Application
Type 1224 "FR" is the ideal
all-plastic instrument tubing bundle for installations where flame spread and
smoke generation must be controlled. In case of fire, Type 1224 "FR" will not
propagate fire.
Flame
Retardant (FR) Materials
Tubing contained within
the Synflex 1224 "FR" bundle is manufactured to the same material specifications
as Synflex 1219 "FR" single line tubing. In addition to longevity tests such as
heat aging, ultraviolet light protection and stress crack resistance, bundles
are tested for fire safety properties such as flame-spread, smoke generation and
off-gassing. Type 1224 "FR" is manufactured from a proprietary flame retardant
polyethylene compound that has a UL 94-V2 flammability classification.
Tube
Identification
Number-coded tubes
eliminate costly guesswork in hookup and help coordinate bundle installation.
Low
Initial and Installed Cost
Since Type 1224 "FR" has been
designed with fire safety in mind, it may be considered for applications
replacing expensive metallic or exotic plastic tubing. And, as with all Synflex
bundles, many tubes are installed at one time, saving installation time and
labor costs.
