 FRLS CHARACTERISTICS

Offered cables shall meet the requirement of following

a) Oxygen index test on FRLS sheath as per ASTM D-2863 and min. oxygen index
shall be 29 at room temp.

b) Temp.index test on FRLS sheath as per ASTM D-2863 ( by extrapolation method) and
min. temperature index shall be 250 degC at oxygen index of 21.

c) Acid gas generation test on FRLS sheath as per IEC-60754(I) and max. acid gas
generation shall be 20% by weight.

d) Smoke generation test on FRLS sheath as per ASTM D-2843 and max. smoke density
rating shall be 60%

e) Flammability test on finished cables as per

IEC-332/1
IEEE-383
SS:4241475/88 Class F3 (applicable for cables having overall dia up to 35.0 mm only)

f) Rodent & Termite Repulsion Test shall be as under:

The test shall be carried out to note the presence of rodent & termite repelling chemical in
PVC compound. Normal procedure is that a few chippings of the PVC compound are slowly
ignited in a porcelain dish on crucible in a muffle furnace at about 600 deg. C. The resulting
ignited ash is boiled with a little ammonium acetate solution (10%). A drop of aqueous
sodium sulphide solution is placed on a thick filter paper and it is allowed to soak. The spot is
touched with a drop of above extract. A black spot indicates the presence of anti-termite &
rodent property.
