FIRE PERFORMANCE

Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire Test) :BS EN 60332-1-2

VOLTAGE RATING

300V, 500V

  • Overall Screened Instrumentation Cables
  • RE-2X(St)Y

CABLE CONSTRUCTION

Conductor : Plain or metal coated copper wire, solid, stranded or flexible according to IEC 60228 class 1, 2 and 5.

Insulation : Extruded XLPE compound according to EN 50290-2-29. PVC, PE, PP compound can be offered as options.

Pairs : Two insulated conductors uniformly twisted together with a lay not exceeding 100mm (≤1.5mm²) or 150mm (for 2.5mm²).

Binder Tape : PETP transparent tape.

Overall Screen : Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over the laid up cores with metallic side down in contact with tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm². Copper braid screen or aluminium/polyester tape combination with copper braid screen can be offered as option.

Outer Sheath : Thermoplastic PVC compound according to EN 50290-2-22.

Outer Sheath Option : UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti-rodent and anti-termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.

COLOUR CODE

Insulation Colour : Colours and/or additional ring markings and/or symbols achieved by the use of coloured insulation or by a coloured surface using extrusion, printing or painting.

Outer Sheath : Black. Other colours can be offered upon request.
