Product Overview
The CKEFP92/NA is a heavy-duty Fire Resistant, Screened marine control cable engineered for the most critical safety and control circuits where operational integrity during a fire must be combined with superior mechanical protection and signal clarity. It features a mica glass tape and EPR insulation core for certified fire resistance, an EMI/RFI screen, and is protected by a durable Polychloroprene (PCP) inner sheath, galvanized steel wire armor, and a PVC outer sheath. This robust construction is designed for vital systems in extreme marine, offshore, and industrial applications where fire, physical stress, and environmental hazards are present.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Certified Fire Resistance (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape barrier ensures circuit integrity is maintained under fire conditions, allowing critical emergency and shutdown systems to remain operational.
-
Maximum Mechanical & Environmental Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor provides supreme resistance to crushing, impact, and rodent damage. The PCP inner sheath offers excellent oil, chemical, and weathering resistance.
-
EMI Shielding & Complete Sheath System: An integrated electrical screen protects sensitive signals from interference. The combination of a tough PCP layer and an outer PVC sheath provides comprehensive environmental and mechanical durability.
