CHJ82/SA Marine Communication Cable – XLPE Insulated, Flexible Copper Armor, PVC Sheathed (SA Flame Retardant)

Product Overview

The CHJ82/SA is a flexible, flame-retardant marine communication cable designed for reliable telecommunication, instrumentation, and data transmission where ease of installation is a priority. It features durable XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) insulation, a flexible tinned copper wire braid armor, and a protective PVC outer sheath. Certified for SA-grade flame retardancy in bunched installations, this cable offers a practical balance of mechanical protection, flexibility, and fire safety for communication systems on ships, offshore platforms, and in industrial environments, in compliance with IEC 60092 standards.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Certified Flame Retardant Safety: Rated for SA-grade Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22) for performance in bunched cable installations, helping to inhibit the spread of fire.

  • 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 or complex pathways.

  • Durable & Cost-Effective Sheathing: A tough PVC outer sheath (Code 2) offers reliable resistance to abrasion, moisture, and general environmental wear.

  • Reliable Electrical Performance: XLPE insulation ensures stable electrical properties and thermal endurance at a continuous 90°C operating temperature.
