EXANE® VITALink MC Transit is an armoured power cable with a two-hour fire rating.
A low smoke zero halogen jacket surrounds corrugated welded copper armour and Fire-Roc insulation to give the annealed copper wire maximum protection.
VITALink is a multi core self-contained cable which is easy to install – no cutting, deburring, no bending or wire pulling is needed, it fits directly from the reel without needing any special equipment. It’s ideal for use in ventilation, lighting and communications circuits, and available as a VFD cable with segmented grounds.
Rated 90°C for normal operation, 130°C for emergency overload conditions and 250°C for short circuit conditions.
Simple to terminate with commercially available brass or stainless steel MC connectors, and you can use conventional tools for terminating.
