0.35mm 5P Stranded Tinned Copper Braid Screen Shielded LFH 600V Military Vessels Shipboard Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 0.35mm 5P Stranded Tinned Copper Braid Screen Shielded LFH 600V Military Vessels Shipboard Cable: 100 Amps

About:

• The Military Vessels Stranded Tinned Copper Braid Screen Shielded LFH 600V Shipboard Cable is a specialized type of electrical cable designed for use in military ships and submarines. It features a stranded tinned copper braid for flexibility and corrosion resistance, and is shielded to protect against electromagnetic interference. This cable is rated for 600 volts, making it suitable for high-power applications. It's constructed to meet strict military and marine safety standards, including being low fire hazard (LFH) for enhanced safety. Its primary uses are in power distribution, control systems, communication networks, and navigation systems aboard military vessels.

Also Known As:

• Shipboard Electrical Cable
• Marine Grade Shielded Cable
• Stranded Tinned Copper Braid Cable for Naval Vessels

Application:

• Thin-wall, lightweight copper wire braid screened multipair cables for control, communication and instrumentation circuits in HM surface ships and vessels. Incorporates LFH (Limited Fire Hazard) insulation and sheath for reduced levels of smoke and toxic fumes in the event of a fire. May be used in flexing or fixed applications and suitable for use where fuel, lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids and water are present.

Construction:

• In accordance with DEF61-12 part 25.
• Conductor: Stranded Class 2 tinned copper conductors to BS EN 60228.
• Insulation: Thin-wall LFH (Limited Fire Hazard) insulation to DEF61-12 part 25.
N.B. Cores comply with DEF61-12 part 18 for category 1 equipment wires.
• Pair Identification: Single pair - red, blue 3 pair and above - red/black and blue/black marker pairs adjacent in each layer with remaining pairs white/black N.B. Where one pair is used as a centre the colour shall be white/black. The cores in each pair shall be number printed, in a contrasting colour, with the pair number
• Binder Tape: p.e.t.p. tape minimum 20% overlap
• Braid: Tinned copper wire braid screen (minimum filling factor 0.61).
• Outer Sheath: : Black LFH (Limited Fire Hazard) outer sheath to DEF61-12 part 31. In addition, the outer sheath also displays the following characteristics:
Minimum oxygen index: 30%.
Maximum HCL emission @ 800°C: 0.5%.
• Flame retardant to DS 02-641.
• Voltage Rating: 600V rms/800V d.c. (between cores, or between cores and ships structure, or between cores and cable screen).
• Temperature Rating: 85°C maximum conductor operating temperature.
N.B. Cables will also retain a degree of flexibility under weatherdeck conditions of -30°C.

Standards:

• Military Specifications: Often tailored to meet stringent military standards for durability, performance, and safety.
• International Marine Certifications: Complies with international marine safety and quality standards.
• Fire-Resistance: Low Fire Hazard (LFH) standards for enhanced safety in fire-prone environments.

Features:

• Corrosion Resistance: The tinning on the copper strands offers extra protection against corrosion in salty marine environments.
• Flexibility: Designed to be flexible for ease of installation, especially in confined spaces of ships.
• EMI/RFI Protection: Excellent shielding against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.
• Safety Compliance: Meets fire safety standards, essential for shipboard applications where fire safety is paramount.
