CJPFP96/NC Double-Sheathed, Steel Armored Fire Resistant Marine Power Cable – Mica/XLPE Insulated, Halogen-Free (0.6/1kV)

Product Overview

The CJPFP96/NC represents the ultimate protection class for critical marine and industrial circuits, combining certified fire resistance with maximum mechanical and environmental defense. Designed for the most severe conditions, it integrates a Mica Glass Tape + XLPE fire-survival insulation system with a double-layer Halogen-Free (SHF1) sheath and a high-strength galvanized steel wire braid armor. This construction ensures not only circuit integrity during fire emergencies per IEC 60331 but also unparalleled durability against crushing, impact, abrasion, chemicals, and moisture, making it the definitive choice for safeguarding essential power and control systems in extreme-risk locations.


Key Features & Benefits

  • Certified Fire Resistance (IEC 60331): Guarantees continued operation of vital circuits (emergency lighting, alarms, shutdown systems) under direct flame and mechanical shock for a specified duration, crucial for life safety and asset protection.

  • Maximum Mechanical & Environmental Protection: A galvanized steel wire braid armor provides supreme crush and impact resistance, while the dual-layer SHF1 sheath offers an exceptional barrier against abrasion, oils, chemicals, and harsh environmental conditions.

  • Fire-Survival Core Technology: The Mica Glass Tape layer over XLPE insulation forms a robust, heat-resistant ceramic barrier at high temperatures, maintaining electrical insulation and preventing circuit failure during a fire.

  • Enhanced Fire Safety (LSZH): Complies with IEC 60754 (Halogen Free) and IEC 61034 (Low Smoke), significantly reducing the emission of corrosive/toxic gases and smoke density to facilitate safer evacuation and minimize secondary damage.

  • Comprehensive System Integrity: Combines circuit integrity (fire resistance), flame retardancy (IEC 60332), EMI shielding (collective screen), and extreme mechanical protection in one integrated cable solution.
