Olex Versolex Equivalent: AS/NZS 1802 Certified Type 441 Cables for Australian Coal Mining
AS/NZS 1802 standard specifies requirements for electric cables used in underground coal mines in Australia and New Zealand. Type 441 cables, as defined within this standard, are trailing cables designed for reeling and trailing applications in mining equipment such as continuous miners, shuttle cars, and roof bolters. Anhui Feichun Special Cable Co., Ltd. manufactures Type 441 cables that provide equivalent performance to established brands like Olex Versolex, fully compliant with AS/NZS 1802 certification requirements.


























![Longwall Shearer: What are the advantages of using Type 241 over Type 275 for high-vibration longwall shearer power supplies? 27 Longwall mining represents the most productive underground coal extraction method available to modern mining operations, with a single longwall face capable of producing over 5,000 tonnes of coal per hour in optimized installations. At the heart of this productivity lies the longwall shearer, a massive mobile machine that travels back and forth along the coal face, cutting coal with rotating drums while advancing through seam heights ranging from 1.6 to 7 meters. The power cables supplying electricity to these shearers operate in one of the most mechanically demanding cable applications in industrial engineering, subjected to continuous motion within cable chain systems (often referred to as "Bretby chains"), constant vibration from cutting operations, tight bending radii as the shearer traverses the face, and the harsh environmental conditions characteristic of underground coal mining.[1] (长壁开采代表了现代采矿作业可用的最具生产力的地下煤炭开采方法,单个长壁工作面在优化安装中每小时可生产超过5000吨煤炭)](https://feichuncables.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/image-665-1006x702.avif)

![Composite Screen: How does the copper/nylon braid screen in Type 241 cables handle fault currents compared to a full metallic screen? 29 Type 241 mining cables represent a specialized category of flexible power cables designed for demanding underground mining applications, continuous miner feeders, and pump supply systems operating at voltages from 1.1kV to 11kV. These cables are manufactured to comply with AS/NZS 1802:2003 standards and incorporate sophisticated screening systems that balance electrical performance, mechanical flexibility, and safety requirements.[1] (241型矿用电缆是专为严苛的地下采矿应用、连续采矿机馈线和泵供电系统设计的柔性电力电缆,工作电压为1.1kV至11kV)](https://feichuncables.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/image-662.avif)
