Product Overview
The CHJVP90/NA is a specialized Fire Resistant marine communication cable designed for ultimate integration flexibility in critical systems. It features a fire-survivable mica glass tape + XLPE insulation core, a PVC inner sheath, an overall electromagnetic screen, and robust galvanized steel wire armor. Supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0), this NA-grade cable provides a customizable, protected core for installation into custom conduits, trunking, or systems requiring a specific final over-jacket, ensuring compliance with IEC 60331 for fire resistance in marine, offshore, and industrial applications.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Assured Fire Survival (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape + XLPE insulation (Code J) is designed to maintain circuit integrity under fire, ensuring critical emergency and control signals remain operational.
-
Complete EMI/RFI Shielding & Core Protection: The overall screen (Code P) protects against electromagnetic interference, while the PVC inner sheath (Code V) provides initial environmental protection to the core before the armored layer.
-
Maximum Mechanical Core Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) offers superior resistance against impact and crushing forces.
-
Customizable Final Installation: The absence of an outer sheath (Code 0) makes this cable ideal for system integrators and installers who need to apply a site-specific final over-sheath, conduit, or additional fireproofing tailored to the exact installation requirements.
