Application

These flame-resistant cables are used for all locations where a special protection against fire and fire damage to human life and equipment is necessary such as in industry complexes, power stations, public buildings, hotels, airports, subways, theatres, hospitals etc. These cables are suitable for fixed installation in dry or wet areas but not suitable as a direct burrial into water or earth. For installation in conduits all precautions must be taken to prevent an accumulation of water in the pipes.

Note:

• CE = the product is conformed with the EC Low-Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU.
• rm = round stranded core
• re = round solid core
• Conforms to RoHS.
