MGH Marine Power Cable | Halogen-Free Flame Retardant Cable for Ships & Offshore Units
Overview
The MGH Marine Power Cable is a high-performance, halogen-free electrical cable specifically designed for fixed installations aboard ships and offshore units. Complying with DIN 89160 and major international marine standards, this cable is ideal for power, signaling, and control applications in all shipboard areas, including open decks and enclosed spaces. Its halogen-free construction ensures the emission of non-corrosive and low-toxicity gases in case of fire, enhancing safety for crew and passengers. Particularly suited for passenger ships, this cable also meets stringent flame retardancy requirements for bunched cables according to IEC 60332-3-22 and IEEE 45-18.13, while fulfilling SOLAS safety regulations.
Key Applications
-
Fixed power, signaling, and control installations on ships and offshore platforms
