Product Overview
The CKEV92/NA is a premium Fire Resistant and Armored marine control cable, engineered to provide maximum circuit integrity and mechanical protection for the most critical applications. It integrates a mica glass tape and EPR composite insulation system for certified fire resistance (IEC 60331) with a robust Galvanized Steel Wire Braid Armor and dual PVC sheaths. Designed for essential power, lighting, and control circuits on ships, offshore platforms, and in hazardous industrial plants, this cable combines ultimate fire safety with superior durability in demanding environments.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Certified Fire Resistance: Complies with IEC 60331, ensuring continued circuit operation during a fire for critical emergency and safety systems.
-
Maximum Mechanical Protection: The Galvanized Steel Wire Braid Armor offers exceptional resistance to crushing, impact, abrasion, and rodent damage, ideal for exposed or high-risk cable routes.
