CHJPF86/SC Marine Communication Cable – XLPE Insulated, Copper Braid Armoured, Low Smoke Halogen Free, IEC 60092

Product Overview

The CHJPF86/SC is a high-performance, double-sheathed marine communication cable designed for fixed installations that demand both exceptional fire safety and reliable electromagnetic compatibility. It features Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation and a full Halogen-Free, Low Smoke Flame Retardant (LSHF) construction. Protected by a tinned copper wire braid armor and an additional outer sheath, it offers balanced mechanical protection, effective EMI shielding, and enhanced durability for critical systems on vessels, offshore platforms, and in industrial settings, fully complying with the IEC 60092 standard series.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Effective Shielding & Protection: The tinned copper wire braid armor (Code 8) provides robust mechanical protection while offering superior shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI), crucial for sensitive communication and instrumentation signals.

  • Comprehensive Fire Safety: Constructed to meet Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) requirements, reducing hazardous emissions and smoke. Certified for high Flame Retardancy (IEC 60332-1 & -3-22).

  • Enhanced Durability: The dual-layer Thermoplastic Polyolefin (SHF1) sheath provides excellent environmental sealing, moisture resistance, and additional mechanical protection over the armor, extending cable life in demanding conditions.

  • Reliable Performance: XLPE insulation ensures stable electrical properties, high thermal endurance (90°C), and excellent resistance to aging, guaranteeing long-term signal integrity.
