Product Overview
The CHJV80/SA is a high-performance Flame Retardant Marine Communication Cable designed for reliable signal transmission in demanding environments. It features durable Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation and a protective tinned copper wire braid armor, offering an excellent balance of electrical integrity, mechanical strength, and fire safety for fixed installations onboard ships and offshore platforms.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Reliable XLPE Insulation: Provides superior electrical properties, excellent thermal resistance (rated for 90°C), and enhanced aging performance compared to standard polyethylene, ensuring long-term signal stability.
-
Effective EMI Protection & Flexibility: The tinned copper wire braided armor offers good electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and mechanical protection while maintaining cable flexibility for easier routing in confined spaces.
-
Verified Flame Retardancy: Complies with IEC 60332-1 (single wire) and IEC 60332-3-22 (bunched cables) flame tests, helping to limit flame propagation along cables in the event of a fire.
-
Streamlined Construction: Designed without an outer sheath (Code: 0), making it suitable for installation within protected panels, conduits, or enclosed trays where additional external protection is not required.
