Product Overview
The CHJPFP96/NC is a high-specification Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable engineered for mission-critical telecommunication and data systems where circuit integrity and personnel safety during a fire are paramount. It features a fire-survivable mica glass tape + XLPE insulation system, an overall electromagnetic screen, heavy-duty galvanized steel wire armor, and a dual-layer Low Smoke Halogen Free (SHF1) thermoplastic polyolefin sheath. This cable is designed to ensure continuous operation of emergency communications and control signals under fire conditions while providing enhanced safety and robust protection in demanding marine, offshore, and industrial environments, fully complying with IEC 60092 and IEC 60331 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Assured Fire Survival (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape + XLPE insulation (Code J) is engineered to maintain circuit operation during a fire, ensuring that emergency communications, alarms, and control signals remain functional.
-
Enhanced Personnel Safety (LSHF/NC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties drastically reduce the emission of toxic, corrosive gases and smoke density, critically improving safety for evacuation and firefighting in confined spaces.
-
Complete EMI/RFI Shielding: The integrated overall screen (Code P) provides reliable protection against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, safeguarding sensitive data and signal integrity.
-
Maximum Mechanical & Environmental Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) offers superior resistance against impact and crushing. The dual-layer SHF1 sheath (Inner PF & Outer 6) provides excellent overall protection against moisture, abrasion, and environmental factors.
