Product Overview
The CHJ86/SC is a flexible and durable Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) Flame Retardant marine communication cable designed for reliable telecommunication, instrumentation, and data transmission where ease of installation and enhanced safety are priorities. It features XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) insulation, a flexible tinned copper wire braid armor, and a LSHF thermoplastic polyolefin (SHF1) outer sheath. This construction provides superior fire safety, good mechanical protection with high flexibility, and reliable performance for communication systems on ships, offshore platforms, and in industrial environments, fully complying with IEC 60092 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Enhanced Fire Safety (LSHF/SC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties minimize toxic and corrosive fume emission, improving safety during evacuation. Certified Flame Retardant (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22) to inhibit fire spread.
-
Flexible & Easy to Install: The tinned copper wire braid armor (Code 8) provides effective mechanical protection while ensuring high flexibility, making the cable easier to route and install in confined spaces compared to rigid steel-armored cables.
-
Inherent EMI Shielding: The copper braid armor also offers a degree of shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI), beneficial for signal integrity.
-
Reliable & Durable: XLPE insulation ensures excellent electrical properties, thermal stability (90°C), and moisture resistance for long-term reliability.
