  • FIREBAR™ – Total Safety Fire Resistant Cable

    Designed to retain its electrical operation after being subjected to fire and the damaging effects of firefighting water equipment, the Firebar™ range of Cables (tested at the Warrington Fire Global Safety laboratories) has been proven to function after re-burning already fire damaged cable to 1000°C and then subjecting it to full submersion in water.

    Further testing has also been carried out allowing for a single cable to be burnt at 100°C for in excess of four hours whilst sustaining mechanical shocks every 30 seconds, whilst also being ‘drenched’ by a ‘water spray’ device providing 1.2 litres of water per M² per second, again electrical functionality is retained.

    Firebar is designed for onshore and offshore environments including oil and gas refineries and storage units, drilling and marine sectors .
