More-slip matt Novacavi is launching a matt PUR finished version of ROV dynamic cables to improve operational efficiency and maneuverability both in water and on deck. The finish of the matt cable offers a slippery and less sticky performance, especially when on winches out of water. This extensive customized range of matt PUR sheathed cables is designed to improve handling and avoid clinginess in use, while guaranteeing the same molding technical compatibility and steady abrasion resistance characteristics of the glossy sheathed cable version. for reliability, Novacavi’s ROV custom cables focus on addressing the needs of ROV technology development. Novacavi will show examples of realized custom projects on its stand at London’s Oceanology International in March. Engineered and manufactured

Tony Conroy, Ellis’s global sales director, said: “Stevin is a huge project for Belgian power generation, and one that really does enhance the country’s standing in terms of the availability and consumption of renewable energy.

“Having our products specified for such a vital element of a high profile project bears testament to both the work being carried out by our local distributor, NBR Nussbaumer, and the reputation we’ve earned over the years as the experts when it comes to cable cleats and the protection of cables in short circuit scenarios.” Centaur cable saddles are made from heavy duty extruded aluminum, and were initially designed and developed in response to a safety issue regarding the restraint of 100 to 160mm diameter high voltage cables up to 400kV.
