How it works
AIR BAG™’s radical new design absorbs the kinetic energy of a shock by deforming on impact. This prevents residual energy damaging sensitive elements of the cable such as the insulation and screens; a problem often associated with metal armouring, and one that can potentially prejudice the integrity of the insulation leading to a decrease in long-term reliability.
It can be applied to multicore and single core cables, is flexible and easy to install, and it’s fully compatible with traditional joints and terminations.
Depending on the specific applications in use, different architectures are possible and it provides a dramatic improvement in mechanical resistance, with no significant variation in terms of weight and rigidity.
