Product Overview
The CKEF/SA is a robust and flexible marine control cable designed for reliable power, lighting, and control circuits in demanding environments. Featuring durable EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) insulation and a rugged PCP (Polychloroprene) outer sheath, this cable offers excellent resistance to oils, weathering, and abrasion. With its SA-grade Flame Retardant certification for bunched installations, it provides a dependable and safe wiring solution for marine vessels, offshore platforms, and heavy industrial applications, complying with key IEC 60092 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Oil & Weather Resistant: The PCP (Code F) outer sheath provides superior protection against oils, chemicals, abrasion, and harsh environmental conditions, ensuring long-term durability.
-
Flame Retardant Safety: Certified for SA-grade Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & IEC 60332-3-22) for performance in bunched cable installations, helping to inhibit the spread of fire.
-
