PRYSMIAN Cordaflex® (N)SHTÖU (SMK)-V

The PRYSMIAN Cordaflex® (N)SHTÖU (SMK)-V is the most configuration-diverse vertical spreader cable without fiber optics — offering six distinct configurations that span three fundamentally different spreader architecture types. Where the (SMK)-V-S offers a single 36×2.5 configuration and the REEL XPRT offers four standard configurations, the (SMK)-V delivers six configurations including two that exist nowhere else in the Klaus Faber catalogue: a 49×1.0 signal-only variant for spreaders with dedicated power cables, and a 20×2.5+3×CAN-BUS+2×(2×2.5)C variant with integrated digital fieldbus communication and screened control pairs.

Not every STS crane needs ETFE insulation, 56 cores, or integrated fiber optics. The vast majority of the world's operational STS crane fleet — thousands of cranes at hundreds of terminals — uses a simple, proven, 36-core control cable on the spreader reel. That cable is the Cordaflex® (N)SHTOEU (SMK)-V-S: a single-configuration workhorse with basic EPR insulation that every port electrician can strip and terminate using standard tools, a 36×2.5 + protective conductor core count that covers the circuit requirements of standard (non-automated) spreaders, and a construction that shares the premium vertical-rated architecture (Class FS, aramide, PCP rubber, ±50°/m torsion) of its more exotic siblings.

Cordaflex® (N)SHTOEU (SMK)-V-S

Not every STS crane needs ETFE insulation, 56 cores, or integrated fiber optics. The vast majority of the world’s operational STS crane fleet — thousands of cranes at hundreds of terminals — uses a simple, proven, 36-core control cable on the spreader reel. That cable is the Cordaflex® (N)SHTOEU (SMK)-V-S: a single-configuration workhorse with basic EPR insulation that every port electrician can strip and terminate using standard tools, a 36×2.5 + protective conductor core count that covers the circuit requirements of standard (non-automated) spreaders, and a construction that shares the premium vertical-rated architecture (Class FS, aramide, PCP rubber, ±50°/m torsion) of its more exotic siblings.

SPREADERFLEX REEL XPRT (N)SHTOEU is the copper-only counterpart of the Cordaflex (SMK)-V-FO — sharing the same Class FS conductors, aramide self-supporting element, PCP rubber sheath, and 240 m/min vertical reeling capability, but without integrated fiber optics. It is designed for the large installed base of STS crane spreaders that do not require fiber optic communication — spreaders using copper-only control signals, or cranes where fiber optic data is provided through a separate dedicated cable or wireless link.
