Bending Test Apparatus for Mineral Insulated Cables – Simulation of repeated operational bending according to IEC 60702-1, IEC 60684-2, BS 6387, BS 8491

ZONSKY's Mineral Insulated Cable Bending Test Apparatus simulates repeated operational bending to guarantee the long-term flexibility and safety of mineral-insulated cables.

Product applications: Specifically engineered for copper-core or copper-alloy sheathed mineral-insulated general wiring cables. Perfectly optimized for testing cables rated at 500V and 750V. Performs flexibility and fatigue testing by subjecting cables to continuous, controlled bending cycles to identify material fatigue early. Monitors stress distribution to ensure the internal insulation stays intact and prevents inner conductor deformation.

Key features: Flexibility and fatigue testing, insulation and core protection monitoring, targeted cable specifications.

Complies with standards: IEC 60702-1:2002, IEC 60684-2:2011, BS 6387:2013, BS 8491:2008.
