Varies from 6 mm to 15 mm depending on construction and armoring

Mechanical Protection

High tensile strength provided by steel wire armoring

Standards Compliance

Complies with UL 1424, BS 7629-1, IEC 60332-1

Technical Advantages

Signal integrity is critical in complex buildings with extensive wiring and electrical interference. Our cables feature precision-engineered shielding, minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensuring uninterrupted communication between fire alarm control panels and sensors. With our cables, you get consistent signal strength over long distances, ensuring real-time alerts without delays or false alarms, even in high-noise environments.

Fire alarm cables are often installed in areas exposed to heat, moisture, and mechanical stress. These cables are built using high-performance materials, such as low-smoke zero halogen (LSZH) sheaths, offering superior resistance to fire, corrosion, and physical damage. They maintain structural integrity in harsh environments, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring your fire detection system remains operational for years.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

What fire alarm cables are commonly used, and how do they function differently?

Fire alarm cables come in several types, including FPL (Fire Power Limited) and FPLR (Fire Power Limited Riser). FPL cables are designed for general use in fire alarm systems, protecting against electrical interference. FPLR cables, like risers, are made for vertical spaces and have a special jacket that limits flame spread. Choosing the right type ensures safety and reliability in fire detection.

How does the installation environment affect fire alarm cable performance?

The environment where fire alarm cables are installed plays a crucial role in their performance. For instance, cables in humid or wet areas should be rated for moisture resistance. Similarly, cables in high-temperature zones must withstand those conditions without degrading. Selecting the right cable based on the installation environment helps maintain effective fire alarm functionality.

What is the significance of the cable's fire rating, and how does it impact safety?

The fire rating of a cable indicates its ability to resist flames and prevent fire spread. Cables are rated as low, medium, or high based on tests like the UL 910. A higher rating means better protection during a fire. Using cables with the appropriate fire rating is essential for safety, as it reduces the risk of fire damage to the alarm system.

Why is it important for fire alarm cables to have low smoke and zero halogen properties?

Fire alarm cables with low smoke and zero halogen (LSZH) properties are designed to minimize toxic smoke and harmful gases during a fire. This is crucial because smoke can obscure visibility and lead to breathing difficulties. Using LSZH cables ensures safer evacuation routes and protects the health of building occupants during a fire emergency.

How do you determine the appropriate gauge for fire alarm cables in a system?

Choosing the right gauge for fire alarm cables depends on the system’s length and current requirements. A lower gauge number means a thicker wire carrying more current over longer distances without voltage drop. For most fire alarm systems, a 14 or 16-gauge is common. It’s essential to consult the system specifications to ensure proper cable gauge for optimal performance and safety.
