Silicon Insulated Cables

Silicon Insulated Cables

Circuit integrity cables are meant to perform in the event of a fire or other similar emergency. These cables are installed for critical devices or circuits in order for a control room to be able to shut down a process or component to lessen the potential for further damage.

An example of this would be turning on a valve to activate a fire suppression system in the event of these cables are tested for fire resistance and electrical continuity under the harshest conditions;

The designs of circuit integrity cables utilize inorganic insulation materials that form a non-conductive char layer when exposed to fire. Our cables have met performance compliance under UL and IEC standards, and can be custom-built if other requirements or standards are needed.

Specially modified thermoset silicone alloy insulation that has acceptable physical properties.  It does not depend on barrier or non-burning materials technology to deliver circuit integrity. When insulation is consumed in a fire it leaves behind a non-conductive mechanically stable ash.  This allows the circuit to continue to function. Our cables have maintained circuit integrity in this test environment for 20 minutes in open tray and conduit.
