Product Overview
The CHJPFP90/NC is a specialized Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable designed for mission-critical systems where fire survival and installation adaptability are paramount. Featuring a fire-resilient mica glass tape + XLPE insulation core, a Low Smoke Halogen Free (SHF1) inner sheath, an overall electromagnetic screen, and heavy-duty galvanized steel wire armor, this NC-grade cable is supplied without an outer sheath. This configuration offers a highly durable, safety-compliant core for integration into custom conduits, panels, or systems requiring specific final over-jacketing, ensuring compliance with IEC 60331 and IEC 60092 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Guaranteed Fire Survival (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape + XLPE insulation (Code J) maintains circuit integrity during a fire, ensuring emergency communications and control signals remain operational.
-
Enhanced Personnel Safety (LSHF/NC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) construction minimizes toxic fumes and smoke, critical for safety in confined spaces.
-
Maximum Mechanical Core Protection & Customization: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) provides superior crush resistance. Supplied without an outer sheath, it allows for custom final over-sheathing or conduit installation tailored to specific project requirements.
-
Superior EMI Shielding & Internal Protection: The overall screen (Code P) ensures signal integrity. The SHF1 inner sheath offers initial LSHF protection to the cable core.
