What Should Be Paid Attention To In Cable Reel Shipment?

2022-11-21

Power cables are generally wound on cable reels for transportation, storage and laying. Short sections of cables below 30m can also be rolled into circles according to the minimum bending radius not less than the allowable cable, and at least four places should be tied tightly before handling. In the past, the cable reels of cables and mining cables were mostly wooden structures, but now they are mostly steel structures, because the steel structure is relatively strong and not easy to damage, which is very good for protecting cables, and this kind of cable reel can be reused, which is more economical than wooden cable reels . In the process of transporting and loading and unloading the cable drum, the key issue is not to damage the cable and not to damage the insulation of the cable. Although this is a well-known problem, it happens from time to time, so it should be taken seriously.

1. Cable reel shipment

The cable reel is generally installed by a crane. When the cable reel is transported on the vehicle, the pedicure sofa should be placed firmly and fixed firmly. The edge of the cable reel should be padded to prevent the cable reel from shaking, colliding with each other or falling over.

The cable must be inspected before transportation. The cable should be intact and the cable should be sealed tightly; the oil supply valve on the pressure box should be in the open state, and the pressure indicator should be normal; the outside of the cable should be well protected to prevent damage from foreign objects. If a problem is found, it should be dealt with before loading and transporting. Cable reels are not allowed to be loaded horizontally. Lying flat will loosen the winding of the cable and easily damage the cable and the cable reel.


2. Cable reel unloading

If there is no lifting equipment when unloading, it is strictly forbidden to push the cable reel directly off the transport vehicle. Because it is pushed down directly, not only the cable reel is damaged, but the cable is also vulnerable to mechanical damage. For smaller cable reels, a slope can be built with wooden boards, and then the cable reel is pulled by a winch or a rope and slowly rolled down the slope. When loading and unloading cable reels, it is strictly forbidden to hoist several reels at the same time.

Three, the rolling of the cable reel

The cable drum must be controlled within a small distance when rolling on the ground. The direction of rolling must be in the direction indicated on the side of the cable drum (following the direction in which the cable is wound). If it is rolled in the reverse direction, the cable will unwind and become loose and fall off

The cable reel uses safety commands, and the use of mobile cable reels is similar to the power sockets we contact every day. They are all mobile power supplies for the convenience of daily production and life. Then the safe power consumption of the mobile cable reel is similar to the power consumption of the power strip in our life.

Whether it is the precautions in the working environment or the protection measures when using the plug-in strip, both have something in common, so what are the common sense of safe electricity use that we should know? First of all, the mobile cable reel cannot be overloaded with electricity when in use.

In order to ensure that there is no overload operation in the circuit, in the mobile cable reel, in order to ensure safety, each product is equipped with an overheating overload and leakage protector, which will automatically trip after overloading.

Secondly, high-power electrical appliances are often equipped with three-core sockets, in order to achieve safe grounding during the power-on process; and in the mobile cable tray, all panels are equipped with three-hole grounding sockets.

Third, in daily life, when the mobile cable reel is in use, copper wire and iron wire cannot be used instead of fuses, nor can enameled wires be used instead of heating wires and other substitutes.

Fourth, if the power is cut off when people walk, the power switch must also be turned off during a power outage, so as to avoid accidents when the power comes in. When used in industrial places, if there is a power failure, you should contact the electrician to check and repair it before continuing to use it.

Fifth, do not place the mobile cable reel in a humid or flammable environment. Although most industrial cable reels are waterproof, staying in a humid environment for a long time will also affect their normal work. Secondly, there are flammables in the working environment, which will cause a fire hazard when the current is overloaded or the power supply sparks.
