Marine Control Cable – Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF), XLPE Insulated, Screened | CKJP96/NC

Marine Control Cable – Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF), XLPE Insulated, Screened | CKJP96/NC

This cable is designed for power, lighting, and control circuits in demanding environments such as offshore platforms, shipboard installations, and various industrial sectors including metallurgy, chemical plants, power generation, and mining.


KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • Fire Resistant: Maintains circuit integrity during a fire (IEC 60331).

  • Flame Retardant: Inhibits the spread of flame (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22).

  • Low Smoke & Zero Halogen: Minimizes smoke emission and corrosive gases (IEC 61034, IEC 60754).

  • Robust Construction: Features XLPE insulation and galvanized steel wire armour for mechanical strength and durability.

  • EMC Protection: Integrated screening provides protection against electromagnetic interference.
