Abstract: A cable includes a conductor and a first semiconductive layer arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the conductor. An insulating layer is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the first semiconductive layer. A second semiconductive layer is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the insulating. A conductive screen is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the second semiconductive layer. A heat block layer is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the conductive screen. The heat block layer includes a layer made of a fire resistant or a flame retardant halogen-free material. A rubberized glass fiber tape is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the heat block layer. An outer sheath is arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the rubberized glass fiber tape.

Abstract: A system for automatically inspecting matter for varying composition comprises one or more detection stations through which one or more streams of matter are advanced and particular materials therein are detected through their diffusely reflected IR spectra, if any, and/or through their variation of an electromagnetic field by their metallic portions, if any. A row of light sources distributed across the overall width of one or more belt conveyors may cause desired portions of the stream to reflect light diffusely onto a part-toroidal mirror extending over that overall width, whence the light is reflected, by a rotating, polygonal mirror through optical filters dedicated to differing IR wavelengths, onto detectors the data output of which is utilized in controlling solenoid valves operating air jet nozzles which separate-out the desired portions.
