Halogen-free data cable for fire alarm systems, shielded J-H(St)H 6x2x0.8 mm red, color-coded wires acc. to DIN VDE 0815 34118

Halogen-free cable for fire protection systems – safety and reliability

This red, shielded halogen-free cable is specifically designed for use in fire protection systems and telecommunications installations. Its construction minimizes the risk of fire spreading and the release of toxic gases in the event of a fire, making it an ideal choice for facilities with increased safety requirements. The use of shielding protects signals from electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable data transmission.

Construction and properties

The cable features a 6x2x0.8 mm construction, meaning 12 working conductors twisted into 6 pairs. The conductors are colored according to DIN VDE 0815 standard, which facilitates identification and improves comfort during installation. Made of un-tinned copper, with HI2 halogen-free component insulation, it meets stringent fire safety standards. Additionally, the cable has a static screen made of aluminum foil with plastic, which effectively suppresses interference. The outer jacket is made of flame-retardant HM2 material, also halogen-free.

Applications and benefits

This wire is used in telecommunications installations in dry and humid indoor environments, both surface-mounted and concealed. It is particularly recommended for fire alarm systems, where reliability and safety are crucial. Its halogen-free construction protects human health and minimizes damage to infrastructure in the event of a fire. The cable meets the requirements of IEC 60332-1-2 standards regarding fire behavior and IEC 60754-2 standards regarding the corrosiveness of fire gases. The operating voltage of the cable is 300V – please note that it is not suitable for high-current applications. The cable's flexibility allows for easy installation even in difficult conditions.
