Applications
For fixed installation on ships and offshore-units in all locations below the upper metallic deck in safety circuits, where fire resistance is required.
A more specific design (e.g. screening) is necessary for installations in radio stations or above the upper metallic deck.
The cables meet the fire characteristics acc. To IEC 60331 as well as the flame test requirements for bunched cables acc. to IEC 60332-3-22 and IEEE 45-18.13, and perform to the SOLAS requirements. All cables materials are free of halogens. This design ensures that non corrosive and low toxic gases are emitted in case of fire. Therefore, these cables are especially suitable for the installation on passenger ships.
Design
- Conductor: stranded bare copper class 2
- Insulation: mica tape + XLPE (cross linked polyethylene)
- Outer sheath (separator/filler if necessary): polyolefin, colour: orange
Marking
e. g.: l NEXANS l MPRX 331 3x1,5 0,6/1 kV 90°C IEC 60092-353 IEC 60332-3-22 IEC 60331 YEAR *CE* + Metric Marking
Core Identification
In line with DIN VDE 0293-308
1 core: black
2 cores: blue/brown
3 cores: brown/black/grey
4 cores: blue/brown/black/grey
5 to 24 cores cables: all cores white coloured, printed with black numbers, starting in center with 1.
Cables with 3 cores and more also with green-yellow core (has to be stated in order).
