Water immersion /weather resistant intumescent Frestop cable coating for combustible electrical & communication cables
Cable fire suppression coatings, ideally should provide the following two key protections:
1. Prevention of fire propagation on cables
: (Governing international test standard - IEC 60332-3-21, IEEE 383 & FM 3971)
2. Protection of cables against direct fire exposure
: (Governing international test standard - IEC 60331-1
1)In addition, the above two protections, should be for a minimum period of
30 minutes, ideally at a fire temperature of >1100°C (Hydrocarbon).
The longer this protection time span, naturally the more superior the coating /protection capability.
Firex EC 43, today, uniquely provides the longest time span fire protection-
, in the world, at fire temp. of >1100ºC. circuit integrity
(Most cable coatings provide either only one of these protections, or only for a minimum time interval of 2-5 minutes, against 750ºC fire).
