Application:
LifeGuard Low Smoke Zero Halogen cable is for use in thermocouple extension applications where protection from electrostatic interference is required. It is highly flame-retardant, produces very small amounts of smoke when burned and contains no halogens. LifeGuard™ cable is ideal for applications where a high degree of safety and equipment protection is required.
LifeGuard cable is NEC listed as Type TC and approved for installation indoors or outdoors, aerially, in conduits, ducts, cable trays and direct burial in circuits not exceeding 600 volts. It may be installed in temperatures as low as -30C and used in NEC Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations.
Product Features:
•FM approved per cable fire propagation Standard 3972, Group 1
•Tray rated
•Sunlight-resistant
•Approved for direct burial
•Overall shield provides protection from electrostatic interference
•Very low smoke production when burned
•LifeGuard jacket produces zero halogens during fire – less toxic and corrosive
•LifeGuard jacket is environmentally safe – lead, sulfur and halogen free
•Highly chemical resistant
•Very flame retardant
•Burns to an ash – does not exhibit thermoplastic drip
•Excellent compression and impact resistance
•Superior tensile strength and abrasion resistance
•Flexible jacket with low coefficient of friction
Conductors:
Annealed, solid thermocouple extension grade alloys calibrated to standard limits of error per ANSI-MC96.1
Insulation:
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) per UL Standard 44, color-coded per ANSI-MC96.1
Overall Shield:
Aluminum-polymer tape providing 100% coverage with a flexible 7 strand tinned copper drain wire
Jacket:
•Sunlight-resistant and flame-retardant, Low Smoke Zero Halogen polyolefin per UL Standard 1277
