Specification

About:

• The Marine Tinned Copper Shield Al Foil Steel Braid LSZH 150/250V Armoured Cable is a high-quality, durable cable designed for use in marine and harsh environments. It features a tinned copper conductor for corrosion resistance, aluminum foil and steel braid for electromagnetic interference protection, and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath to reduce toxic and corrosive gas emissions in case of fire. This cable is ideal for electrical and instrumentation applications where safety, reliability, and performance are critical.

Also Known As:

• Marine Shielded Armoured LSZH Cable
• Tinned Copper Marine Cable with Steel Braid
• LSZH Armoured Electrical Cable for Marine Use

Application:

• Control and instrumentation cable for use in fixed installations in ships and offshore units where fire resistance and circuit integrity is essential. For use in regularly occupied areas such as accommodation facilities, control rooms and computer suites. Any application where life may be endangered by smoke and noxious fumes and where vital, sensitive equipment may be damaged by acid forming gases.

Construction:

• In accordance with BS7917. Fire resistant properties relevant to IEC60331
• Conductor: Tinned annealed copper. Stranded to BS EN 60228 Class 2 or flexible to BS EN 60228 Class 5
• Insulation: Mica Glass Tape, EPR complying with BS7655 GP4
• Core Identification: Black and white pairs. Triples black, white and red
• Screening: Aluminium mylar tape in contact with tinned copper drain wire
• Inner Sheath: Zero halogen rubber complying generally with BS7655
• Armour: Galvanised steel wire braid to BS EN 10257-1
• Outer Sheath: : Low smoke zero halogen Type SW4 to BS7655 section 2.6. Enhanced oil resistance, low smoke zero halogen, minimum tear resistance
• Temperature Rating: 90°C maximum conductor operating temperature
• Voltage Rating: 150/250 V

Standards:

• The cable is manufactured to meet or exceed relevant standards for performance, safety, and environmental impact, including:

• IEC 60092-350: For the construction and testing of electric cables under marine conditions.
• IEC 60332-3-22: For fire resistance, ensuring reduced flame spread on bunched cables.
• IEC 60754: Ensuring low halogen gas emissions.
• IEC 61034: Measuring smoke density to ensure visibility in case of fire.

Features:

• Safety: LSZH sheathing minimizes toxic smoke and halogen emissions during combustion, making it safer for marine and enclosed spaces.
• Durability: Tinned copper and steel braiding offer excellent corrosion resistance and physical protection against mechanical stresses.
• EMI Protection: The combination of aluminum foil and steel braid efficiently shields against electromagnetic interference, ensuring signal integrity.
• Versatility: Suitable for a range of applications, from power distribution to sensitive control systems in challenging environments.
• Compliance: Meets international standards for safety, performance, and environmental impact, ensuring reliability and quality in demanding situations.
