Specification

About:

• The Marine Tinned Copper Shield Al Foil Individually Steel Braid LSZH 150/250V Armoured Cable is a highly durable and safe electrical cable designed for use in marine and harsh environments. It features a tinned copper conductor for superior corrosion resistance, aluminum foil and a steel braid for excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and physical damage, and is encased in a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath to minimize toxic and corrosive gas emission in case of fire. This cable is suitable for power, control, and instrumentation applications in places like ships, offshore platforms, and industrial settings where safety and reliability are paramount.
