BFOU 0.6/1kV Fire Resistant Power Cable | TEBAOFLEX
TEBAOFLEX BFOU 0.6/1kV Power Cable is a fire-resistant, halogen-free and mud-resistant offshore power cable for fixed installation in marine, oil and gas, shipboard and emergency distribution systems.
BFOU 0.6/1kV Fire Resistant Power Cable for Marine and Offshore Systems
BFOU 0.6/1kV power cable is designed for fixed power distribution where circuit integrity, low-smoke halogen-free performance and mud-resistant sheathing are required. TEBAOFLEX supplies this cable for offshore platforms, marine vessels, drilling-related electrical systems, emergency lighting, critical power circuits and electromechanical equipment installed in dry, wet, oily or muddy environments.
The cable structure uses a Class 2 stranded tinned copper conductor, mica glass fire barrier, halogen-free EPR insulation, halogen-free bedding, tinned copper wire braid screen and black SHF2 MUD elastomer sheath. Class 5 flexible conductor construction can be discussed for projects requiring improved installation flexibility.
Key Features
- Fire-resistant construction with mica glass tape for critical marine power circuits.
- Halogen-free EPR insulation and SHF2 MUD sheath for offshore and shipboard environments.
- Tinned copper wire braid screen for electrical protection in power distribution routes.
- Suitable for fixed installation in emergency systems, lighting systems and electromechanical equipment.
- TEBAOFLEX supports customized core count, conductor size and project documentation for marine and offshore cable procurement.
