In the event of a fire, alongside dense smoke, wires can emit toxic chemicals that pose risks to individuals, impeding firefighters’ ability to evacuate those in danger. CHIWAS Zero Halogen Flame Retardant (ZHFR) wires significantly reduce both smoke and harmful gas emissions in surrounding areas. For indoor applications, it is advisable to utilize ZHFR wires, while Flame Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS) wires are better suited for open space applications.
Electrolytic copper strands are drawn simultaneously in thin filaments to ensure uniformity in resistance, dimensions, and flexibility. These drawn strands are meticulously bunched using high-precision machinery, resulting in the formation of a circular conductor. This bundling technique effectively reduces the overall diameter, allowing for space savings in high-density wiring applications.
At the heart of Ultra Wires lies the highest purity Electrolytic Grade Copper, in stark contrast to the lower grade copper commonly utilized in standard cables, which often results in subpar conductivity. With conductivity exceeding 100% according to the International Annealed Copper Standard (IACS), our cables minimize energy losses, leading to reduced power bills.
