1. Product Introduction
Fire-resistant cables are flame-retardant and fire-resistant cables. They generally refer to mineral-insulated cables (MI cables) with insulation made of inorganic materials such as magnesium oxide and mica, or cables with similar properties.
The 750V-rated flexible inorganic-insulated fire-resistant power cable is an upgrade to traditional mineral-insulated cables. It utilizes solid or stranded copper wire as the conductor, inorganic tapes such as mica and silica with excellent dielectric properties as the insulation, and a metallic sheath such as copper or stainless steel as the sealing sheath. This cable retains the high-temperature resistance, fire resistance, low smoke, non-toxicity, and aging resistance of traditional mineral-insulated cables, while overcoming their drawbacks, such as poor bending performance, moisture absorption, numerous joints, inconvenient installation, expensive manufacturing equipment, complex processes, low production output, high energy consumption, and limited manufacturing lengths. This creates a stronger foundation for the widespread application of fire-resistant cables.
This product is suitable for use in densely populated areas such as large shopping malls, hospitals, office buildings, and subways, as well as in critical facilities such as offshore oil platforms, chemical plants, refineries, museums, and computer centers. It offers high safety and reliability.
