Fire-resistant telecommunication cable HTKSH 1x2x0.5 red 0019 015 23

Fire-resistant telecommunication cable – safety and reliability of connections

This red telecommunication cable HTKSH 1x2x0.5 is designed for demanding installations where safety and fire resistance are crucial. Intended for permanent connections in fire alarm systems, fire automation, and data transmission, it ensures reliable operation even in extreme conditions. The cable is distinguished by the use of halogen-free materials, which minimize the risk of toxic gas formation in the event of a fire – this is important for protecting health and life.

Construction and practical application

The HTKSH cable consists of two copper conductors with a cross-section of 0.5 mm², insulated with halogen-free plastic. Twisted pair conductors provide better resistance to interference. The construction also includes a polyester tape wrapping the cable core and an outer jacket made of halogen-free HFFR plastic, meeting the standards EN 50290-2-27 and VDE 0250-214 (HM2). This makes the cable ideal for installation inside buildings where high fire resistance and minimal emission of harmful substances during a fire are required.

These types of cables are widely used in:

• Fire alarm systems (SSWiP)
• Fire automation systems
• Telecommunication and teletechnical installations
• Industrial automation and control
• Data transmission in buildings with increased fire safety requirements

Safety and compliance with standards

The HTKSH cable has a Certificate and Approval from the Scientific Research Center for Fire Protection – PIB in Józefów, which confirms its high quality and compliance with applicable safety standards. The use of halogen-free materials translates to:

• Low smoke emission during a fire, which facilitates evacuation
• No release of toxic and corrosive gases, protecting human health and equipment
• Limited spread of fire, increasing the chances of controlling the situation

Additionally, the cable meets the ROHS directives and has the CE mark, guaranteeing its compliance with European quality and environmental standards.
