CHJPJP90/NC Marine Communication Cable – XLPE/Mica Fire Resistant, Screened, Steel Armored, SHF2 Inner Sheath

CHJPJP90/NC Marine Communication Cable - XLPE/Mica Fire Resistant, Screened, Steel Armored, SHF2 Inner Sheath, No Outer Sheath

Product Overview

The CHJPJP90/NC is a high-specification Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable engineered for mission-critical installations requiring ultimate fire safety, signal integrity, and mechanical protection with final integration flexibility. It features a fire-survivable mica glass tape + XLPE insulation core, a high-performance cross-linked polyolefin (SHF2) inner sheath, an overall electromagnetic screen, and heavy-duty galvanized steel wire armor. Supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0), this NC-grade cable provides a premium, customizable core for system integrators, offering unparalleled adaptability for final jacketing or installation into specialized containment systems while ensuring compliance with IEC 60331 and IEC 60092 standards.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Assured Fire Survival & Circuit Integrity (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape + XLPE insulation (Code J) is designed to maintain circuit operation during a fire, ensuring vital emergency and control communications remain functional.

  • Enhanced Personnel Safety (LSHF/NC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties drastically reduce toxic fume emission and smoke density, critical for safety in confined marine and offshore spaces.

  • Maximum Mechanical Core Protection & Customization: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) provides superior crush and impact resistance. The absence of an outer sheath allows for the application of a custom final over-sheath, conduit, or fireproofing layer tailored to specific project requirements.

  • Superior EMI Shielding & Internal Durability: The overall screen (Code P) protects signal integrity from interference. The SHF2 inner sheath (Code PJ) provides excellent thermal and chemical resistance to the cable core before final assembly.
