The Importance of Halogen-Free, Robust Cables and the SIENOPYR Solution

Meeting Critical Safety and Performance Needs with SIENOPYR Cables

When it comes to cables used in high-risk environments, safety is the top priority. In particular, fire safety and mechanical stress resistance are two critical factors that influence cable selection.

Traditional cables, such as those with PVC insulation, can pose significant risks in the event of a fire. When burned, PVC cables release toxic halogen gases, such as hydrogen chloride, which can be hazardous to human health and the environment. Moreover, the dense smoke produced by burning PVC cables can significantly reduce visibility in emergency situations.

The Feichun SIENOPYR(90) cable addresses these challenges through its halogen-free construction, which eliminates the release of toxic gases in the event of a fire.

This is particularly important for applications in enclosed spaces such as underground installations, tunnels, and confined industrial environments where fire risks are higher.

Moreover, cables in industrial settings are often exposed to mechanical stress, vibration, and occasional flexing. The Feichun SIENOPYR(90) cable is specifically designed to withstand these conditions.

With its finely stranded copper conductor, it offers the flexibility required for limited flexing while ensuring reliable performance.

The outer sheath, made of EVA rubber, provides excellent abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, and flame retardancy, making it suitable for the most demanding environments.

Key Benefits of Halogen-Free Construction:

• No toxic fumes released during combustion.

• Low smoke emission, improving safety in emergencies.

• Environmental safety with no harmful gases or pollutants.

The Feichun SIENOPYR(90) cable provides an innovative solution to these critical safety and performance needs.

By eliminating the risks associated with traditional cables, this product ensures a safer environment while maintaining the highest performance standards.
