Product Overview
The CHJPFP96/SC is a heavy-duty, armored and screened marine communication cable designed for the most demanding data transmission applications. Combining XLPE insulation, galvanized steel wire armor, and an overall Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) flame retardant sheath, it offers maximum mechanical protection, EMI shielding, and fire safety. This cable is engineered for reliability in extreme environments on ships, offshore platforms, and in heavy industry, fully complying with the IEC 60092 series of marine standards.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Maximum Mechanical Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor provides superior resistance against crushing, impact, and rodent damage, ideal for exposed or high-risk installation routes.
-
Enhanced Fire & Safety: Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) properties ensure minimal toxic emission and improved visibility. Certified for high Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22).
-
Dual Protection & Integrity: Features both a screen (tinned copper braid or foil tape) for EMI protection and an armor layer for physical defense, guaranteeing signal clarity and system reliability.
-
Robust Construction: XLPE insulation provides excellent thermal stability (90°C), high dielectric strength, and resistance to moisture and chemicals.
-
Comprehensive Durability: The double-sheath design (PF + 6) with an armored core offers long-term performance in harsh marine and industrial conditions.
