28. EN 50264
Caledonian standard wall and medium wall rolling stock cables conform to EN 50264 for use in power cars(The corresponding French railway standard is NF F 63826), diesel-electric locomotives,
electric and diesel multiple units EMU / DMU, high- capacity rails, mono rail and light rail vehicles, sleeping cars and passenger coaches. FIREROL is a kind of widely used rolling stock cables.
Application:
- FIREROL wires combine the advantages of small size, lightweight, high oil resistance, halogen free, high mechanical properties. They are recommended for installation in railway vehicles
(locomotives, trains,trolleybuses...).
- A 120°C conductor temperature is allowed for a 20000 hours cumulative working time.The external sheath is mineral oil and fuel oil resistant, ozone and UV resistant.
Conductors:
Flexible stranded tinned copper class 5 according to IEC 60228 with optional separator tape. Conductor temperature+90 °C
Standard:
EN 50264-1: General requirements applicable to cables, including detailed requirement for the insulating and sheathing material
