Product Overview
The CHJPFP86/NC is a flexible Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable engineered for critical systems requiring fire survival, superior EMI protection, and enhanced installation flexibility. It combines a fire-resilient mica glass tape + XLPE insulation system, a Low Smoke Halogen Free (SHF1) inner sheath, an overall electromagnetic screen, a flexible tinned copper wire braid armor, and a final LSHF SHF1 outer sheath. Designed to meet IEC 60331 for fire resistance, this cable ensures continuous operation of vital signals during emergencies while providing excellent safety and durability in marine, offshore, and industrial applications.
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 remain functional.
-
Enhanced Personnel Safety (LSHF/NC Grade): Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties minimize toxic fumes and smoke, critical for confined spaces.
-
Flexible Armor with Dual EMI Shielding: The tinned copper wire braid armor (Code 8) offers robust protection and high flexibility. Combined with the overall screen (Code P), it provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference.
-
Durable Double-Layer Protection: The dual-layer SHF1 sheath (Inner PF & Outer 6) ensures excellent environmental and mechanical protection while maintaining LSHF safety properties.
