Bostrig™ Type P Power Cable 600V or 0.6/1kV & 2000V
Bostrig™ Type P Marine and Offshore Cable is primarily designed for power, control, signal, and instrumentation applications for offshore and land drilling rigs, marine vessels, and offshore production facilities.
Bostrig™ cables have excellent resistance to oil, abrasion, moisture, vibration, sunlight, and ester based mud (Type P-MR). They are suitable for use in Class 1, Division 1 offshore applications (armored & sheathed).
The standard insulation has a continuous operating temperature of 125°C, allowing for higher ampacity levels. These cables also meet cold bend requirements of -40°C and cold impact of -35°C (CSA 22.2 N0. 0.3).
This product may be manufactured in an unarmored or armored and sheathed version
