RR Kabel Ltd has announced the launch of the Firex LS0H-EBXL, a groundbreaking innovation in house wire solutions. Engineered with cutting-edge technology and a commitment to safety, the Firex LS0H-EBXL sets a new standard for electrical wiring in both residential and commercial settings.
The Firex LS0H-EBXL (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) –EBXL (Electron Beam Cross Linked) represents a significant breakthrough in electrical safety. This revolutionary product utilises an innovative electron beam cross-linked compound that is completely halogen-free and can withstand temperatures up to an incredible 900°C. The unveiling event took place at Holiday Inn Cochin on 10th June 2024 and was attended by industry leaders, trade partners, and stakeholders.
Shreegopal Kabra, Managing Director, RR Kabel, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “RR Kabel has consistently pioneered product innovations that positively impact people’s lives. Firex LS0H-EBXL is another stride in this direction, exemplifying our commitment to innovation, safety, and sustainability.”
The Firex LS0H-EBXL offers numerous advantages over traditional PVC-based counterparts, including:
Non-Toxic and Non-Corrosive: The cross-linked halogen-free flame-retardant insulation ensures over 93 per cent visibility in case of a fire accident, eliminating the risk of dark and toxic smoke emissions. This clear visibility aids in speedy rescue operations.
Extreme Operating Temperature: Suitable for continuous operation in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +110°C, ensuring reliable performance in extreme weather conditions.
Higher Current Ratings: Offers 103 per cent higher current carrying capacity compared to traditional wires, ensuring safety and longevity.
Higher Short Circuit Temperature: Provides over 85 per cent higher short-circuit temperature withstanding capacity compared to PVC or halogen-free wires, making it safer during high fire conditions.
Robust Construction: Features excellent water-resistant and abrasion-resistant properties, along with anti-rodent and anti-termite properties, prolonging the wire’s service life.
Compliance: Meets industry standards including REACH, RoHS, CE, and CPR, making it free from 240+ hazardous substances, including lead, mercury, and phthalates, thereby making it the safest choice for consumers.
With the new 2023 regulations by the Central Electricity Authority (CEA) mandating halogen-free wires for public and commercial buildings, Firex LS0H-EBXL is perfectly positioned to meet this critical safety need across India’s construction sector.
RR Kabel’s Firex LS0H-EBXL is a testament to the company’s dedication to innovation and safety, ensuring a safer and more sustainable future for all.
