Knowing what these cable properties mean can help ensure you are getting the right cable for your application.
Factory automatics robotics.
Flame retardant cables are designed to resist the spread of fire into a new area.
Fire resistant cables are designed to maintain circuit integrity and continue to work for a specified period of time under defined conditions.
A flame resistant cable in this manner would let the circuit stay in operation allowing power to be transferred through it while this would not be the case with a flame retardant cable.
In addition to maintaining the general characteristics and electrical properties.
A flame retardant cable is designed only to restrict the spread of a fire by inhibiting combustion.
Fire resistant cables are used in critical electrical circuits such as safety circuits and life support circuits which are required to function in the case of emergencies.
Fire resistant and fire retardant cable sheaths are design to resist combustion and limit the propagation of flames.
A flame retardant cable is not a fire rated cable.
600 1000v xlpe insulated copper wire screened lszh sheathed flame retardant cables.
Fire resistive cables maintain circuit integrity and continue to work for a specific time under defined conditions such as fire.
Iec 60332 3 bs 4066 3 test non propagation of.
Flame retardant cables are not intended to continue to operating under fire circumstance but are used to resist the flame from spreading.
In the event of fire the cable may produce a large amount of corrosive gases and.
A flame retardant cable on the other hand will not propagate or convey a fire.
Ordinary flame retardant cable.
Lszh flame retardant and lszh fire resistant cable are two distinct types of cable properties although these terms are often misused.
A flame retardant cable is designed to only restrict the spread of a fire by restraining combustion.
Fire resistant or fire rated cables are designed to maintain circuit integrity and continue to work for a specified period of time under defined conditions.
Flame and fire can be used interchangeably but the confusion occurs between retardant and resistant.
