Dive into the world of best solutions for OPGW

 Optical ground wires (OPGW) are used by the electric utility sector and are deployed in electrical transmission lines. Optical ground wires' conductive part aids to serve the bond of adjacent towers & offers protection to high-voltage conductors, especially from lightning strikes. There are a number of products used for OPGW to allow it to run smoothly. Do not try to compromise the quality while purchasing optical ground wires, their fittings and many other products that help OPGW to perform well. Contact only a reputed supplier in the Middle East and GCC region. Continue reading this blog to unleash more about OPGW.

 


What are optical ground wires?

 

Before heading to the solutions vital for OPGW, know about OPGW. OPGWs (better known as optical ground wires) is a kind of wires or cables which are used in our transmission line construction. OPGW is also called optical fiber composite overhead ground wire. They can also serve as the grounding wire and also for communication applications. Optical ground wires consist of a tubular structure (one or even more optical fibers in them) and are surrounded by layers of aluminum & steel wire. Let us see some of the vital products supplied by us which are necessary for OPGW:


1. OPGW fittings


There are different types of OPGW fittings that are used in Optical ground wire operation systems and they are mentioned below:


a) Drop Cable Storage Bracket


We supply drop cable storage brackets that can efficiently store slack cables in pole mount, aerial, and wall entrance installations. Our drop cable storage brackets are constructed with molded nut pockets along with a hanger that aids in easing the installation process.


b) Vibration damper


These dampers help in the reduction of aeolian vibrations which are caused mainly by wind passing through the line. Use our vibration damper on OPGW & conductors.


c) Suspension assemblies


The suspension assemblies supplied by us offer the best cable & fiber protection, especially at the support point. The unification of Outer Rods, boltless housing, and structural Reinforcing Rods lessen the compression. We supply suspension assemblies that are constructed with elastomer inserts and that help in resisting ozone attacks, extreme high & low pressure, weathering etc.


d) Optical tension devices


Our optical Tension Devices can pull the OPGW cable to the final sag tension. When once the last sag gets achieved, the permanent dead-end device needs to be installed quickly. Our supplied tension devices are simple in structure, quite reasonable in design & can operate for a long time.


2. OPGW joint boxes


OPGW joint boxes are splicing boxes that keep the fiber core spices. Have a glance at the features of our supplied OPGW joint boxes:

  • These OPGW joint boxes offer the best protection for your optic cable joints. 
  • The enclosure boxes are used for strand-mount and aerial locations.
  • They have a very good impact on the quality of optical cable lines and elevate their service lives.
  • The thixotropic gel fills the stainless steel tube in order to protect the fiber optics from severe damage.
  • You can install them by anchoring them to any type of pole by using simple stainless steel tape.


You can reach out to one of the leading suppliers of OPGW joint boxes in Dubai and the UAE.


In doubt there are a number of suppliers of OPGW solutions in the Middle East and GCC region but the way Dutco Tennant LLC caters to the needs of users in the electrical arena. Our experienced and specialized team is always there to help you out. You can definitely mail us at info@dutcotennant.com to get more details about the products. It is a little bit tough to write about so many products in one blog but do not worry, keep your eyes intact here for our next blog dealing with other best solutions.

A Closer Look at the Function of Baggage Scanners in Enhancing Security

  In an era where security is paramount, the role of Baggage Scanner in ensuring safety cannot be overstated. With the increasing need for stringent security measures, especially in the domain of air travel, Baggage Scanners have emerged as silent protectors of our safety. This blog post embarks on a journey to explore the profound evolution and surprisingly diverse applications of these scanners, with a special spotlight on the innovative Baggage Scanners offered by Dutco Tennant LLC. The Evolution of Baggage Scanners: Baggage scanners have come a long way since their inception. The first X-ray baggage scanner was developed in the early 1990s, revolutionizing airport security. These scanners employ X-ray technology to provide a detailed image of the contents of a passenger's luggage, allowing security personnel to identify any suspicious items. Over the years, baggage scanners have become more efficient and accurate. Dutco Tennant LLC, a pioneer in the field, has played a signifi...

How Boiler Water Treatment Chemicals Play A Major Role to Boost Feed Water Purity?

  Boilers play a pivotal role in powering various operations, from generating electricity to producing steam for heating and manufacturing when it comes to industrial processes. However, the efficiency and longevity of boilers are heavily reliant on the quality of their feed water.  Contaminants present in feed water can lead to corrosion, scale buildup, and reduced efficiency. Fortunately, the use of boiler water treatment chemicals offers a robust solution to combat these issues and optimise boiler performance. In this blog, we shed light to the importance of using these water treatment solutions . Understanding the Importance of Feed Water Purity Feed water serves as the lifeblood of boilers, providing the necessary substance for steam generation. Yet, this seemingly innocuous fluid can harbour a myriad of impurities, including dissolved minerals, suspended solids, organic matter, and gases.  Left untreated, these contaminants can wreak havoc on boiler systems, causing...
