E-RTG Cable for Electric Rubber-Tyred Gantry Crane | 0.6/1 kV Drum Reeling

E-RTG (electric rubber-tyred gantry) drum reeling cable. 0.6/1 kV, rubber or PUR sheath, 30 N/mm² tensile, up to 240 m/min. Designed for RTG electrification projects at container terminals.

E-RTG Drum Reeling Cable for Electric Rubber-Tyred Gantry Cranes

Electric rubber-tyred gantry (E-RTG) cranes replace diesel generators with shore power — supplying power via a drum reeling cable as the crane travels along the container yard. The E-RTG cable must handle the full crane power demand over the complete travel distance, while the drum reeling system manages the cable during crane movement.

E-RTG cables are specified to the most demanding LV reeling performance class: 30 N/mm² tensile, 240 m/min travel speed (rubber version), anti-torsion braid, and GOST-R approval for projects in port markets requiring Russian standards. Bus cable or Profinet integration is available for real-time crane monitoring over the same reel cable.


Key Design Features

  • Specifically designed for container terminal E-RTG electrification
  • Power cores: 3×35 – 3×300+3×150/3 mm² Phase + split earth
  • Anti-torsion polyester braid — vulcanized between sheaths
  • Very finely stranded Class FS copper conductors
  • PROTOLON EPR insulation (compound 3GI3)
  • Rubber (PCP) or PUR halogen-free outer sheath options
  • 30 N/mm² tensile (rubber) / 25 N/mm² (PUR); 240/180 m/min travel
  • Optional: Profibus, Profinet, CAN-Bus, or Industrial Ethernet integration
