CKEFP80/SA Marine Control Cable – EPR Insulated, Screened, Flexible Copper Braid Armor, No Outer Sheath

Product Overview

The CKEFP80/SA is a specialized flexible, screened marine control cable designed for power, lighting, and control applications where electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection, flexibility, and final installation adaptability are critical. Featuring EPR insulation, an oil-resistant PCP inner sheath, an overall EMI screen, and a flexible tinned copper braid armor, this cable is supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0). This SA flame-retardant configuration is ideal for integration into panels, conduits, or systems where a specific final over-jacket is required, ensuring compliance with IEC 60092 standards for robust marine and industrial use.

Key Features & Benefits

  • High Flexibility & Superior EMI Shielding: The tinned copper wire braid armor (Code 8) provides excellent mechanical protection while ensuring outstanding cable flexibility for routing in tight spaces. Combined with the overall screen (Code P), it delivers reliable protection against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference for critical control signals.

  • Oil & Environmental Resistance: The PCP inner sheath (Code F) offers robust protection against oils, chemicals, and moisture, safeguarding the cable core prior to final installation or the addition of an external jacket.

  • Customizable Installation: Supplied without an outer sheath, this cable offers maximum flexibility for system integrators, panel builders, and installers to apply a custom protective jacket, conduit, or fireproofing layer tailored to the specific final environment or safety requirements.

  • Certified Flame Retardant: Meets SA-grade Flame Retardancy standards (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22) for performance in bunched cable installations, inhibiting the spread of fire.
