 Cable sheath materials   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
PVC sheaths have good fire properties and will normally pass the flame retardance requirement of IEC 60332-3, but since PVC emits lots of dark smoke and acid gasses, it will not meet the smoke requirement of IEC 61034, nor the corrosion and halogen requirements of IEC 60754.
The operating temperature is typically in the range -20°C to +80°C. These sheath compounds have good fire properties and will normally satisfy both the flame retardant requirement of IEC 60332-3, the smoke emission requirement of IEC 601034, and the corrosion and halogen requirement of IEC 60754.
Rubber sheaths based on EVA are normally halogenfree, and by adding flame retardants we can make very robust cables that can be used in the most demanding industrial applications such as the oil and offshore industry.
