable presented by HRADIL Spezialkabel GMBH in Bietigheim is a hybrid cable and has been specially designed for moving applications in extreme environments. Typically it will be used aboard heavy-duty machinery in open-cast mining and road construction work. Here, extreme mechanical conditions such as vibrations and high tensile loads conspire to make life hell for the cables.
  • Hradil high-endurance cable with a nominal voltage of up to 6/10 kV for the toughest conditions.
