Beskrivelse
Cables are everywhere around us and most of the time not visible once they are installed. However in the event of fire rolling stock equipments should remain functional to help in the evacuation process. Fire resistant cables are designed to be used in safety systems (emergency lighting, fire detection, warning systems, door opening, etc.) for control or power feeding. Nexans is dedicated to improve safety in rolling stock by protecting people’s lives and trail from fires with innovative fire safety cables. These cables ensure the integrity of electrical circuits for a certain time after the fire started.
