 SR Insulated & LSZH Sheathed Fire Resistant Cables to DIN VDE 0815

JE-H(St)H…Bd FE180 E30        JE-H(St)H…Bd FE180 E30 BMK

Application

The cables are similar in design and application to CW 1600, but with Silicon Rubber Insulation. They are used for the internal wiring of building when the circuit integrity during fire is paramount. The cables are intended for use in fire fighting plants with special ceramized silicon insulation, with and without aluminium foil and LSZH outer sheath

Construction

Telephone Cables

Telephone Cables

Conductors
Solid annealed bare or tinned copper sized 0.6/0.8/0.9mm as per class 1 of VDE 0295/IEC 60228

Insulation
Silicon Rubber compound as per DIN VDE 0266

Twisted Pairs
Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay length to minimize crosstalk

Cabling Element
Twisted Pairs

Core Assembly
The twisted pairs are stranded to the core in layers

Core Wrapping
One or more non hygroscopic polyester tapes are helically or longitudinally laid with an overlap prior to sheathing

Screen
A laminated Aluminium/Polyester tape is placed in contact with solid copper 0.6mm or 0.8mm drain wire

Inner bedding (for armoured cables)
PE or LSZH compound.

Armour (for armoured cables)
Either corrugated steel tape armour or galvanized steel wire is applied over an inner polyethylene sheath. For steel tape armour, the 0.15mm thick steel tape is coated with a copolymer and applied with an overlap. For steel wire armour, single layer of galvanized steel wire armour is applied

Sheath
LSZH compound HM2 as per VDE 0207-24

Ripcord
Nylon ripcord may be placed parallel to the cores to facilitate sheath removal

Drain Wire
A solid tinned earth/continuity wire shall be laid longitudinally for screened cables

Fire Hazard Performance

1) Minimum Smoke Emission

IEC 61034, EN 50268 ( New: EN 61034), VDE 0482-268 ( New: VDE 0482-1034)
These standards specify a method to measure the generation of smoke from cables during fire. The result is expressed as percentage of light transmitted. Usually, the smoke density shall not be less than 60%.

2) Halogen Free 

IEC 60754-1, EN 50267-2-1
These standards specify a method for determination of the amount of halogen acid gas, evolved during combustion of compound. The hydrochloric acid yield should be less than 0.5%.

3) Non corrosive gases

IEC 60754-2, EN 50267-2-2, VDE 0482-267
These  standards  specify  a  method  for  determination  of  acidity  of  gas  evolved  during combustion of cables by measuring PH and conductivity. The specimen is deemed to pass this test if the pH value is less than 4.3 when related to 1 litre of water and conductivity is less than 10 μs/min.

4) Reduced Fire Propagation

IEC 60332-3C, EN 50266-2-4, VDE 0482-266-2-4
These standards specify a method for flame propagation test for bunched cables.

5) Flame Retardancy

IEC 60332-1, VDE 0482-265-2-1
These standards specify a method for flame propagation test for single core cables.

6) Temperature Index

BS EN ISO 4589-3, BS 2782 Part 1
These standards specify a method for measuring the temperature Index of materials. The temperature index shall be equal or greater than 280ºC.

7) Oxygen Index

BS EN ISO 4589-2, BS 2863
These standards specify a test for measuring the minimum oxygen concentration to support candle like combustion of plastics. The oxygen index shall not be less than 30%.

 Colour Code

Quad colour in each bundle:
Pair 1: Blue-Red         Pair 2: Grey-Yellow        Pair 3: Green-Brown         Pair 4: White-Black
The individual bundles are identified by a numbered helix.
