Key Performance Characteristics
-
Superior EPR Insulation: Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) provides excellent dielectric strength, high flexibility over a wide temperature range, and outstanding long-term resistance to heat, moisture, and electrical stress.
-
Halogen-Free Enhanced Safety: The cable is constructed with halogen-free, low-smoke materials (IEC 60754 & IEC 61034) and is flame retardant (IEC 60332). This minimizes the emission of corrosive gases and dense smoke in a fire, enhancing safety for personnel in confined spaces.
-
High Flexibility & Lightweight: Designed with flexible Class 5/6 conductors and no armor, this cable offers exceptional ease of handling and installation in conduits, cable trays, and control panels.
-
Good Environmental Resistance: The thermoplastic polyolefin (SHF1) sheath provides reliable protection against moisture and offers good resistance to abrasion.
Standards & Compliance
This cable is designed and manufactured in accordance with key international marine and safety standards:
-
IEC 60092-350, 353 (General construction and requirements)
-
IEC 60228 (Conductors)
-
IEC 60092-360 (Insulation and sheath materials)
-
IEC 60332-1 & IEC 60332-3-22 (Flame retardancy tests)
Typical Applications
This flexible cable is ideally suited for installations within protected enclosures or areas with minimal risk of mechanical damage:
-
Marine & Offshore: Internal wiring for control panels, switchboards, instrumentation, lighting, and auxiliary power circuits within accommodation areas and control rooms on ships and offshore structures.
-
Industrial: General power and control wiring in industrial settings where halogen-free, flame-retardant, and flexible cabling is required for control systems and machinery panels.
