Shenghua Flexible Fireproof Cables: Engineering Survival in Extreme Fire Conditions

Description

Shenghua Flexible Fireproof Cables: Engineering Survival in Extreme Fire Conditions

When fire erupts in a subway tunnel, hospital, or petrochemical plant, the electrical system becomes a lifeline. Standard cables fail catastrophically—melting at 300°C and emitting lethal toxic smoke. The 1987 King’s Cross fire tragedy, where 31 people succumbed to halogen gas inhalation, exposed this fatal flaw.
​Shenghua Flexible Fireproof Cables (0.6/1kV)​​ are engineered to prevent history from repeating. Combining a revolutionary inorganic insulation system with unprecedented flexibility, they guarantee ​​3 hours of circuit integrity at 1000°C​​, ensuring emergency lighting, ventilation, and critical systems survive when everything else fails.

Breakthrough Design: The Four-Layer Life-Saving Architecture

Our cable’s superiority is baked into its multi-layer, synergistic construction, designed for both ultimate fire resistance and practical installation.
  1. ​Stranded Copper Conductor (IEC 60228 Class 2):​
    • ​Survives Vibration & Movement:​​ The flexible stranded design withstands vibrations in rail tunnels and seismic zones, preventing fracture where rigid conductors fail.
  2. ​Inorganic Insulation (Mica/Mineral-Based):​
    • ​1,000°C/3h Circuit Integrity:​​ This is the core of our fireproof capability. It drastically outperforms standard XLPE, which fails at approximately 250°C, and provides stability even in high-radiation environments.
  3. ​Integrated Copper Sheath with PE Wire:​
    • ​Dual-Function Efficiency:​​ The copper sheath provides robust mechanical protection and acts as a continuous grounding conductor and EMI shield. This innovation ​​eliminates the need for a separate grounding wire, cutting installation costs by up to 20%.​
  4. ​LSZH Outer Sheath:​
    • ​Ultra-Low Toxicity:​​ Emitting ​​<100 ppm toxic gas​​ (per IEC 60754), the Low Smoke Zero Halogen sheath prevents the formation of corrosive hydrochloric acid, protecting both people and sensitive equipment.

Critical Applications: Where Shenghua’s Flexibility Saves Lives and Time

This cable is the specified choice for engineers who will not compromise between safety and installability.

Public Transit Tunnels

Post-King’s Cross safety mandates require cables that won’t produce toxic smoke. Shenghua cables maintain power to emergency systems, with minimal smoke ensuring ​​>60% light transmittance​​ for safe evacuation, while their flexibility speeds installation through complex tunnel conduits.

High-Rise Hospitals

In healthcare facilities, the zero-halogen sheath prevents toxic gas buildup in pressurised stairwells during evacuations. The flexibility allows for easier routing in tight riser shafts, ensuring critical life-saving equipment remains powered.

Petrochemical Plants

The inorganic insulation resists oil and acid corrosion, and the robust construction withstands mechanical shock. The flexible design is crucial for routing through complex industrial pipe racks and hazardous areas.

Certified Trust: Validated by Global Safety Standards

Shenghua’s cables are backed by the most rigorous international certifications.
  • ​Compliance:​​ Meets ​​JG/T313-2014 (China)​​ and ​​IEC 60702-2002 (Global)​​.
  • ​Flame Retardancy:​​ Exceeds IEC 60332-3-22 vertical flame test requirements.
  • ​Toxicity:​​ Passes IEC 60754-1 halogen acid gas emission tests.
  • ​Compatibility:​​ Designed for seamless integration with major switchgear from Siemens, ABB, and others.

Why Engineers Specify Shenghua: The Smart Economic Choice

Unmatched Installation Efficiency

The ​​15x bend radius​​ slashes labor time and cost in confined spaces like ship engine rooms and data centers, making what was once a difficult installation a straightforward process.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

While the upfront cost is marginally higher, the ​​30-year lifespan​​ and reduced installation time deliver significant savings over the cable's life, making it the most economical and safe choice long-term.

Commitment to Eco-Safety

The recyclable LSZH sheath aligns with EU RoHS/REACH directives, ensuring your project meets the highest environmental and safety standards without PFAS "forever chemicals."

Shenghua Flexible Fireproof Cables: Engineering Survival in Extreme Fire Conditions​

In high-risk environments like subway tunnels, hospitals, or petrochemical plants, ​​traditional cables fail catastrophically during fires—melting at 300°C and emitting lethal halogens​​. The 1987 King’s Cross fire (toxic smoke killed 31 people) exposed this fatal flaw. Shenghua’s ​​Flexible Fireproof Cables​​ (0.6/1kV, 750V) redefine safety with copper-sheathed inorganic insulation, zero-halogen materials, and compliance with ​​JG/T313-2014/IEC 60702-2002​​, ensuring circuit integrity even at 1,000°C for 3 hours
