SECUREX II 300 Volts FAS 105-LVT

Category: Copper Insulated
Hits: 490

Fire Alarm and Signal. Security System and Extra Low Voltage Cable (FAS 105/LVT)


STANDARDS


National : CSA C22.2 N°208, File No. LL23462


DESCRIPTION


20 to 12 AWG solid bare copper conductors (stranded conductors optional). Multiconductors: 2 to 50 unarmoured. Conductor #3 of multiconductor cables is coloured green, suitable for bonding purposes.

Outer jacket is 105°C flame retardant and sunlight resistant red PVC. Optional aluminum/mylar shield with tinned copper drain wire. Rip cord under jacket for safe, easy jacket stripping.

APPLICATION

SECUREX® II is a 300V 105°C cable specifically designed for the interconnection of security system elements: including fire protective signaling devices such as smoke and fire detectors, fire alarms, and two-way emergency communication systems.

LVT Extra Low Potential Control Cable is for use in normally dry locations for the wiring of control circuits of heating equipment and signaling circuits, etc.

FAS105: Fire Alarm & Signal Cable for interconnection of electrical devices within a security and fire protective signaling system. The cables are intended for installation according to Section 32 of the Canadian Electrical Code.

LVT: Class 2 circuit wiring for installation according to Section 16 of the Canadian Electrical Code.

FT1: For installation in buildings of combustible construction (excluding plenum areas) per the Canadian Electrical Code, Rule 2-126 and the National Building Code Article 3.1.4.3.

FT4: For installation in buildings of non-combustible construction and plenum areas in any building per the Canadian Electrical Code, Rule 2-126 and the National Building Code Articles 3.1.5.18 and 3.6.4.3.
