Product Overview
The CHEPJ95/SC is a heavy-duty, armored marine communication cable that delivers maximum fire safety and physical protection for critical circuits. It combines EPR insulation, galvanized steel wire armor, and a dual-layer Cross-linked Polyolefin (SHF2) sheath within a full Low Smoke Halogen Free (LSHF) Flame Retardant construction. Designed for exposed or high-risk installations, this cable ensures circuit integrity and safety in the most demanding marine, offshore, and industrial environments.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Unmatched Fire Safety & Durability: Features full Halogen-Free (IEC 60754) and Low Smoke (IEC 61034) certification, paired with a highly durable dual-layer SHF2 sheath. This provides exceptional resistance to fire, abrasion, chemicals, and weathering.
-
Superior Mechanical Protection: The galvanized steel wire braid armor (9) offers maximum defense against crushing, impact, and rodent damage, making the cable suitable for direct burial, tray installation, and exposed runs.
-
Comprehensive Safety Solution: Integrates the highest standards of mechanical protection (steel armor) with the best-in-class fire safety (LSHF/SHF2), providing a complete solution for safety-critical and physically vulnerable pathways.
-
Long-Term Reliability: EPR insulation ensures stable electrical performance at temperatures up to 90°C, supported by the superior environmental resistance of the SHF2 sheath system.
