About:

The GAALSHIP TIG FR (BFCU(i) Stranded TC Shielded Armour Halogen-Free 250V Offshore Cable is a specialized cable designed to perform reliably in offshore and marine environments, prioritizing safety and durability.It is encased in a fire-resistant, halogen-free jacket to ensure minimal emission of toxic gases in case of a fire, combined with a shielded armour that protects against mechanical and electromagnetic interference.

Also Known As:

• Fire-Resistant Marine Control Cable
• Halogen-Free Armored Offshore Cable
• BFCU(i) Offshore Safety Cable
• Shielded Marine Instrumentation Cable

Application:

• Marine Control Systems: Used in ship and submarine systems where cable integrity is critical during fire conditions.
• Offshore Platforms: Suitable for power, control, and instrumentation circuits in environments like oil rigs where non-combustibility is vital.
• Environmental Hazard Areas: Ideal for installations where fire safety and emission control are required due to tight and enclosed spaces.

Standards:

• IEC 60092-360: Ensures the cable's construction materials are halogen-free, suitable for shipboard and offshore installations.
• IEC 60332-1-2, 60332-3-22: Fire performance standards testing for flame retardancy and resistance.
• IEC 60331: Assesses the performance of cables under fire conditions, ensuring they maintain circuit integrity.
