FIRE PROTECTION

Cable Protection

Fire Protection Coatings
FS coating system has passed tests to protect cables from hydrocarbon fires at 1,100C for 1 hour. In the event of an oil spill fire, cables without FS coating will experience damage to the cable sheath within 2 minutes, resulting in a short circuit. However, cables with FS coating can withstand up to 1 hour without a short circuit.
