New Fire Resistant Cable: Ceramizable Silicone Cable

Ceramized silicone cable

Failures in electrical circuits are currently the main “cause” of the fires, and its causes include: the use of non-fireproof electrical cables, damage to electrical cable conductors, faults in electrical cable connections, cable insulation aging, among others, that cause fires. Therefore, to prevent fires, The choice of materials for electrical cables is especially important. Currently, the cable industry pays great attention to a new type of fire-resistant cable: ceramizable silicone cable.

Military Cables: The Nerve of Defense Technology

Weapon Cables

Military cables are the “sangre” and the “nerve” of military equipment, transmitting electrical energy and information that maintains the normal functioning of each “organ” of military equipment. The cables run through the “body” of military equipment and if any of them present a technical problem, could cause failure in the use of military equipment. Now, let's explore the origin, evolution and crucial importance of military cables in defense technology.

What is the BTTZ Mineral Cable? Features and Applications

BTTZ Cables

BTTZ mineral cables are high fire resistance cables with copper core, copper plating and magnesium oxide insulation. This type of cable is new generation and is made up of solid copper rod conductor, an outer coating of seamless copper tube and an intermediate filling of magnesium oxide crystalline powder as an insulating material. It has characteristics such as resistance to high temperatures, fire and explosion proof. It can operate long-term continuously at a temperature of 250°C and maintain short-term operation of 30 minutes in extreme conditions of 1000°C. BTTZ mineral cables have a high current capacity, a small outside diameter, high mechanical resistance and long service life, generally without the need for a separate grounding conductor.
