Key Benefits
Excellent Fire Survival Capability
Double mica tape and BS 6387 CWZ design enable the cable to continue transmitting power under fire conditions, ensuring
operation of life safety systems.
Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
Produces minimal smoke and no corrosive halogen gases, reducing hazards and protecting equipment during emergencies.
High Mechanical Strength
Steel wire armour provides outstanding resistance against impact, compression, and external mechanical damage.
Stable Electrical Performance
Conductor resistance ≤3.08 Ω/km
Dielectric strength: 3500V/5min without breakdown
Rated voltage: 0.6/1kV
Wide Temperature Range
Suitable for environments from -20°C to +90°C.
Installation & Performance Considerations
Recommended Installation
✔ Indoor and outdoor installation
✔ Cable tray and conduit systems
✔ Underground installation with suitable protection
✔ Industrial and commercial power distribution systems
✔ Emergency circuits requiring fire survival capability
Installation Guidelines
- Avoid exceeding the minimum bending radius during installation.
- Prevent excessive pulling tension to protect armour and insulation.
- Ensure glands and accessories are compatible with SWA construction.
- Keep cable ends sealed before installation to prevent moisture ingress.
- Follow local electrical codes and fire safety regulations.
FAQ
Q1: Is this cable suitable for fire alarm systems?
A: Yes. It is widely used in fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, smoke control systems, and critical power circuits requiring
continuous operation during a fire.
Q2: Can the cable be installed underground?
A: Yes. The galvanized steel wire armour provides mechanical protection, making it suitable for underground and outdoor
installations when properly installed.
Q3: Why choose LSZH sheath material?
A: LSZH materials emit very little smoke and no halogen gases during combustion, improving visibility and reducing damage to
people and electronic equipment.
Q4: Can customized sizes and lengths be supplied?
A: Yes. CHATNOW provides customized conductor sizes, core counts, sheath colors, printing, and packing lengths according to
project requirements.
Q5: What is the regular packing length?
A: The standard packing is 500 meters per wooden drum, with custom lengths available upon request.
