Huber+Suhner reduces offshore platform weight with updated cable solution
LONDON - Huber+Suhner, a manufacturer of components and system solutions for electrical and optical connectivity, has today launched its fire-resistant Radox OFL (Oil & Gas Flexible Lightweight) cable solution – providing the offshore industry with a safe way to reduce platform weight.
Featuring a lightweight and compact design, the Radox OFL cables reduce weight and space by up to 60% when compared to other cables on the market. The cable’s small bend radius and thin wall – which is half the size of standard cables – reduces stripping time by 60%, making installation easier and quicker. This has the potential to save industrial and offshore facilities several hundred thousand dollars in structural design by overcoming space and weight restrictions.
