Supply cable - Symmetrical Flex drum
GP 400 SF DR – 400 Hz Reeling Cable for Motorized Cable Reels and Scissor Systems
The GP 400 SF DR is a highly flexible 400 Hz reeling cable with 7 power conductors of 35.0 mm² and 6 x 4 x 1.0 mm², developed for dynamic use on motorized cable reels - starting from a minimum drum core diameter of just 600 mm as well as in scissor systems at passenger boarding bridges or airport ground power systems. Its symmetrical structure and rugged design make it ideal for frequent winding and unwinding under continuous movement. The durable PUR outer sheath is abrasion-resistant, oil- and fuel-resistant, weatherproof and UV-stable, making it suitable for demanding outdoor environments. The cable is also halogen-free, cold flexible down to -40 °C, and complies with IEC 60332-3-24 for flame retardancy. Integrated aramid strain relief ensures mechanical durability even under high tensile loads. With a nominal voltage of 0.6/1 kV and a test voltage of 4000 V AC, it guarantees reliable 400 Hz power transmission. For fast and secure integration, the GP 400 SF DR is also available as a fully pre-assembled Plug’n’Play solution from SAB Bröckskes, including connectors and ready-to-use terminations - everything from a single source. This makes it the ideal choice for operators seeking maximum flexibility, safety, and efficiency.
