BS6724 Cable | Zero Halogen Prysmian Afumex Cable

BS6724 Cable - Zero Halogen Prysmian Afumex Cable

Prysmian Afumex BS6724

Low Smoke Zero Halogen Cable

Prysmian Afumex low voltage armoured power cables are manufactured to British Standard Approval BS6724 with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen bedding compound and cable sheath (black)  600v/1000V. BS6724 multi-core cables are available in single, 2, 3 and 4 core construction with armour protection – SWA steel wire armoured for multi-core and AWA aluminium wire armour for single core cables.

BS6724 cable is constructed using plain annealed copper stranded (Class 2) conductors with cross sectional areas of 1.5sqmm-1000sqmm.

Afumex BS6724 is a direct replacement for PVC sheathed BS5467 standard armoured cables where Low Smoke Zero Halogen cable specification and performance is required.,

Afumex | Low Smoke Cables

Afumex cables are low smoke high performance and flame retardant electrical cables for power and control cables – the cable sheath is LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) which the event of a fire will emit very low levels of smoke and non-toxic levels of poisonous halogen gases.

  • Low Smoke: meets BS EN 61034-2
  • Zero Halogen: meets BS EN 60754-1
  • Flame Retardant: meets BS EN 60332-1-2 or BS EN 60332-3-24
  • Fully approved: BASEC approved to BS EN 50525-3-41, BS7211, BS6724 or BS8436
