Product Overview
The CHEPJP/SC is a screened, low smoke halogen free (LSHF) marine communication cable designed for applications where maximum fire safety and clear signal transmission are critical. It combines EPR insulation with a cross-linked polyolefin (SHF2) sheath, a dedicated metallic screen, and full LSHF compliance. This cable provides superior fire performance—minimizing smoke and toxic fumes—along with effective EMI protection, making it ideal for confined and safety-sensitive spaces on vessels, offshore platforms, and in industrial plants.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Enhanced Fire & Safety Performance: Fully Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) construction reduces corrosive gases and improves visibility in fire situations. Meets stringent IEC 60332 flame retardancy standards.
-
Effective EMI/RFI Shielding: The tinned copper braid or Alu/Polyester tape screen protects sensitive data and instrumentation signals from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, ensuring signal integrity.
-
Durable & Resilient Sheath: The Cross-linked Polyolefin (SHF2) sheath offers excellent mechanical toughness, chemical resistance, and environmental durability, while maintaining the LSHF properties.
-
Optimized for Sensitive Areas: The combination of LSHF properties and effective shielding makes this cable perfect for engine rooms, control rooms, accommodation areas, and public spaces where safety and reliable communications are paramount.
