Cables for alarm- and safety systems

Flexible and

safe solutions,

for decades.

We offer the widest

range of cables on

the market for every

kind of installation.

It´s all about reliability.It is always important to choose high quality cables,

especially when it comes to alarms and safety systems.

Even small and seemingly insignificant details can make

a big difference in terms of ease of handling, functiona-

lity and service life.

We have the cables you are looking for

We offer the widest range of cables on the market for

every kind of installation. The cables we supply carry

signals and power supplies. For extra peace of mind

concerning fire protection, our cables are available in

versions meeting specified fire safety requirements in

installations.

Halogen free for greater safety

We have decided only to include halogen free cables

in this brochure. There is a clear trend in that direc-

tion, and there is no longer any reason for not choosing

halogen free cables. Halogen free cables offer many

advantages – in particular, they make it easier to escape

the building in the event of fire, generating substantial

savings in the long run.

100 years of experience thrown in

At Nexans we research, develop and manufacture cables

for the whole world. For different environments and cli-

mates. And we’ve been doing it for more than a hundred

years. So when you choose our cables, they come with a

whole lot more – our dedication and all the experience

and expertise we’ve built up over the decades.

Product segments

Fire alarms Detector networks often occupy

large volumes so cables must be

easy to install. Nexans cables are

easy to strip and are optimised

to simplify installation in pipes.

Choose from simple, non twisted

pair cables for small conventional

systems and twisted pair cables for

larger addressable systems. The

cables used in fire alarm detector

networks should normally have a

red sheath. If the cables are requi-

red to keep working during a fire,

you should use Nexans Alsecure®

(see page 12 ”Performance during

a fire”).

Video surveillance (CCTV) Locally installed CCTV (closed circuit

TV) systems are increasingly being

used as a crime prevention tool.

Access protection Burglar alarms usually have a

system of control units and sensors.

Indoor and outdoor entry systems

contain card readers, central units

and computers. The cables used

for intruder protection and entry

control are signal cables with vary-

ing flexibility, shielding and cores.

Alternatively, combination cables

can be used with separate cores

carrying the power supply.

Nexans’ wide range makes it easy

to choose the right cables for the

various components.

Performance during a fireThere is a separate fire class for

cables that are required to maintain

sircuit integrity during a fire. These

cables all have unique insulation

material that is not damaged like

normal cables. This category can

include power supply cables as well

as signal cables. They should also

be flame retardant low fire hazard

cables – in other words they must

not give off any toxic or corrosive

gases, and only small amounts of

smoke, if there is a fire.

The Nexans cables for these appli-

cations are called Alsecure®. The

unique insulation (INFIT™) makes the

cables easy to install while ensuring

they still work during a fire.

CCTV (Closed Circuit TeleVision) is a locally installed

video surveillance system. A CCTV system consists of

cameras, monitors, transmission elements (cables),

control systems and storage systems. Our range of

halogen free cables for CCTV includes 75 ohm coaxial

cable.

The S/FTP Category 6A cable together with the

IP67 outlet box offers a safe and robust solution for

solutions for IP network cameras outdoor and in harsh

environments.

For added safety, vi-deo surveillance cables are also flame retar-dant and halogen free.

You often won’t know whether you chose the right cable until after a fire.People always talk about fire protection but it is important to know what this actually

means in practical terms, and to be certain which flame spread rating you need to use.

For cables, you also need to distinguish between flame spread, fire hazard properties and

fire resistance.

Cables that prevent flame spread

Cables running through building levels and walls are a great way for fires to spread. So

the most important requirement when establishing fire protection is to use cables with

properties that prevent the spread of fire. This is why there are general flame spread

classes, and these must always be defined. Our cables have clearly marked flame spread

classes that are informative and easy to understand.

Halogen free – saving lives and money

Smoke and gases from burning cables often cause the biggest problems for people and

equipment. These problems can be reduced if halogen free cables are used. The smoke

from halogen free cables during a fire is much thinner and does not corrode metals.

This makes it easier to clear smoke from rooms, potentially saving lives. That is why our

cables for alarms and safety systems are halogen free.

Still working during a fire

The most critical cables must also be fire resistant. This means they must be guaranteed

to work even during a fire. This is made possible by special insulation material, which is

merely altered rather than destroyed by fire. The cable keeps its shape, the conductors

are kept separate and the cable continues to work. These cables are needed for the fire

alarm system itself, but also for the safety lighting guiding people out of the building, for

the smoke extraction fans and for the lifts. Our range includes fire resistant cables for

power supply and for communication.

Nexans has a full range of cables for fire alarm systems

The right cable for the right use

Cables for fire alarms are available with either red or grey

sheaths depending on the regulations, aesthetic requi-

rements, etc. In larger addressable systems, twisted pair

cable should be used, KLM-LSZH 2x1.0 mm. If shielded

cable is required, Nexans supplies the KLMA LSZH. If the

cables are required to keep working during a fire, fire

resistant Alsecure cables are used.

Installation

The cables for fire alarms are intended for permanent

indoor installation.

Fire resistant cables maintain circuit integrity even when affected by heat or flames.

11

Fire resistant cables are recommended for use in instal-

lations that must maintain circuit integrity during a fire.

Using these cables in important alarm, control, signal and

power supply systems means you can guarantee they will

not be taken down, even if the fire reaches the cables

themselves.

No gases, little smoke

As well as continuing to work during and after a fire,

Nexans fire resistant cables are halogen free so they do

not release any toxic or corrosive gases, and only small

amounts of smoke, if there is a fire. Studies show that this

can save lives and money.

Installation

Examples of systems that must maintain circuit integrity

during a fire include signal and safety systems guiding

people out of the building. Other examples are smoke

extraction fans and lifts. Fire alarm cables, too, if they

pass through areas that are not monitored by detectors,

are required to maintain circuit integrity during a fire.
