Fairfield, NJ- With the HV 1000 C series, SAB one of the world's leading manufacturers of special cables, has developed new highly robust single-conductor (SC) and multi-conductor (MC) cables for high-voltage wiring in construction, agricultural, and special vehicles.

HV 1000 C- SC: The HV single-conductor, available in eight standard dimensions with nominal cross-sections from 6 mm² to 95 mm², meets the special requirements for safety and reliability in electrically or hybrid-driven utility vehicles. The multi-conductor version is available in dimensions from 2 x 2.50 mm² to 5 x 6.00 mm². Due to its high mechanical strength and resistance to environmental influences as well as its very good oil and temperature resistance, the HV single core solution designed for nominal voltages of up to 1,000 V AC/DC is suitable, for example, for the electrical connection of inverters and electric motors.

HV 1000 C – MC: The HV multi-conductor cable is used, for example, as a connecting cable to the cabin heater, the e-compressor or the HV heat pump in electric and hybrid vehicles. The double EMC-shielded high-voltage cables with bare copper stranding and orange colored TPE-U jacket have a low-temperature resistance down to -50°C according to DIN EN 60811-506 and withstand temperatures of up to +125°C for an operating time of up to 2,000 hours. The extremely tensile, abrasion and shear resistant outer jacket allows tight bending radii and, in many cases, eliminates the need for installation with additional protective tubing. Other quality and safety features include flame-retardant and self-extinguishing material properties in accordance with IEC 60332-1-2 as well as standardized high resistance to mud, UV, ozone, and salt water. All materials are free of harmful substances and meet RoHS criteria. In addition to the standard designs, SAB also offers gauge sizes as well as jackets in other color variants on request.

Fairfield, NJ- As an expert for special cable solutions, SAB North America looks back on decades of experience in cable manufacturing. Every SAB product is engineered to meet the application requirements of different applications and industries. Our BL marine cables with ABS and DNV type approvals expand our cable range for ship and offshore applications.

Ballast water, necessary to counterbalance ships, is taken on board all over the ocean. For a safe and economic cruise every year, billions of tons of ballast water is spread in the sea. Together with this ballast water, unwanted passengers like fish, crabs, bacteria, and microbes are transported and released at the final destination. In their new environment, they affect or even infect other animals resulting in considerable ecological and economic harm.

The IMO (International Marine Organization) worked on an international agreement that will limit or avoid such dangers, by requiring the control and management of ballast water and sediments of ships. The ballast water onboard each ship has to be cleaned and sterilized by special treatment systems so that it reaches the prescribed standard according to the agreements. Our cable materials and construction have been developed to meet international standards as well as our customer´s requirements.

For the wiring of technical equipment on ships SAB offers a range of cable products with DNV and ABS approvals. The products in our BL cable range include halogen-free, ethernet, data, control, and additional specialty cables for marine use. See our product range or Download or Brochure.

SAB’s HV Measuring cable can be used in the field of electric vehicle development wherever a protected measurement and application up to 1000 V DC in a high-voltage environment is required. It can also be used with high-voltage power electronics, HV batteries, e-motors, inverters, etc. The HV measuring cables are used in test benches and vehicles.

These flexible cables have a wide temperature range of -40°C up to + 150°C. A special safety feature is the blue inner jacket and the robust outer jacket. Cables in test vehicles are often exposed to extreme mechanical and abrasion stress. If the orange outer jacket is worn through, the visible blue inner jacket signals that the operational safety of the cable will not be guaranteed much longer and that the cable must be changed. The two black longitudinal stripes identify the cable clearly as a measuring cable that doesn't belong to the basic equipment of the vehicle and is used for testing purposes only.

HV Measuring Cable (DC) : High-voltage multi-conductor shielded cable for DC Voltage Measurement, scoop-proof

Scoop-proof testing voltage: 1000 V DC over the blue inner jacket; 5000 V AC over the blue inner jacket
Operating voltage: 1000 V DC

HV measuring cable (AC): High-voltage multi-conductor shielded cable for AC voltage measurement, scoop-proof

Scoop-proof testing voltage: 1000 V DC over the blue inner jacket; 5000 V AC over the blue inner jacket
Operating voltage: conductor/conductor: 1800 V DC conductor/conductor: 1000 V AC

It is of great importance that HV measuring cables are only used together with a suitable high voltage measuring equipment.
