Copper Conductor Multi Core SWA BS 6724 0.6/1kV LSZH Cable

What is Halogen Free Cable?

Halogen free cable/wire, also called zero halogen cable, refers to cables where the cable jacketing and insulation is made with materials that produce no toxic halogens when exposed to fire or high temperatures. These halogen free cables are used when smoke considerations are minimal. Halogen-free cables also do not use materials that may have an environmental impact.

What is Low Smoke Cable?

Low smoke cable/wire, also called limited smoke cable, refers to cables where the cable jacketing and insulation is made with materials that produce no or only small amounts of smoke when exposed to fire or high temperatures. These low smoke cables are used when halogen considerations are minimal.

Applications

Single core LSZH cable with aluminium wire armour (AWA). Power and auxiliary control cables for use in power networks, underground, outdoor and indoor applications and for use in cable ducting. For installation where fire, smoke emission and toxic fumes create a potential threat to life and equipment.

Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen Key features:

• LSZH materials for low-smoke properties and reduced toxicity

• Tinned copper conductors resist corrosion

• Stranded conductors for installation flexibility

• Multiconductor and multipair configurations

• Unshielded versions for smallest diameter

• Foil shielded, overall or individual pairs, for EMI protection and improved signal integrity

• Color-coded conductor insulation for easy identification

Packing and shipping

We are capable of meeting the most strict delivery schedules according to per purchase order. Meeting the deadline is always the top priority as any delay in the delivery of cable can contribute to overall project delay and cost overrun.
Cable is supplied in wooden reels, corrugated boxes and coils. Cable ends are sealed with BOPP self adhesive tape and non-hygroscopic sealing caps to protect the cable ends from moisture. The required marking shall be printed with a weather-proof material on the outsides of drum according to customer's requirement.
