LSZH Sheathing for Building & Power Cable
A capability scenario for building and power cable with low-smoke halogen-free insulation and sheathing, combining LSZH compounds with building-wire and sheathing extrusion lines.
Challenge
- Limit smoke and corrosive gas for cables in occupied buildings
- Hold consistent surface quality and dimensions at production speed
- Meet FT2 / IEC 60332 flame requirements for the cable type
- Keep insulation and sheath durable through installation
Materials and machinery, matched
Low-smoke halogen-free insulation and sheathing compounds are run on matched building-wire and sheathing extrusion lines. The compounds extrude cleanly to a smooth, round surface, while the LSZH formulation addresses fire-safety requirements for installation in occupied spaces.
Materials used
HZD2720-L for 125 °C low-smoke halogen-free insulation; HZDFR4100 thermoplastic LSZH for the sheath.
Machinery used
Building wire extrusion line
Insulation and sheathing
Outer jacket / sheath line
