Product Overview
The CKEPJP95/NC is an elite Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine control cable engineered for the most critical power, lighting, and control systems where circuit integrity during a fire and ultimate personnel safety are mandatory. Combining EPR insulation with a mica glass tape barrier for fire resistance, Halogen-Free Low Smoke safety properties, an EMI/RFI screen, and galvanized steel wire armor within a double-layer SHF2 sheath, it represents the pinnacle of safety and durability for vital circuits in extreme marine, offshore, and industrial applications.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Ultimate Dual Safety Certification: Fire Resistant per IEC 60331 to ensure operational continuity during a fire, and Halogen-Free Low Smoke (IEC 60754 & 61034) to minimize toxic fumes and smoke, protecting both critical systems and personnel.
-
Maximum Protection Package: The galvanized steel wire armor provides supreme mechanical protection against crushing and impact. The integrated electrical screen safeguards signal integrity from interference, while the double-layer SHF2 sheath offers unmatched environmental and chemical resistance.
-
High-Performance Construction: Every component is selected for extreme duty, from the flexible, heat-resistant EPR insulation (90°C) to the superior Cross-linked Polyolefin (SHF2) sheaths, ensuring long-term reliability in the harshest conditions.
