Product Overview
The CHEVP/SA is a screened (shielded) marine communication cable designed for reliable data and signal transmission in environments prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Featuring EPR insulation, a PVC outer sheath, and an optional tinned copper braid or Alu/Polyester tape screen, it provides excellent electrical performance and protection. As a Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) and Flame Retardant cable, it meets the safety and performance requirements of critical marine and industrial communication systems.
Key Features & Benefits
-
EMI/RFI Shielding: Equipped with a tinned copper wire braid or Alu/Polyester tape screen to effectively shield against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, ensuring signal integrity for sensitive instrumentation and data systems.
-
Enhanced Safety: Combines Flame Retardant properties (IEC 60332) with Low Smoke and Halogen-Free (LSHF) characteristics (IEC 60754, 61034), reducing fire propagation risks and toxic fume emission.
-
Robust & Flexible Design: EPR insulation offers superior thermal resistance (90°C), flexibility, and durability. The PVC outer sheath provides mechanical protection, abrasion resistance, and is available in black or other colors for easy circuit identification.
-
Marine & Industrial Grade: Constructed to withstand the challenging conditions of marine vessels, offshore platforms, and heavy industrial facilities.
