Fire-resistant power cable (N)HXCH FE180/E90 – Safety and reliability in critical installations

(N)HXCH FE180/E90 cable is an advanced solution designed for installations requiring a high level of fire safety. Its construction, based on copper conductors and a specialized sheath, ensures not only effective power transmission but also resistance to fire and high temperatures. This cable is particularly recommended for use in public utility buildings, industrial facilities, and anywhere the highest fire protection standards are required.

Construction and properties

This cable features a multi-core design with seven cores, each with a cross-section of 4 mm². Made from copper, it meets stringent safety and reliability standards. Fire resistance has been verified through tests in accordance with IEC 60331, and the ability to maintain electrical functionality during a fire has been confirmed in compliance with EN 50200 and DIN 4102-12. Additionally, the cable is halogen-free, meaning it does not emit toxic gases during combustion—critical for protecting human health and the environment. Its flame-retardant properties, both for individual cables and in cable bundles, further enhance safety.

Applications and benefits

This cable is suitable for a wide range of electrical installations:

• Public utility buildings: hospitals, schools, office buildings – ensuring uninterrupted power supply during emergencies.
• Industrial facilities: factories, production halls – protection against fire damage and minimization of downtime.
• Tunnels and underground installations: high resistance to harsh environmental conditions and fire hazards.
• Fire protection systems: powering fire pumps, alarm systems, and evacuation systems – essential for effective response during emergencies.
• Installations in high-risk areas: data centers, server rooms – protection of sensitive equipment from fire-induced damage.

Thanks to its properties, the (N)HXCH FE180/E90 cable provides:

• High safety level: Fire resistance minimizes the risk of fire spread and protects human life.
• Reliable operation: Maintenance of electrical functions during a fire enables continued operation of critical systems.
• Environmental protection: Absence of toxic gas emissions during combustion reduces negative environmental impact.
• Long service life: High-quality materials and robust construction ensure long-term durability.
• Easy installation: Flexible design facilitates cable routing even in challenging conditions.
