MGCH 0.6/1 kV Halogen Free Power Cables with screen (armour) 0.6/1 kV
Standards
International  IEC 60092-353; IEC 60332-3; IEC 60754-1; IEC 60754-2; IEC 61034
National  DIN 89158/98
Description

Applications

For fixed installations on ships and offshore-units in all locations and open deck.

The good screening qualities of the copper braid also reduce radio interferences and electrical influences to electronic installation.

The cables meet the flame test requirement for bunched cables acc. to IEC 60332-3-22 and IEEE45-18.13, and perform to the SOLAS requirements.

All cable 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

  1. Conductor: Stranded bare copper class 2
  2. Insulation: HEPR (crosslinked hardgrade ethylene propylene rubber)
  3. Common covering: filler (extruded) or tape
  4. Armouring: separator tape, bare copper braid, separator tape(optional)
  5. Outer sheath: Polyolefin,
    colour:black

 

Marking

e.g.: l NEXANS l MGCH 1000 V 85 GRAD C DIN 89158, IEC 60092-353, IEC 60332-3 HALOGENFREE 9 x 1,5 + 1,5 E/10,0 mm2 + Metric Marking

 

Core Identification

1 core: natural colour ( beige )

2 cores: black / blue

3 cores: black / blue / brown

4 cores: black / blue / brown / black

5 cores: black / blue / brown / black / black

7 to 24 core cable: all cores natural coloured, printed with numbers, starting in centre with number 1.
