Product Overview
The CJ82SA is a streamlined, cost-effective armored marine power cable featuring a simplified construction without a separate inner sheath. It utilizes standard XLPE insulation for reliable electrical performance and is protected by a flexible tinned copper wire braid armor, all encased within a durable PVC outer sheath. This design offers a lightweight, economical solution for power, lighting, and control circuits in marine and industrial environments where standard flame retardancy (SA grade), EMI shielding, and flexible mechanical protection are required in a compact and efficient cable design.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Compact & Economical Design: The construction omits a separate inner sheath, resulting in a more streamlined, potentially lighter, and cost-effective cable structure, suitable for cost-conscious projects without compromising core functionality.
-
Flexible & Corrosion-Resistant Armor: The braided armor of tinned copper wires provides excellent flexibility for easier installation and routing, good tensile strength, and inherent corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for marine and humid atmospheres.
-
Standard Flame Retardancy (SA): Complies with IEC flame retardant standards for bunched cables (Category A), helping to inhibit the spread of flame along cable runs under defined test conditions.
-
Reliable Electrical Performance: XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) insulation ensures good dielectric properties and thermal stability for continuous operation at temperatures up to 90°C.
-
Durable External Protection: The PVC outer sheath offers essential resistance to abrasion, moisture, oils, and general environmental exposure.
