- the cable comprises a very thick layer of polyethylene, at least 35mm thick, which is not flame-retardant, but rather easily combustible.
- the cable is made flame-retardant by applying a thin external fire protection layer. If the thin external fire protection layer is damaged, there is a risk that the underlying polyethylene layer will be set on fire. Due to the large proportion of non-flame-retardant polyethylene in the total cable volume, a Spread fire quickly along the cable as there is a lot of combustible material available. This is a security risk.
- a cable for movable electrical loads is known.
- a powdery separating layer made of stearate or cellulose is attached between the insulated wires and the inner jacket, which ensures relative mobility between the wires and the inner jacket.

- the cable according to the invention preferably comprises at least two electrical conductors which, in a further preferred embodiment, are each surrounded by a shield. Cables according to the invention can be used in different areas for different applications. Cables according to the invention can be equipped with optical conductors or electrical conductors or a combination thereof.
- the outer jacket is flame-retardant in accordance with the IEC 60332-1-2 standard.

- ATH aluminum trihydrate
- MDH magnesium dihydrate
- Metal hydroxides such as aluminum hydroxide or magnesium hydroxide split off water in an endothermic process in the event of a fire.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kabel, insbesondere ein Kabel zum Anschluss von Photovoltaikmodulen, welches zur Verlegung in feuchten Umgebungen bzw. in Umgebungen, in welchen das Kabel Feuchtigkeit ausgesetzt ist, geeignet ist.The invention relates to a cable, in particular a cable for connecting photovoltaic modules, which is suitable for laying in damp environments or in environments in which the cable is exposed to moisture.
Elektrische oder optische Kabel und Leitungen sollen in der praktischen Anwendung unterschiedlichen Einwirkungen, insbesondere mechanischen und chemischen Einwirkungen standhalten. Für diverse Anwendungsbereiche wird zudem eine gute Feuerfestigkeit der Kabel für den Funktionserhalt im Brandfall gefordert. In der DIN 4102 wird der Funktionserhalt von Kabelkanälen in Klassen unterteilt. Die Klassenbezeichnung richtet sich wie folgt nach der Dauer innerhalb der der Funktionserhalt gewährleistet sein soll. Kabel und Leitungen, die für den Funktionserhalt im Brandfall eingesetzt werden, weisen ein Brennverhalten nach IEC 60332-1 (flammwidrig) oder IEC 60332-3 (hoch flammwidrig) auf.In practical use, electrical or optical cables and lines should withstand different influences, in particular mechanical and chemical influences. For various areas of application, good fire resistance of the cables is also required in order to maintain functionality in the event of fire. In DIN 4102, the functional integrity of cable ducts is divided into classes. The class designation is based on the duration within which functional integrity is to be guaranteed as follows. Cables and lines that are used to maintain functionality in the event of fire have a burning behavior in accordance with IEC 60332-1 (flame-retardant) or IEC 60332-3 (highly flame-retardant).
Die einzelnen Funktionseinheiten des Kabels, der elektrischen oder optischen Leiter, der Leiterisolationen, allfälliger Abschirmungen und des Kabelmantels, sind daher entsprechend den Anforderungen auszugestalten.The individual functional units of the cable, the electrical or optical conductor, the conductor insulation, any shielding and the cable jacket must therefore be designed in accordance with the requirements.
Hohe Anforderungen an die Langzeitbeständigkeit bestehen insbesondere bei Kabeln, die an Photovoltaikmodule angeschlossen werden, da Dauerbetrieb über mehrere Jahre (mit hoher Gleichstromlast) gewährleistet sein soll. Die Kabel müssen zudem halogenfrei und flammbeständig sein. In diesem Anwendungsbereich werden Kabel oft im Erdreich verlegt. Das Erdreich ist von Natur aus mit Feuchtigkeit durchsetzt, so dass die verlegten Kabel - insbesondere deren Aussenmantel - oft dauernd einer hohen Feuchtigkeit und Nässe ausgesetzt sind. Die Feuchtigkeit kann das Kabel auf diverse Arten schädigen. Z.B. besteht die Gefahr, dass wasserlösliche Zusatzstoffe im Aussenmantel mit der Zeit ausgewaschen werden. Zusatzstoffe, z.B. Flammschutzmittel, werden dem Aussenmantel zugesetzt, um eine gewünschte Eigenschaft und/oder Beständigkeit des Grundmaterials zu verbessern. Werden diese Zusatzstoffe ausgewaschen, gehen die betreffenden Eigenschaften, insbesondere die Beständigkeit, verloren, so dass ein bestimmungsgemässer Betrieb des Kabels nicht mehr möglich ist und die gestellten Anforderungen nicht mehr erfüllt werden.There are high demands on long-term stability, especially in the case of cables that are connected to photovoltaic modules, since continuous operation over several years (with a high direct current load) should be guaranteed. The cables must also be halogen-free and flame-resistant. In this area of application, cables are often laid underground. The soil is naturally permeated with moisture, so that the cables laid - especially their outer sheath - are often constantly exposed to high levels of moisture and wetness. The moisture can affect the cable in various ways damage. For example, there is a risk that water-soluble additives in the outer jacket will be washed out over time. Additives, for example flame retardants, are added to the outer jacket in order to improve a desired property and / or resistance of the base material. If these additives are washed out, the properties in question, in particular the resistance, are lost, so that the cable can no longer be operated as intended and the requirements are no longer met.
Die Dauerbelastung durch Feuchtigkeit kann auch die Isolationseigenschaften des Aussenmantels und/oder der Isolationsschicht(en) im Inneren des Kabels beeinträchtigen, so dass es zu Fehlerströmen, insbesondere Kriechströmen, und einem damit verbundenen Ausfall der mit dem Kabel verbundenen Anlage kommen kann. Bei Kabeln, die in der Kommunikationstechnik auftreten, können Signalstörungen, wie eine erhöhte Dämpfung oder ein Übersprechen, auftreten.The permanent exposure to moisture can also impair the insulation properties of the outer jacket and / or the insulation layer (s) inside the cable, so that fault currents, in particular leakage currents, and the associated failure of the system connected to the cable can occur. In the case of cables used in communication technology, signal interference, such as increased attenuation or crosstalk, can occur.
Feuchtigkeit bzw. Wasser kann bei längerer Lagerung des Kabels in feuchter oder nasser Umgebung quer zur Kabellängsachse ins Kabelinnere diffundieren und die innenliegenden Kabelbestandteile schädigen.If the cable is stored for a long time in a damp or wet environment, moisture or water can diffuse into the interior of the cable transversely to the longitudinal axis of the cable and damage the internal cable components.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein verbessertes Kabel zu schaffen, das in feuchten Umgebungen, insbesondere im Erdreich, verlegbar ist.The present invention is therefore based on the object of creating an improved cable that can be laid in damp environments, in particular in the ground.
Insbesondere soll das Kabel langzeitbeständig gegen Feuchtigkeit und Wasser sein und die Querdiffusion von Wasser und Feuchtigkeit ins Kabelinnere minimieren.In particular, the cable should be long-term resistant to moisture and water and minimize the transverse diffusion of water and moisture into the interior of the cable.
Ferner soll das Kabel flammwidrig gemäss IEC 60332-1-2 sein.Furthermore, the cable should be flame-retardant in accordance with IEC 60332-1-2.
Zudem soll das Kabel einfach, kostengünstig und in wenigen Schritten gefertigt werden können.In addition, it should be possible to manufacture the cable simply, inexpensively and in a few steps.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Kabel gelöst, welches die in Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale aufweist. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in weiteren Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved with a cable which has the features specified in
Das Kabel, das insbesondere zum Anschluss von Photovoltaikmodulen an ein Energienetzwerk geeignet ist, umfasst zumindest einen elektrischen und/oder zumindest einen optischen Leiter, zumindest eine Isolationsschicht, welche den zumindest einen Leiter umschliesst, sowie einen Aussenmantel, welcher die vorgenannten den Leiter und die Isolationsschicht umschliesst.The cable, which is particularly suitable for connecting photovoltaic modules to an energy network, comprises at least one electrical and / or at least one optical conductor, at least one insulation layer that encloses the at least one conductor, and an outer jacket that encloses the aforementioned conductor and the insulation layer encloses.
Erfindungsgemäss ist zwischen dem Aussenmantel und der Isolationsschicht eine Diffusionssperrschicht angeordnet. Die Diffusionssperrschicht ist so ausgelegt, dass die Querdiffusion von Wasser und Feuchtigkeit ins Innere des Kabels verhindert oder zumindest deutlich reduziert wird. Vorzugsweise wird eine Reduktion der Diffusion von Wasser und Feuchtigkeit um zumindest einen Faktor 100, weiter bevorzugt um zumindest einen Faktor 1000 im Vergleich zu einem Kabel ohne Diffusionssperrschicht erreicht. Durch die Verhinderung oder zumindest die starke Reduktion des Eindringens von Wasser und Feuchtigkeit ins Innere des Kabels werden die innenliegenden Kabelbestandteile, insbesondere elektrische Leiter und die Isolationsschicht, vor Schädigung und vorzeitiger Alterung geschützt, wodurch sich die Einsatzdauer des Kabels verlängert. Insbesondere bei Kommunikationskabeln können Fehlfunktionen, wie eine erhöhte Dämpfung, ein Übersprechen, Energieverluste oder auch sporadisch auftretende Störungen, die schwierig zu lokalisieren sind, vermieden werden.According to the invention, a diffusion barrier layer is arranged between the outer jacket and the insulation layer. The diffusion barrier layer is designed in such a way that the transverse diffusion of water and moisture into the interior of the cable is prevented or at least significantly reduced. Preferably, a reduction in the diffusion of water and Moisture reached by at least a factor of 100, more preferably by at least a factor of 1000, compared to a cable without a diffusion barrier layer. By preventing or at least greatly reducing the penetration of water and moisture into the interior of the cable, the internal cable components, in particular electrical conductors and the insulation layer, are protected from damage and premature aging, which extends the service life of the cable. Malfunctions, such as increased attenuation, crosstalk, energy losses or even sporadic disturbances that are difficult to localize, can be avoided in particular in the case of communication cables.
Durch entsprechende Dimensionierung des Kabels können dessen Eigenschaften vorteilhaft gewählt werden. Zudem können der Herstellungsaufwand und die Materialkosten reduziert werden. In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist die Diffusionssperrschicht dünner als die Isolationsschicht und/oder dünner als der Aussenmantel. Durch die Verwendung einer dünnen Diffusionssperrschicht wird nur ein Minimum an einfach brennbarem Material eingesetzt, so dass im Brandfall nur ein kleiner Volumenanteil des Kabels brennbar ist. Insbesondere bei einer mechanischen Beschädigung des vorzugsweise brandbeständigen, flammwidrigen oder flammhemmenden Aussenmantels kann so die Betriebssicherheit des Kabels erhöht werden.The properties of the cable can advantageously be selected by appropriately dimensioning the cable. In addition, the manufacturing effort and the material costs can be reduced. In a preferred embodiment, the diffusion barrier layer is thinner than the insulation layer and / or thinner than the outer jacket. By using a thin diffusion barrier layer, only a minimum of easily combustible material is used, so that in the event of a fire only a small proportion of the volume of the cable is combustible. In particular, in the event of mechanical damage to the preferably fire-resistant, flame-retardant or flame-retardant outer jacket, the operational reliability of the cable can thus be increased.
Vorzugsweise weist die Diffusionssperrschicht eine nominelle Dicke von zumindest 0.1 mm auf. Die Isolationsschicht und der Aussenmantel weisen vorzugweise eine nominelle Dicke von zumindest 0.5 mm auf. Vorzugsweise ist die Dicke von Diffusionssperrsicht, Isolationsschicht und Aussenmantel auf den Querschnitt des elektrischen Leiters abgestimmt und nimmt mit steigendem Querschnitt des oder der elektrischen Leiter gegebenenfalls proportional zu.The diffusion barrier layer preferably has a nominal thickness of at least 0.1 mm. The insulation layer and the outer jacket preferably have a nominal thickness of at least 0.5 mm. The thickness of the diffusion barrier layer, insulation layer and outer jacket is preferably matched to the cross section of the electrical conductor and increases with increasing cross-section of the electrical conductor or conductors, possibly proportional to.
Aussenmantel, Diffusionssperrschicht und Isolationsschicht sind bevorzugt Extrusionsprodukte. Vorzugsweise werden alle Schichten auf einer Kabelextrusionslinie gefertigt, was eine effiziente Produktion ermöglicht.The outer jacket, diffusion barrier layer and insulation layer are preferably extrusion products. All layers are preferably manufactured on a cable extrusion line, which enables efficient production.
In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung werden die Isolationsschicht und die Diffusionssperrschicht durch Koextrusion in einem einzelnen Fertigungsschritt gefertigt bzw. auf die innen liegenden Materialien aufgebracht. In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung werden die Diffusionssperrschicht und der Aussenmantel durch Koextrusion in einem einzelnen Fertigungsschritt gefertigt bzw. auf die innen liegenden Materialien aufgebracht.In a further preferred embodiment, the insulation layer and the diffusion barrier layer are manufactured by coextrusion in a single production step or are applied to the internal materials. In a further preferred embodiment, the diffusion barrier layer and the outer jacket are manufactured by coextrusion in a single production step or are applied to the internal materials.
Vorzugsweise ist die Diffusionssperrschicht aus einem nicht-polaren und/oder hydrophoben Polymermaterial gefertigt. Durch die Verwendung eines nicht-polaren und/oder hydrophoben Materials wird die Diffusion selbst durch feine Poren oder Fertigungsfehlstellen in der Diffusionssperrschicht aufgrund von Kapillarkräften reduziert. Die Diffusionssperrschicht ist so gefertigt, dass eine ununterbrochene, möglichst defektfreie Schicht ausgebildet wird.The diffusion barrier layer is preferably made from a non-polar and / or hydrophobic polymer material. The use of a non-polar and / or hydrophobic material reduces the diffusion even through fine pores or manufacturing defects in the diffusion barrier layer due to capillary forces. The diffusion barrier layer is manufactured in such a way that an uninterrupted layer that is as defect-free as possible is formed.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung umfasst das Polymermaterial für die Diffusionssperrschicht ausschliesslich oder mehrheitlich Polyolefine, insbesondere Polyethylen, Polypropylen oder Mischungen von Polyethylen und Polypropylen. In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist das Polymermaterial für die Diffusionssperrschicht vernetzt, vorzugsweise durch Elektronenstrahlvernetzung und/oder Silanvernetzung. Durch die Vernetzung wird die Langzeitstabilität verbessert.In a preferred embodiment, the polymer material for the diffusion barrier layer comprises exclusively or mainly polyolefins, in particular polyethylene, polypropylene or mixtures of polyethylene and polypropylene. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the polymer material for the diffusion barrier layer is crosslinked, preferably by electron beam crosslinking and / or silane crosslinking. Networking improves long-term stability.
Vorzugsweise umfasst das erfindungsgemässe Kabel zumindest zwei elektrische Leiter, welche, in einer weiter bevorzugten Ausgestaltung, je durch eine Abschirmung umfasst sind. Erfindungsgemässe Kabel können in verschiedenen Bereichen für verschiedene Anwendungen eingesetzt werden. Erfindungsgemässe Kabel können mit optischen Leitern oder elektrischen Leitern oder einer Kombination davon ausgerüstet werden.The cable according to the invention preferably comprises at least two electrical conductors which, in a further preferred embodiment, are each surrounded by a shield. Cables according to the invention can be used in different areas for different applications. Cables according to the invention can be equipped with optical conductors or electrical conductors or a combination thereof.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ist der Aussenmantel flammwidrig nach der Norm IEC 60332-1-2 ausgeführt. Hierzu sind dem Polymermaterial für den Aussenmantel flammhemmende Additive, vorzugsweise Aluminiumhydroxid, Magnesiumhydroxid, Zinkborate, Ammoniumsulfat oder Phosphat-basierte Materialien, beigemischt. Vorzugsweise sind diese Additive zumindest weitgehend halogenfrei.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the outer jacket is flame-retardant in accordance with the IEC 60332-1-2 standard. For this purpose, flame-retardant additives, preferably aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, zinc borates, ammonium sulfate or phosphate-based materials, are added to the polymer material for the outer jacket. These additives are preferably at least largely halogen-free.
Um die flammhemmenden oder flammwidrigen Eigenschaften des Kabels im Brandfall zu verbessern, sind in einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung dem Aussenmantel und dem Innenmantel und/oder der Isolationsschicht flammhemmende oder flammwidrige Additive beigefügt. Selbst wenn der Aussenmantel durch Flammeneinwirkung komplett zerstört ist, kann der Innenmantel und/oder die Isolationsschicht die elektrische Leitung noch eine längere Zeit vor Beschädigung schützen. Vorzugsweise sind sowohl das flammhemmende oder flammwidrige Additiv für den Aussenmantel als auch das flammhemmende oder flammwidrige Additiv für den Innenmantel und/oder die Isolationsschicht zumindest weitgehend halogenfrei.In order to improve the flame-retardant or flame-retardant properties of the cable in the event of fire, in a further preferred embodiment, flame-retardant or flame-retardant additives are added to the outer jacket and the inner jacket and / or the insulation layer. Even if the outer jacket is completely destroyed by the action of a flame, the inner jacket and / or the insulation layer can protect the electrical line from damage for a longer period of time. Both the flame-retardant or flame-retardant additive for the outer jacket and the flame-retardant or flame-retardant additive for the inner jacket and / or the insulation layer are preferably at least largely halogen-free.
In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung umfassen der Aussenmantel und der Innenmantel und/oder die Isolationsschicht unterschiedliche flammhemmende oder flammwidrige Additive. Besonders bevorzugt umfasst der Innenmantel und/oder die Isolationsschicht wenigstens ein hochwertigeres Additiv, welches bessere flammwidrige oder flammhemmende Eigenschaften ergibt, als Additive, die dem Aussenmantel zugefügt werden. Hochwertigere Additive, mit denen ausgezeichnete flammwidrige oder flammhemmende Eigenschaften erzielt werden, sind in der Regel teurer als Additive mit weniger guten technischen Eigenschaften. Da das Additiv im Aussenmantel mit der Zeit ausgewaschen werden kann, ist die Verwendung eines hochwertigen Additivs im Aussenmantel für lange Betriebsdauern weniger nützlich, da mit dem Abbau der Additive die ursprünglichen Eigenschaften des Aussenmantels und somit des Kabels unvorteilhaft verändert werden. Erfindungsgemäss werden hochwertige Additive daher wenigstens einer der vom Aussenmantel umschlossenen Schichten, z.B. dem Innenmantel und/oder weiteren Isolationsschichten zugegeben. Durch die Diffusionssperrschicht werden der Innenmantel und/oder die weiteren Isolationsschichten, die mit dem hochwertigeren Additiv versehen sind, langfristig besser geschützt, so dass das hochwertige Additiv und die damit verbundenen hochwertigen Eigenschaften des Kabels länger konserviert werden. Die Verwendung des wenigstens einen hochwertigen Additivs im Innenmantel und/oder der weiteren Isolationsschicht führt im Vergleich zum Einsatz dieses hochwertigen Additivs im Aussenmantel zu einer Reduktion der Fertigungskosten.In a preferred embodiment, the outer jacket and the inner jacket and / or the insulation layer comprise different flame-retardant or flame-retardant additives. The inner jacket and / or the insulation layer particularly preferably comprises at least one higher quality additive, which gives better flame-retardant or flame-retardant properties than additives that are added to the outer jacket. Higher-quality additives, with which excellent flame-retardant or flame-retardant properties are achieved, are usually more expensive than additives with less good technical properties. Since the additive in the outer sheath can be washed out over time, the use of a high-quality additive in the outer sheath is less useful for long periods of operation, as the degradation of the additives disadvantageously changes the original properties of the outer sheath and thus of the cable. According to the invention, high-quality additives are therefore added to at least one of the layers enclosed by the outer jacket, for example the inner jacket and / or further insulation layers. Due to the diffusion barrier layer, the inner jacket and / or the further insulation layers, which are provided with the higher quality additive, are better protected in the long term, so that the high quality additive and the associated high quality properties of the cable are preserved for longer. The use of the at least one high-quality additive in the inner jacket and / or the further insulation layer leads to a reduction in production costs compared to the use of this high-quality additive in the outer jacket.
Als Additive werden vorzugsweise Metallhydroxide verwendet. In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung umfassen der Aussenmantel Aluminiumtrihydrat (ATH) und der Innenmantel und/oder die Isolationsschicht Magnesiumdihydrat (MDH).Metal hydroxides are preferably used as additives. In a preferred embodiment, the outer jacket comprises aluminum trihydrate (ATH) and the inner jacket and / or the insulation layer comprise magnesium dihydrate (MDH).
Metallhydroxide wie Aluminiumhydroxid oder Magnesiumhydroxid spalten im Brandfall in einem endothermen Prozess Wasser ab. Der endotherme Umwandlungsprozess benötigt je nach Quelle des ATH oder MDH zwischen 1000 und 1300 J/g. Die Reaktion läuft bei ATH ab ca. 200°C, bei MDH ab ca. 300°C ab.Metal hydroxides such as aluminum hydroxide or magnesium hydroxide split off water in an endothermic process in the event of a fire. The endothermic conversion process requires between 1000 and 1300 J / g, depending on the source of the ATH or MDH. With ATH the reaction takes place from approx. 200 ° C, with MDH from approx. 300 ° C.
ATH wird daher oft in Materialien mit Verarbeitungstemperaturen unter 220°C, eingesetzt, während MDH für höhere Verarbeitungstemperaturen bis 300°C eingesetzt wird. Für die vorliegende Verwendung ist jedoch wesentlich, dass das Additiv mit der höheren Umwandlungstemperatur, vorzugsweise MDH, den inneren Schichten noch bei höheren Temperaturen Flammschutz gewährt und dazu durch den Aussenmantel mit dessen Additiven unterstützt wird.ATH is therefore often used in materials with processing temperatures below 220 ° C, while MDH is used for higher processing temperatures up to 300 ° C. For the present use, however, it is essential that the additive with the higher transformation temperature, preferably MDH, provides the inner layers with flame protection even at higher temperatures and is supported by the outer jacket with its additives.

In a further preferred embodiment, the at least one first flame-retardant additive is subject to a conversion process at a lower temperature than the at least one second or third flame-retardant additive in the event of a fire.
Das erste flammwidrige Additiv ist vorzugsweise ATH oder umfasst einen überwiegenden Anteil von ATH und das zweite schlammwidrige Additiv ist vorzugsweise MDH oder umfasst einen überwiegenden Anteil von MDH. Sofern zwei innere Schichten bzw. eine mittlere und eine innerste Schicht vorgesehen sind, so umfasst die innerste Schicht vorzugsweise ein hochwertiges Metallhydroxid oder Metallhydroxid-Gemisch, vorzugsweise MDH, und die mittlere Schicht ein Metallhydroxid-Gemisch mit einem hochwertigen ersten Metallhydroxid, vorzugsweise MDH, und einem weniger hochwertigen zweiten Metallhydroxid, vorzugsweise ATH, die vorzugsweise in einem Verhältnis im Bereich von 40 zu 60 bis 60 zu 40 gemischt sind.The first flame-retardant additive is preferably ATH or comprises a predominant portion of ATH and the second sludge-resistant additive is preferably MDH or comprises a predominant portion of MDH. If two inner layers or a middle and an innermost layer are provided, the innermost layer preferably comprises a high quality metal hydroxide or metal hydroxide mixture, preferably MDH, and the middle layer a metal hydroxide mixture with a high quality first metal hydroxide, preferably MDH, and a lower quality second metal hydroxide, preferably ATH, which are preferably mixed in a ratio in the range of 40:60 to 60:40.
