Advantages and Applications of LSZH Cables

Table of Content [Hide]

    What is LSZH Cable?


    Low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) cables mainly use environmentally friendly materials as flame retardant fillers. When these materials reach a certain temperature during a fire, they absorb heat energy and release steam, which disrupts the combustion of escaping gases and forms a protective char layer. This process not only reduces the emission of toxic gases but also significantly lowers the density of smoke, thus improving visibility and enhancing chances of escape during a fire.


    Advantages of LSZH Cables


    Environmental Protection and Safety


    Compared to traditional PVC wires, LSZH cables do not release corrosive and toxic gases such as hydrogen chloride during a fire. This characteristic makes LSZH cables widely used in places requiring strict safety standards and environmental protection, such as hospitals, subways, airports, etc.


    High-Efficiency Flame Retardancy


    LSZH cables can not only effectively inhibit the spread of flames during a fire but also reduce the production of smoke, thereby protecting the lives of on-site personnel and the integrity of the equipment. This high-efficiency flame retardant performance makes LSZH cables the preferred choice in critical infrastructure such as high-rise buildings and data centers.


    Excellent Mechanical Properties


    LSZH cables provide superior electrical and mechanical performance compared to traditional cables without compromising flexibility, bending radius, and low-temperature performance. This makes LSZH cables not only outstanding in terms of safety but also convenient and reliable in installation and use in practical applications.


    LSZH Cable Applications


    Due to their superior safety and environmental performance, LSZH cables are widely used in many high-standard and high-demand application scenarios.


    High-End Residences


    LSZH cables produce very little smoke during a fire, making the escape route more visible and providing valuable escape time. The halogen-free nature prevents the release of toxic gases, ensuring the respiratory safety of you and your family. Additionally, LSZH cables maintain excellent electrical performance and physical stability at high temperatures, effectively preventing the spread of fire and providing a safer living experience.


    Subway and Railway Systems


    Since subway and railway systems are often located underground or in enclosed spaces with poor ventilation, the use of LSZH cables can significantly enhance safety during a fire, ensuring the safety of passengers and staff.


    Data Centers


    Data centers contain a large number of cables, which often operate in confined spaces. The release of toxic gases during a fire can cause severe damage to equipment. The use of LSZH cables in such environments not only protects the equipment but also reduces the impact of fires on the overall operation of the data center.


    Public Buildings


    In densely populated public buildings such as hospitals, schools, and shopping centers, the use of LSZH cables can effectively reduce smoke density during a fire and minimize the release of toxic gases, thereby protecting the safety of individuals.
