Product Overview
The CHJPJ/NC is a specialized Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) Fire Resistant marine communication cable. Engineered for critical applications where circuit integrity and clean combustion are paramount, it combines XLPE insulation with mica glass tape and a cross-linked polyolefin (SHF2) sheath. Designed without metallic armor, this lightweight and flexible cable is ideal for protected cable routes where fire resistance (IEC 60331), EMI shielding, and minimal hazardous emissions are required for telecommunications and data systems in marine and industrial environments.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Certified Fire Safety: Complies with IEC 60331 Fire Resistance standard, ensuring continued operation during fire emergencies, and IEC 60332 Flame Retardant requirements.
-
Enhanced Environmental Safety: Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) construction minimizes toxic/corrosive fumes and improves visibility, meeting the stringent NC (Halogen Free Low Smoke Fire Resistant) flammability code.
-
Lightweight & Flexible Design: The unarmored construction with a cross-linked polyolefin sheath provides excellent flexibility, ease of installation, and reduced weight, suitable for trays, conduits, or protected spaces.
-
Reliable Performance: The Mica/XLPE insulation system ensures superior thermal and electrical stability. The cable includes a screen (inherent in the 'PJ' shielded design) for protection against electromagnetic interference.
