16 AWG 3C Aluminum Armored and Sheathed Type P Drilling Rig & Marine Control Cable 600V/1kV

16 AWG 3C Aluminum Armored and Sheathed Type P Drilling Rig & Marine Control Cable 600V/1kV

Application:

• DRILMAR 125-XE cables are specifically designed for the installation and use in marine environments, for use on offshore drilling rigs, aboard marine vessels, and on fixed and floating offshore facilities where harsh marine environments exist. These cables are used in control, indicating, communication, electronic and similar circuits where multiple conductor cables are required.
• Typical applications include: Driller’s console, fire and gas detection systems, bilge and ballast controls and general alarm systems.

Also Known As:

16 AWG 3C Type P Rig Cable, Type P Cable, 16 AWG 3C Type P Drilling Rig and Marine Cable, Rig Cable, 16 AWG 3C Type P Power Cable, Shipboard Cable, Armored and Sheathed Cable.
