18 AWG 16T Stranded Tinned Copper Shield Foil Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BU(i) Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 18 AWG 16T Stranded Tinned Copper Shield Foil Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BU(i) Offshore Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable features an 18 AWG stranded tinned copper conductor, suitable for marine and offshore installations where environmental conditions are harsh and potentially corrosive. The halogen-free design ensures safety by minimizing the release of toxic gases in case of fire.

Also Known As:

• 18 AWG Marine and Offshore Halogen-Free Cable
• Stranded Tinned Copper Shielded Foil Offshore Cable
• GAALSHIP BU(i) Offshore Cable

Application:

• Designed for use in shipbuilding and on offshore platforms, where cables must withstand harsh environmental and mechanical conditions.
• Suitable for power transmission, control circuits, instrumentation, and communication links in marine settings.
• Often used where low-smoke and non-toxic materials are required to enhance safety in confined spaces.

Standards:

• Likely meets relevant International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards for marine and offshore cables, including those for fire resistance and low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) properties.
• Adheres to specific safety and construction standards necessary for approval in marine and offshore environments.
