CKEPJ90/SC Marine Control Cable – EPR Insulated, Steel Wire Armored, LSHF (SHF2), No Outer Sheath

Product Overview

The CKEPJ90/SC is a high-specification Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine control cable designed for critical power, lighting, and control systems where ultimate fire safety and installation adaptability are required. It features EPR insulation, a cross-linked polyolefin (SHF2) inner sheath, and heavy-duty galvanized steel wire armor. Supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0), this SC-grade flame-retardant cable provides a robust and safety-compliant core, offering flexibility for final integration into systems requiring custom external jacketing, conduits, or fireproofing. It fully complies with stringent IEC 60092 standards for marine and industrial applications.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Enhanced Fire Safety (LSHF/SC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties minimize toxic and corrosive fumes, improving safety in confined spaces. Certified for high Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22) to inhibit fire spread.

  • Superior Mechanical Core Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) offers maximum resistance against crushing, impact, and mechanical damage, ideal for demanding environments.

  • Thermally Resilient & Chemical Resistant: The cross-linked polyolefin (SHF2) inner sheath (Code PJ) provides excellent thermal stability, and resistance to oils, chemicals, and environmental stress, protecting the cable core.

  • Customizable Installation: The absence of an outer sheath (Code 0) makes this cable ideal for system integrators, panel builders, and installers who need to apply a site-specific final over-sheath, conduit system, or additional fire protection layer tailored to the exact application.
