Nexans FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables are intended for use in various primary and secondary industries, including chemical processing plants, refineries and general factory environments.
STANDARDS
National : CSA C22.2 N° 131
DESCRIPTION
Even in the most demanding industrial and resource industry applications, Nexans FIREX®-II TECK90 cables have proven to have a superior service and maintenance record.

FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables utilize low acid gas, low flame spread PVC jacket compounds to ensure maximum safety to personnel and equipment in the event of fire.

Applications

FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables, originally developed for use in Canadian mines, are flexible, resistant to mechanical abuse, corrosion resistant, compact and reliable. They are suitable for a wide range of applications, including ALL hazardous locations - Class I, Division 1 and 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; and Class III.

Industries such as pulp and paper, chemical, petroleum and other primary and secondary manufacturing industries have used FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables, particularly in areas where cables are subject to the risk of mechanical damage and chemical attack.

Commercial applications for FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables include apartment buildings and commercial complexes.

FIREX®-II TECK90 Cables can be relocated easily because they are rugged and flexible. They can be used in both dry and wet locations in open wiring, in ventilated, non-ventilated and ladder-type cable troughs, in ventilated flexible cableways, and for direct burial.

TECK90 Cables are also suitable for service entrance installations - above and below ground.

Notes:  
1) Where stated, “nominal” and “approximate” values are provided for information purposes only   
and are subject to standard manufacturing tolerances.  
2) Based on CEC Table 2, for not more than 3 current carrying conductors in a cable or raceway.  
3) The overcurrent protection shall not exceed 20 amperes for 12 AWG, and 30 amperes for 10 AWG after any  
corrections factors for ambient temperature and number of conductors have been applied (CEC Rule 14-104  
(2)), or as provided for by other Rules of the CEC.  
4) The maximum conductor temperature (used to determine the maximum conductor ampacity) shall be based  
on the lowest temperature rating of the electrical equipment, any wire connector, or cable (CEC Rule 4-006).
