Product Overview
The CKJVP90/SA is a heavy-duty, screened and armored marine control cable designed for applications requiring robust electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection and maximum mechanical strength in a streamlined construction. It integrates XLPE insulation, an effective electrical screening layer, and a protective galvanized steel wire armor beneath a single PVC inner sheath (with no outer oversheath). This design is ideal for installations where the armor needs to be accessible for grounding and where superior crush resistance and EMI shielding are critical, all while meeting IEC 60092 flame retardant standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Dual Shielding & Armor: Combines a tinned copper braid or Alu/Polyester tape screen for EMI/RFI protection with a galvanized steel wire braid armor for outstanding mechanical protection against impact, crushing, and rodent damage. The exposed armor facilitates easy grounding.
-
Streamlined, Robust Build: The single-layer PVC inner sheath provides primary containment and basic chemical resistance. Paired with high-performance XLPE insulation (rated for 90°C), it ensures durability in demanding environments.
-
Certified Flame Retardancy: Complies with IEC 60332 standards for flame retardancy, suitable for use in bunched cable installations.

Applications
This cable is specified for critical control and instrumentation circuits where both signal integrity and extreme physical protection are required, and where armor grounding is part of the system design:
-
Marine & Offshore: Control systems for propulsion, dynamic positioning, and vital machinery in ship engine rooms and on offshore platforms, particularly in cable trays or conduits where the armor serves as the ground path.
-
Heavy Industry: Motor control centers, PLC systems, and process instrumentation in mining, power plants, and industrial facilities with high EMI levels and demanding physical installation conditions.
