Firezone® MC1 & 3HR cables - Fire resistant low smoke zero halogen cables designed specifically for the nuclear industry. Firezone® MC1 helps maintain the critical electrical link between essential equipment during a 1 hour ASTM E-119 fire event. Firezone® 3HR performs this vital function for a 3 hour fire event. These cables can be used for power or control circuits.
- Withstands 2000 F flame for 60+ minutes as a critical cable for circuits to perform under catastrophic fire conditions
- Firezone® MC1 meets UL 2196 Fire Resistive Cable Standard requirements as a 1 hour "Electrical Circuit Integrity System". Firezone® 3HR meets this standard for a 3 hour period of time
- For NFPA 805 and Appendix R applications
- Firezone® MC1: 60 year life at 90°C continuous conductor temperature. Firezone® 3HR: 40 year life at 90°C continuous conductor temperature
