Shipwiring/Offshore Screened Instrumentation
Cables to BS7917
(Ref. 657M SW4 Instrumentation)
Manufactured in both pairs and triples these 150/250V
instrumentation cables provide collective or individual screening through
the use of metallic foils and drain wires. Good flexibility combined with
the use of Mica glass tapes allow fire resistant circuits to be routed
through confined spaces.
The latest SW4 Low Smoke Halogen Free sheathing
compounds ensure that in the event of a fire the cables offer excellent
protection to both people and property by not emitting toxic or corrosive
gases whilst keeping emergency circuits operating.
