FIREGUARD Flame Retardant Cables | |||
Fire retardant cable(Fireguard)
600/1000V XLPE Insulated, PVC Sheathed, Armoured Power Cables to IEC 60502 (2-4 Cores)
FGD400 1RVMV-R (CU/XLPE/PVC/SWA/PVC 600/1000V Class 2)
Application
The cables are mainly used in power stations, mass transit underground passenger systems, airports,
petrochemical plants, hotels, hospitals, and high-rise buildings. This product type is TUV approved.
Standards
Basic design adapted to IEC 60502-1
Approvals
TUV Certification (Z1 17 01 98200 004)
Fire Performance
Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire Test) | IEC 60332-1 |
---|
Voltage Rating
600/1000V
Cable Construction
Conductor:Annealed copper wire, stranded according to IEC 60228 class 2.
Insulation:XLPE according to IEC 60502-1.
Inner Covering:Extruded PVC or polymeric compound.
Armouring:Galvanized steel wire
Outer Sheath:Extruded PVC Type ST1/ST2 according to IEC 60502-1.
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.
