Fire Resistant Individual and Overall Screened Instrumentation Cables (Multipair)

RE-2X(St)H PiMF...CI

APPLICATION

The unarmoured LSZH sheathed cables are generally used for indoor installation and suitable for wet and damp

areas. Generally, Fire Resistant Individual and Overall Screened Instrumentation Cables (Multipair) are

used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice transmission signals and

services. Also used for the interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments, the LSZH sheath can reduce

toxic smoke and fume emission.
