Casico FR4803 is a thermoplastic, low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) flame retardant, UV stabilised, natural jacketing compound combining with excellent extrusion properties. The composition is based on the elements Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Silicon and Calcium. Compounds based on these elements will therefore be the only significant constituents of the combustion fumes. Other elements may be present in concentrations less than 0.1%.
It is based on the novel technology, Casico, containing inorganic filler and a novel char-forming additive which confer flame retardancy with very limited smoke generation.
Applications
Casico FR4803 is designed for: Jacket for 90 °C rated building wires (installation cables) and 1 kV low voltage cables
It can be used in areas sensitive to smoke or corrosive and toxic combustion products. For most cable constructions, Casico FR4803 has sufficient flame retardancy to satisfy single wire vertical burning tests.
Specifications
Casico FR4803 meets the applicable requirements below using sound commercial extrusion practice and testing procedures: ASTM D 1248 Type I, Class A, Category 4 ISO 1872-PE KGHN-23D006
The following cable material standards are met by Casico FR4803: EN 50290-2-27 EN 50363-8 TM7 VDE 0207 Teil 24 (HM2, HM4 & HM5) BS 7655 LTS1-4
Cables manufactured with Casico FR4803 using sound extrusion practice normally comply with the following cable product standards: EN 50288 VDE 0250 Teil 215 BS 7211 IEC 60502 Part 1 ST3
Special Features
Casico FR4803 consists of specially selected components to offer: Low smoke and reduced toxic or corrosive gas emissions Excellent processing properties Superb system ageing compatibility Low water permeability UV stabilised and suitable for colouring Possibility for cable downsizing Processability on most PVC/PE extrusion equipment No need for pre-drying normally
