Halogen free, low smoke and fire hazard cables

Product catalog summary

General Information
Axon Cable provides halogen-free, low smoke, zero halogen cables suitable for public and industrial use, designed to prevent fire propagation and toxic fume emission, enhancing safety during fires.

Non-Propagation of Flame and Fire
The cables are engineered to minimize flame spread and smoke emission, facilitating rescue operations by maintaining visibility and not emitting toxic or corrosive fumes.

Zero Halogen Definition
Zero halogen cables exclude halogen materials like chlorine and bromine, which can release harmful gases when burned. Additives are used to improve flame retardancy.

Testing and Compliance
Axon conducts tests on flame propagation, smoke opacity, toxicity, and corrosivity to ensure compliance with safety standards.

Quality Assurance
Axon Cable complies with quality standards such as ISO 9001 and EN 9100, ensuring high-quality production and environmental management.

International Standards
The cables meet standards like IEC 60331 and IEEE Std 383, which assess cable performance under fire conditions and gas emissions.

Product Range
The document details various cable types, including twisted pair and shielded cables, with specifications for insulation materials, operating temperatures, and voltage ratings. Customization is available.

Materials and Specifications
Materials include POLIAX™ and NEUTRAX™ thermoplastic insulated wires, with operating temperatures from -40°C to +250°C. Detailed specifications cover conductor size, insulation, shielding, and jacket materials.

Conclusion
This catalogue guides the selection of Axon’s halogen-free cables, emphasizing safety and international compliance.

Overview
The document outlines specifications and characteristics of Axon Cable's insulated wires, including construction, materials, dimensions, and performance standards.
