DIN 89160 MGH marine&offshore cable

DIN 89160 MGH marine&offshore cable application

Halogen free cable is used for fixed laying on ships and off-shore units, use in all rooms and on open board, as power,signalling and control cables.

A more specic design (e. g. screening) is necessary for installations in radio stations or above the upper metallic deck.

The cables meet the ame test requirements for bunched cables acc. to IEC 60332-3 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 re.

Therefore, these cables are especially suitable for the installation on passenger ships.
