Basics of FRLS Cables What is FRLS Cables Disadvantages of Ordinary PVC cables Temperature withstand Capacity 70°C Burns Freely PVC Cable Fire become self-sustaining. It is very dangerous situation. Dense corrosive and toxic smoke is emitted. Visibility in the area of fire Make more difficult situation for emergency services Why FRLS Cables Minimize the panic during the fire. The Emergency services can do their job efficiently During the fire damage of properties can be avoided and can save lots of life What are FRLS Cables FRLS stands for Flame Retardant Low Smoke cables.  Flame Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS) cables, which are manufactured using specially developed FRLS compound for sheathing material of cables.  FRLS cables are designed to resist the combustion and to limit the fire propagation. These FRLS compound sheathings are resistant to ignition and flame propagation. The smoke emission during fire is very low. Advantage of FRLS Cables FRLS Cables are flame Retardant  and hence they stop the propagation of fire due to cables. FRLS Cables produce less amount of smokes and toxic gasses when they burn. Due to lower smoke and gas emission the visibly issues are reduced and people can escape faster form fire area. The personal stuck in the fire area can survive longer due to lower smoke and fumes. The reduced smoke emission help the emergency services to work efficiently. FRLS cables release lower acid fumes.
