Product Overview
The CJ85/SC is a streamlined, high-performance marine power cable that features a simplified construction without a separate inner sheath, designed for efficiency and durability. It combines reliable XLPE insulation with a flexible tinned copper wire braid armor, all protected by a premium Cross-linked Polyolefin (SHF2) outer sheath. This design provides exceptional resistance to heat deformation, chemicals, and abrasion, while ensuring Halogen-Free, Low-Smoke (LSZH) flame retardant (SC grade) safety. Ideal for demanding marine and industrial fixed installations where space optimization, environmental toughness, and enhanced fire safety are key requirements.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Compact & Efficient Design: The absence of a separate inner sheath creates a more streamlined, lightweight, and space-efficient cable structure, facilitating easier handling and installation in confined spaces.
-
High-Performance Outer Sheath (SHF2): The Cross-linked Polyolefin (SHF2) outer sheath offers superior long-term resistance to high temperatures, deformation, cracking, chemicals, oils, and abrasion compared to standard thermoplastics, ensuring extended cable life in harsh conditions.
-
Flexible & Corrosion-Resistant Armor: A braid of tinned copper wires provides excellent flexibility for routing, good mechanical protection, and inherent corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for marine and humid environments.
-
Enhanced Fire Safety (LSZH): As an SC-grade cable, it is Halogen Free and Low Smoke (LSZH), significantly reducing the emission of corrosive/toxic gases and smoke density in case of fire to enhance personnel safety and protect equipment.
-
Reliable Electrical Core: XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) insulation ensures stable electrical characteristics and thermal endurance for continuous operation at 90°C.
