FAQs:
What is the primary application of the Polyurethane Subsea Cable Bend Restrictor?
It is designed to provide essential overbending protection for submarine cables at the lower ports of offshore wind power I-pipe and J-pipe installations, typically installed on buoyancy modules outside marine riser columns.
What material is used and what are its key characteristics?
It is made from premium polyurethane, which offers excellent elasticity, corrosion resistance, superior resistance to hydrolysis and insulating properties, a tensile strength of ≥45MPa, and a density of ≤1.2×10³kg/m³ to avoid adding underwater weight.
How is the bend restrictor installed and what are its design features?
It features a semi-annular design with female and male ends that connect via a snap ring and groove system. The modular design with adjustable length and basic units of 1.0m-2.0m facilitates easier handling and installation on-site.
What is the expected lifespan and performance in marine conditions?
The bend restrictor is engineered for a durability of over 50 years in submarine environments, with capabilities to withstand 8t lateral pressure, protect against anchor shocks without cable damage, and resist abrasion even under conditions like ground or rock subsidence.
