Product Overview
The CKJV90/SA is a rugged marine control cable designed for applications requiring superior mechanical protection in a streamlined construction. It features XLPE insulation, a protective galvanized steel wire braid armor, and a single PVC inner sheath with no outer oversheath. This design prioritizes maximum crush resistance and durability while allowing direct access to the armor for grounding. It is ideal for fixed installations in harsh marine, offshore, and industrial environments, complying with IEC 60092 flame retardant standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Superior Mechanical Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor provides excellent resistance to crushing, impact, abrasion, and rodent damage, ensuring long-term integrity in exposed or high-risk areas.
-
Grounding-Ready Design: The single-layer PVC sheath over the armor, with no outer oversheath, allows for direct and reliable grounding connections to structural hulls, panels, or trays, fulfilling essential electrical safety requirements.
-
Durable & Reliable: XLPE insulation ensures stable electrical performance at temperatures up to 90°C. The overall construction is designed for longevity in demanding conditions.

Applications
This cable is specified for control and power circuits in areas with extreme physical hazards where a grounded armor path is required.
-
Marine & Offshore: Power, lighting, and control systems in ship engine rooms, machinery spaces, and on offshore platforms, especially where cables are installed in grounded trays or must be bonded to the ship's hull for safety.
-
Heavy Industrial Plants: Control and power wiring in mining, steel mills, and power plants where cables are exposed to severe mechanical stress and require a dedicated grounding path via the armor.
