OPGW

ZTT forms about 42,000km annual capacity in China, 20,000km in India, 12,000km in Indonesia and other 8,000km in Brazil. ZTT has become a professional company which has the biggest OPGW output and has satisfied different customers’ requirements with quickest delivery time. ZTT OPGW is mainly divided into: central-type stainless steel tube OPGW, stranded-type stainless steel tube OPGW, al-covered stainless steel tube OPGW, aluminum tube OPGW, lightning resistant central stainless steel tube OPGW with compressed wires and OPPC.

Design & Construction

Stainless steel tube OPGW: stainless steel tube is hermetically sealed by seamless welding. The tube is filled with water resistant gel. This tube provides complete protection to the fibers from longitudinal and lateral water/moisture ingress. The interstices in between the stainless steel tube and the metallic wires are filled with anti-corrosive grease for protection from corrosion.

Al-covered stainless steel tube OPGW: optical fibers are placed in a hermetically sealed stainless steel tube covered with aluminum layer forms an optical unit. The central al-covered steel tube is surrounded by single or double layers of metallic wires. Good anti-corrosion performance well suited for highly corrosive environment without requiring the use of anti-corrosive grease.


Aluminum tube OPGW: optical fibers are placed loosely in plastic tubes embedded in a hermetically sealed aluminum tube. The aluminum tube is surrounded by single or double layers of metallic wires. Material and structure are uniform with good resistance to corrosion.


Reference Standards

The products meet the international standards such as IEC60794 and IEEE1138, and can be manufactured according to customers’ requirements of standards like NBR, BS and so on.

Types & Purposes

  • Large number of fiber core OPGW:

    -Largest fiber core is 192 at present, with uniform excess length and stable performance. Longest fiber excess length is more than10‰, and with good attenuation performance.

  • Anti-corrosion OPGW:

    -after 1000h test, no dotted corrosion appears on surface of OPGW cable, the result is better than international standard.

  • Ultra-low loss OPGW:

    -Qinghai Golmud to Tibet Lhasa ±400kVDC networking project, with average loss of less than 0.172dB/km.

  • No fiber strain OPGW:

    -through process control and also fiber excess-length control, OPGW has no fiber strain at 85%RTS, and additional attenuation is low, this kind of OPGW is typically applied in North America.

Advantages

ZTT OPGW, OPPC, ADSS and other special power optic cables are comprehensively used in optical fiber communication industry of power grid net work and telecommunication. Furthermore, the cables, which its total amount is over 520,000km, have been sold to more than 120 countries, such as America, Canada, India, Poland, Thailand, Australia, Spain, South Africa, Ethiopia, Brazil, Chile, Indonesia and so on. 
It has made such many new technical records as large cross-section, big cores, large capacity, long span, ice resistance, sand, lighting resistance and ultra high voltage
