P-Series MSHA Mining Cable

ACCESSOR TRUNK CABLES (P1209) FOR MINING & MSHA AREAS

Conspec’s P-Series MSHA Mining Cables are a four or six-conductor power/data transmission cable approved for all mines located in the United States. Intended for connectivity within your Atmospheric Monitoring System (AMS), P-Series cables are certified for use in MSHA classified locations. 

The P-Series Cables are comprised of four or six conductors (see below), protected by a waterproof PVC jacket. Two/four lines are for data communication (transmitting and receiving), and two are for power (common and power).

With five available cable types, Conspec offers accessor trunk cables for every mining application:

  • P1207 Standard cable – Four-conductor cable suitable for general applications and power requirements in areas that demand extra protection.
  • P1208 Heavy-duty cable – Four-conductor cable designed for higher electrical loads.
  • P1209 Heavy-duty shielded cable – Four-conductor cable that provides additional protection for demanding environments.
  • P1209-TC RS485 Cable – Four-conductor cable with two drain wires designed for Modbus Communication purposes.
  • P1210 High speed heavy-duty shielded cable – Six-conductor cable with shielding and stainless armor braid for use in harsh environments when faster communication rates are required.
PRODUCT FEATURES
  • Single-Trunk Communication Architecture – A compact four/six-wire trunk cable provides the only communication line required, eliminating extensive hard wiring and simplifying system installation.
  • High-Capacity Parallel Connectivity – Accessors connect in parallel and can be placed anywhere along the trunk, supporting up to 128 Accessors and as many as 1,000 control and monitoring points.
  • Long-Distance Data Transmission – Dedicated transmit and receive lines support reliable communication up to 8,000 feet, extendable to over six miles using Trunk Expander cards.
  • Cost-Effective Mine-Wide Coverage – A single trunk covers large underground areas without remote field stations, reducing infrastructure costs while maintaining accurate, timely communication.
