Product Overview
The CHJPJ90/NC is a high-performance Fire Resistant and Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) marine communication cable, designed with galvanized steel wire armor and supplied without an outer sheath (Code 0). This configuration combines maximum fire safety (IEC 60331), excellent mechanical protection, and installation flexibility. Featuring XLPE and mica glass tape insulation with a halogen-free polyolefin inner sheath, it is engineered for critical telecommunications and data circuits in marine and industrial environments where external jacketing is provided separately or within protective systems.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Certified Fire Resistance: Complies with IEC 60331, ensuring vital communication links remain operational during fire emergencies. Also meets Flame Retardant (IEC 60332) standards.
-
Superior Safety & Environmental Profile: Constructed to Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) requirements (NC flammability code), minimizing toxic fumes and smoke for enhanced safety.
-
Robust Mechanical Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (Code 9) provides exceptional resistance against crushing, impact, and mechanical damage in demanding installations.
-
Installation & System Integration Flexibility: Supplied without an outer sheath, this cable is ideal for pulling into sealed conduit, trunking, or for applications where a specific, site-applied external jacket or fire-proofing system is required.
