Firefree Cable

Firefree Cable is non-toxic, solvent free, asbestos free, non-carcinogenic, odorless and will not affect human skin.Firefree Cable is easy to apply with an airless sprayer and can be brushed on small surfaces and inaccessible areas.    Because of its ease of application and minimal inconvenience to occupants, Firefree Cable is a very cost effective method to provide critical fireproofing.

Firefree Cable is fully proven and has been tested to all recognized international standardsincluding Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS, Intl). Firefree Cable is compliant for flammability, salt water exposure, current carry capacity, ampacity and dielectric strength. It has passed 25 year exposure to a wide variety of ageing and weatherization test criteria.

Firefree Cable is unique because it is chemical, water and weather resistant enabling its use in both interior and exterior installations.  Firefree Cable is also the only coating that will protect cable installations from heat generated by an outside heat source as well as from heat generated by the current flow of the wire itself.  There is no de-rating of the cable with the application of Firefree Cable.Since Firefree Cable  protects electrical cable through ablation, energy is consumed.  This energy consuming process is called an endothermic reaction. A good ablative composition requires tremendous amounts ofenergy to decompose. As a result, when Firefree Cable coated cables are exposed to an external fire or a heat source generated by a short circuit, the endothermic process will immediately begin.

Firefree Cable is the first coating to bring a true fire barrier to a wide variety of individual and grouped cables and cable tray installations and can be effectively specified for both interior and exterior installations.  As a result, Firefree Cable can provide a high level of fire protection for sites with extensive cable usage.  Facilities such as existing industrial plants, research facilities, communication facilities, power plants and both private and government facilities greatly benefit from the added assurance against a large monetary loss as well as lowered insurance premiums.
