NEK606 Water Blocked Offshore & Marine Cables

Water Blocked P34 BFOU-HCF 0.6/1 kV

Applications

• These cables are partially water blocked, fire resistant, flame retardant, low smoke and halogen free, used for emergency control, power and lighting systems that need to be operational during a 1100°C hydrocarbon fire.

Standards

• IEC 60092-353	IEC 60092-351
  IEC 60092-359	IEC 60332-1
  IEC 60332-3-22	IEC 60754-1,2
  IEC 61034-1,2	NEK 606:2004
  VG 95218 part 29?

Construction

• l???? Conductors: Tinned annealed stranded compacted copper to IEC 60228 class 2.
  l???? Insulation: Mica tape + Halogen free EPR/XLPE.
  l???? Filler: Water blocking fillers, if required.
  l???? Bedding: Halogen free compound, PETP wrapping tape will be applied over the bedding, if required.
  l???? Armour: Tinned copper wire braid, PETP wrapping tape will be applied over the braiding, if required.
  l???? Water Blocking Elements: Water blocking tape and strings for providing longitudinal water tightness.
  l???? Inner Sheath: Halogen free thermosetting compound, SHF2.
  l???? HC-fire protection: Extruded thermoplastic fire protection compound.
  l???? Taping: Lapped glass fibre tape.
  l???? Outer Sheath 1: Flame retardant halogen-free thermoplastic compound, SHF1, coloured black.

  l?????Outer Sheath 2: Polyurethane for providing transversal water tightness, PE is optional,but can not meet low smoke standard.
