FIREX®-II TECK Cables utilize low acid gas, low flame spread PVC jacket compounds to ensure maximum safety to personnel and equipment in the event of fire.

Applications

FIREX®-II TECK Cables, originally developed for use in Canadian mines, are flexible, resistant to mechanical abuse, corrosion resistant, compact and reliable. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, including ALL hazardous locations.

Industries such as pulp and paper, chemical, petroleum and other primary and secondary manufacturing industries have used FIREX®-II TECK Cables, particularly in areas where cables are subject to the risk of mechanical damage and chemical attack.

Commercial applications for FIREX®-II TECK Cables include apartment buildings and commercial complexes.

FIREX®-II TECK Cables can be relocated easily because they are rugged and flexible. They can be used in both dry and wet locations in open wiring, in ventilated, nonventilated and ladder-type cable troughs, in ventilated flexible cableways, and for direct burial.

TECK Cables are also suitable for service entrance installations - above and below ground.

Caution Notice

In case of fire, well maintained early warning smoke detectors will give an alarm long before non-metallic coverings become combustible.

However, in spite of the widespread and long-standing use of PVC in residential and commercial buildings, all purchasers of PVC insulated/ jacketed products should be aware of the following:
  • Non-metallic coverings of electrical cables can burn and may transmit fire when ignited.
  • Burning non-metallic coverings may emit acid gases which are toxic and may generate dense smoke.
  • Emission of acid gases may corrode metal in the vicinity; e.g. sensitive instruments and reinforcing rods in cement.
