Standards
National : CSA C22.2 N° 131Description
Even in the most demanding industrial and resource industry applications, Nexans FIREX®-II TECK90 cables have proven to have a superior service and maintenance record.
FIREX®-II TECK90 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 TECK90 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 - Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; and Class III.
Industries such as pulp and paper, chemical, petroleum and other primary and secondary manufacturing industries have used FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables, particularly in areas where cables are subject to the risk of mechanical damage and chemical attack.
Commercial applications for FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables include apartment buildings and commercial complexes.
FIREX®-II TECK90 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, non-ventilated and ladder-type cable troughs, in ventilated flexible cableways, and for direct burial.
TECK90 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.
