Cables in e-chains from the only supplier worldwide with DNV-GL approval

Guaranteed resistance to oil, sun and the sea

The oceans have long been part of the global economy, through wind farms as well as through the worldwide movement of goods. Thereby companies working for and in the maritime environment have to face special challenges: in addition to the Machinery Directive or the Product Safety Act, which also apply ashore, they are often bound by the contents of the Maritime Tasks Act or the Ship Safety Act.
 
In order to enable plant constructors and suppliers to smoothly implement the diverse legal requirements, contribute to efficient project planning, and ultimately to ensure trouble-free operation, igus has 379 chainflex® cables certified by DNV-GL for use in maritime environments that are available from stock. These are designed for highly dynamic use in energy chains for safe operation at sea. Besides having seawater resistance, the chainflex cables also operate reliably under the influence of oil. The cables are resistant according to MUD NEK606, which enables maintenance-free pumping on drilling rigs and also stands for operator safety.
 
In addition to the elaborate test procedures of the DNV-GL classification society, the cables have also been tested in the igus test laboratory under real conditions. You therefore have the unique chainflex guarantee of 36 months. So, for every maritime application there is an optimal solution in our product range. In the simplest case, a free chainflex price check will advise you which cable is the best for your individual needs at sea.
