Spiral Vibration Damper

Spiral Vibration Damper
Spiral vibration dampers are motion-control products designed to eliminate wind vibration that can occur across a cable span. Made of weather and corrosion resistant plastic, these dampers have large spiral shaped vibration dampening sections that fit the size of the cable. A smaller clamping section gently grips the conductor. Using the recommended number of spiral dampers minimizes bending strain and protects the cable from long-term fatigue caused by breeze vibration.

Large spiral damping section sized to fit the cable and smaller gripping section gently grips the conductor
Conductor ranges are marked and color coded to indicate cable diameter size ranges
Suitable for standard and high quality span lengths

Applications.

Parts List
Standards - Applies to. Bare conductors, shielded wires and OPGW
Explanatory notes. (1) When the cable diameter is 0.461" and below, a maximum of three SVDs can be installed in one position.(2) On cables larger than 0.461" diameter, only two SVDs need to be combined in order to obtain the best damping performance.
