Multiconductor
Power/Distribution Cable
Type P, 600 Volts
Drilmar™ 125-XE Crosslinked Polyolefin Insulated
Drilling Rig and Marine Cable
APPLICATIONS
DRILMAR
125-XE cables are specifically designed for the installation and use in
marine environments, for use on offshore drilling rigs, aboard marine
vessels and on fixed and floating offshore facilities where harsh
marine environments exist. These cables are used for the distribution
of power, lighting, communication, and control, in circuits rated 600V.
Typical
applications include: A/C motor power; distribution panel
feeders; transformer feeders; lighting panels; light fixtures;
plugs/receptacles and remote motor controls.

SPECIFICATIONS / ENGINEERING INFORMATION
Unarmored
Design:
Conductor:
Annealed flexible tin-coated copper per IEEE-45-1998 & UL 1309-1995
& CSA C22.2 No. 245 and UL 1309/CSA 245 proposed standard
Separator tape: Polyester tape as
required
Insulation: Flame-retardent crosslinked
polyolefin (XLPO) per IEEE-45-1998, and UL-1309 Proposed Standard. Also
meets and exceeds the requirements of UL-1309-1995 for Type X110, and
IEC 92-353 for crosslinked polyolefin insulation. DRLMAR XLPO-125 is a
CME XLPO polyolefin rated 125°C.
Conductor Identification: Color-coded
insulation in accordance with 8.5 per IEEE-45-1998 and 3.6 per UL
1309-1995. See Table I
Assembly: Individual conductors cabled
with moisture and flame resistant fillers as required, with a suitable
cable tape applied over the assembly, to give the completed cable a
substantially circular cross-section.
Jacket:
Sunlight resistance and flame retardant Arctic Type chlorosulfonated
polyethylene (CP) per IEEE-45-1998 Arctic Type requirements, passing
the Cold Bend and Cold Impact Test requirements at -40°C.
