18 AWG 8P Stranded TC Shield Individual Foil Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU(i) Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 18 AWG 8P Stranded TC Shield Individual Foil Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU(i) Offshore Cable:100 Amps

About:

The 18 AWG 8P Stranded TC Shield Individual Foil Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU(i) Offshore Cable is a high-performance, corrosion-resistant cable designed for marine and offshore environments. It features a stranded tinned copper conductor for flexibility and durability, individual foil shielding for superior electromagnetic interference protection, and a halogen-free jacket to reduce toxic and corrosive gas emissions in the event of a fire. This cable is ideal for critical safety, control, and communication applications in harsh conditions.

Also Known As:

• Halogen-Free Stranded Marine Cable
• 18 AWG Shielded Offshore Control Cable
• Single-Pair TC Foil-Shielded Offshore Cable

Application:

• Offshore Oil Rigs and Platforms: Used in instrumentation and control systems where robust and reliable cabling is necessary to handle harsh conditions.
• Marine Vessels: Ideal for wiring in ships’ communication, navigation, and safety systems where moisture and salt resistance are required.
• Industrial Environments: Suitable for applications in chemical plants or any industrial settings where exposure to harsh elements is a concern.
• Renewable Energy Installations: Often used in offshore wind farms where durable and corrosion-resistant cabling is crucial.
