I. FIREX EC 43 (FM), HIGH SOLIDS THIN FILM INTUMESCENT WEATHER,

WATER IMMERSION RESISTANT FIRESTOP CABLE COATING FM 3971
Tested & Certified
FIREX EC 43 (FM) is a Fire Suppression Coating especially designed for protecting electric power cables, communication cables,
FIREX EC 43
against heat damage.
APPROVALS :
• FM 3971 Fire Retardant Coating for “Grouped Electrical Cables”. Approval covers the following tests & approval reflects “On – Line” on the FM website:
- Scorch tests /self propagation.
- Fire test on electrically heated cables via 150% of rated current.
the ageing tests.

- Ampacity tests /cable de-rating tests.
- Salt water immersion tests.
- Manufacturing plant & process audits.
• IEC 332 Covers : Single cable vertical flame propagation / burning tests.
• IEC 331 Covers : Single cable horizontal fire survivability tests.
• IEEE 383 Covers : Single cable vertical flame self propagation test.
HIGHEST % SOLIDS (68 – 70 %) : BEST IN CLASS INTUMESCENCE
Expands over 65 times by volume for the best in class heat insulation, best in class prevention of coated area
ignition, best seal against fire ingress, as well as best in class flame resistance & flame propagation retardance.
Technology is superior to ablative cable coatings as the thermal barrier effect is better in high expansion intumescent
technology – coated cable survivability is thus superior under conditions of severe fire exposure.
UNIQUE THIN FILM PROTECTION

Flexible. Will not reduce heat dissipation or cable ampacity unlike older “CEMENTITIOUS” type technologies.
Protects cable sheaths against heat ageing with fire suppression at lower DFT’s.
UNIQUELY TESTED & APPROVED BY LEADING GLOBAL INSTITUTIONS FOR TOTAL

RELIABILITY OF PROTECTION.
VERSATILE
Performs on Rubber, PVC FRP, Paper, Wood… Easy to install “In-Situ” on cables of varying sizes.
DURABLE
Non ageing performance. Ageing has no influence on the intumescence /protection effect. Excellent rain water
resistance. Effectively useable outdoors.
UNIQUE WEATHERING & WATER IMMERSION RESISTANCE

FIREX EC 43 (FM) is a heavy duty, acrylic water based intumescent coating with unique resistance to
weatherability & water immersion resistance, encountered in industrial & power utility applications & is tested
on these parameters - salt water immersion tests & ageing tests as per FM 3971.
In the event of fire FIREX EC 43 (FM) expands as a result of heat exposure and cures to an insulating char.
« Flame spread on cables and insulation damage are delayed in the case of prolonged exposure to fire or heat.
« Current rating of the coated electrical cables is not reduced. The Physics of Fire
Cable are a rich source of FUEL!
« Escape routes and power supply can be used for a longer time. One FOOT of Loaded Tray = 1500,00 BTUs’
« Significant extension of operative condition of cables.

« Smoke generated from the protected material is significantly minimised.
« Dripping or dropping of burning cable fragments is limited in amount and time depending on kind and intensity
of the fire. Equivalent to 4.2 liters of Petrol!
Fully Loaded 33 cm x 10 cm Tray
« Non – Toxic. Free of asbestos, halogens…
