Product Overview
The CHJPFP80/NC is a specialized Fire Resistant, Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable engineered for mission-critical telecommunication and data systems requiring ultimate installation flexibility and guaranteed circuit integrity during fire emergencies. It features a fire-resilient mica glass tape + XLPE insulation core, a Low Smoke Halogen Free (SHF1) inner sheath, an overall electromagnetic screen, and a highly flexible tinned copper wire braid armor. Supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0), this NC-grade cable provides a customizable, protected core for integration into custom conduits, panels, or systems requiring specific final over-jacketing or fireproofing, ensuring full compliance with IEC 60331 and IEC 60092 standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Guaranteed Fire Survival (IEC 60331): The mica glass tape + XLPE insulation (Code J) is engineered to maintain circuit operation during a fire, ensuring vital 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 toxic fume emission and smoke density, critically improving safety for evacuation and firefighting in confined marine and offshore spaces.
-
Flexible Armor with Superior EMI Shielding: The tinned copper wire braid armor (Code 8) provides robust mechanical protection while ensuring high flexibility for complex routing. Combined with the overall screen (Code P), it offers excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) for signal clarity.
-
Maximum Customization & Integration Flexibility: The absence of an outer sheath allows system integrators and installers to apply a site-specific final over-sheath, conduit system, or additional fireproofing layer, perfectly tailoring the installation to unique environmental, mechanical, and safety requirements.
-
Protected Internal Core: The LSHF SHF1 inner sheath (Code PF) provides initial environmental and safety protection to the cable core before the application of the armor and final user-defined jacket.
