Fire-resistant power cable (N)HXCH FE180 PH90/E90 0.6/1 kV 4x4/4 RE orange 1222 009 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 4x4/4 RE, manufactured by TECHNOKABEL S.A., is designed to ensure uninterrupted power supply during fire emergencies. It is a critical component of safety systems in public buildings, industrial facilities, and any location requiring high fire resistance and minimal emission of toxic substances. This cable is particularly recommended for powering fire safety equipment such as fire pump systems and smoke extraction fans.

Construction and Application

These cables feature an advanced construction using high-quality materials. Conductors are made of soft stranded copper (RE – single-wire round, Class 1), ensuring flexibility and ease of installation. Insulation is made from specially cross-linked silicone rubber, guaranteeing resistance to high temperatures and long-term reliability. The cable has a halogen-free (HFFR) sheath with HM4 properties according to PN-HD 604 S1, minimizing smoke and toxic gas emission during fire. This ensures compliance with stringent safety standards and protects both people and equipment.

These cables are used in buildings and facilities with enhanced fire safety requirements: metro tunnels, hospitals, shopping centers, cinemas, theaters, stadiums, and other public buildings. They maintain electrical functionality for 90 minutes (PH90/E90), which is essential for safe evacuation and effective fire suppression. They must not be installed in areas protected by fixed water-based fire suppression systems.

Key Features and Benefits

• Fire Resistance: Ensures uninterrupted power supply during fire for a minimum of 90 minutes (PH90/E90).
• Halogen-Free: Halogen-free sheath minimizes emission of toxic gases and smoke during fire, enhancing user safety.
• Durability: Copper conductors and high-quality insulation guarantee long-term reliability and resistance to mechanical damage.
• Flexibility: Soft copper strands facilitate installation and routing even in confined or complex spaces.
• Standards Compliance: Certified with a Certificate of Conformity and Approval Certificate issued by the Scientific-Research Center for Fire Protection – PIB in Józefów.
• Resistance to Environmental Factors: Cable sheath is UV-resistant, enabling use both indoors and outdoors. Can be installed in soil or water when protected against moisture.
• Conductor Cross-Section: 4 mm², suitable for delivering adequate current for most fire safety applications.
• Number of Conductors: 4 cores provide flexibility in electrical system configuration.

Thanks to these features, this cable provides a reliable solution for installers and investors seeking the highest level of fire safety protection.
