FireX NC

Category:

Electron Beam Cross-linked | HFFR (Halogen Free Flame Retardant) insulation | Non-Toxic & Non-Corrosive | Does not melt up to 900ᵒC

Application

FireX NC is designed for critical circuits in environments where enhanced fire safety, low smoke and zero halogen emissions are essential. It is best suited for high-traffic public and commercial spaces such as airports, auditoriums, hospitals, hotels, schools, malls, and retail outlets. Its high-performance insulation, durability, and reliability make it an ideal choice for modern infrastructure with demanding safety and longevity expectations, including high-rise and densely occupied establishments.

Statutory Requirements:

The Central Electricity Authority (CEA) Regulation 2023 has made it mandatory to use Halogen Free Flame Retardant cables in public infrastructures (airports, hospitals, hotels) irrespective of height.
