Fire Protective Cable Coating In A Fire Test. FS1 intumescent coating expansion test.

Fire Security do fire protection of electrical cables with either intumescent or ablative coating. The intumescent cable coating FS1 expands during a fire, hereby insulating and shielding the cable from fire damage. Our latest fire test shows how the expanding FS1 intumescent cable coating will protect the inner electrical cable from fire damage. The cable coating will expand up to 100 times its thickness and may even provide protection for underlaying unprotected cables. In a fire situation your FS coated cables will function during the fire and be useable afterwards. The IEC 60331 standard fire resistant cable can only withstand 750-830° C (1382-1526° F) in a fire situation, while FS coated cables can survive a hydrocarbon fire of 1100° C (2012° F) for more than 1 hour – without any problem to the insulation or the electrical properties of the cable.
