Product Overview
The CKEF92/SA is a heavy-duty, flame-retardant marine control cable engineered for maximum durability and protection in critical power, lighting, and control system applications. It features a robust triple-layer construction: EPR insulation, an oil-resistant PCP inner sheath, high-strength galvanized steel wire armor, and a protective PVC outer sheath. Designed for SA-grade flame retardancy in bunched installations, this cable is built to withstand severe mechanical stress and harsh environmental conditions on ships, offshore platforms, and in demanding industrial plants, in full compliance with IEC 60092 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Maximum Mechanical & Crush Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) offers superior defense against impact, crushing forces, and rodent damage, making it ideal for exposed or high-risk areas.
-
Enhanced Environmental & Chemical Resistance: The inner PCP sheath (Code F) provides excellent resistance to oils, chemicals, and moisture, while the outer PVC sheath (Code 2) adds a layer of protection against abrasion, sunlight, and general weathering.
-
Flame Retardant Safety: Certified for SA-grade Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22) for performance in bunched cable installations, helping to inhibit the spread of fire.
-
Reliable & Long-Lasting: EPR insulation ensures stable electrical properties and thermal endurance at a continuous operating temperature of 90°C, guaranteeing reliable performance over the long term.
