Fire-resistant power cable (N)HXCH FE180 PH90/E90 0,6/1 kV 14x2.5/4 RE orange 1222 017 33

Fire-Resistant Power Cable – Safety and Reliability in Critical Situations

This orange fire-resistant power cable (N)HXCH FE180 PH90/E90 0.6/1 kV, equipped with 14 cores of 2.5 mm² cross-section, is designed to ensure uninterrupted power supply during fire hazards. It is a critical component in installations at facilities with enhanced safety requirements, where the operation of fire protection systems must be guaranteed even under extreme conditions.

This cable is ideal for powering equipment that must remain operational during a fire, such as water pumps in fire suppression systems, smoke extraction fans, and emergency lighting. Its construction ensures electrical functionality for up to 90 minutes, which is crucial for effective evacuation and fire suppression. It complies with stringent safety standards certified by the Certificate of Conformity and Approval Certificate issued by the Scientific and Research Center for Fire Protection – PIB in Józefów.

Construction and Properties

This cable features an advanced design that guarantees reliability and resistance to extreme conditions:

• Conductors: Made of soft copper strands (RE – single-strand round, Class 1), ensuring flexibility and ease of installation.
• Insulation: Special silicone rubber insulation provides high resistance to temperature and chemical agents. Core colors comply with PN-HD 308 standard or are marked with white numbers on a black background for easy identification.
• Core: Layers of stranded conductors arranged in a core provide stability and reduce interference.
• Filling: Non-halogenated filling material enhances operational safety.
• Screen: Coaxial core composed of bare copper wires and a copper tape helical anti-twist spiral minimizes electromagnetic interference.
• Outer Sheath: Made of non-halogenated (HFFR) material with HM4 properties according to PN-HD 604 S1, offering UV resistance and fire-retardant properties – does not propagate flame, emits minimal smoke, and releases non-toxic, non-corrosive gases.

Applications and Benefits

This cable is suitable for use in buildings and facilities with enhanced fire protection requirements: metro tunnels, hospitals, shopping centers, cinemas, theaters, stadiums, and other public buildings. It can be permanently installed both indoors and outdoors. Additional protection against water and moisture allows its use even underwater or underground. However, it must not be used in areas protected by fixed water-based fire suppression systems.

Thanks to its properties, this cable represents an investment in human life and property, ensuring reliable operation of fire protection systems during critical moments.
