19 AWG 24P Stranded Tinned Copper Shield Foil Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU(c) Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 19 AWG 24P Stranded Tinned Copper Shield Foil Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU(c) Offshore Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable is tailored for use in offshore oil and gas installations, ships, and any environment where fire resistance, low smoke, and zero halogen emissions are critically required. The BFOU(c) designation stands for Braid Fire-resistant Optical Universal Cable, emphasizing its suitability for tough conditions.

Also Known As:

• “19 AWG BFOU(c) Offshore Cable”
• “Halogen-Free Stranded Tinned Copper Offshore Cable”
• “Fire-resistant Offshore Marine Cable”

Application:

• Offshore platforms: In control, power, and instrumentation applications where cables must perform reliably despite exposure to extreme conditions.
• Marine vessels: For critical systems aboard ships, including navigation, communication, and safety systems.
