Fireproof Cable Tray Specifications and Models Table

Fireproof cable trays are designed to protect electrical cables from fire, combining fire-resistant materials, structural reinforcement, and ventilation, with models offering 30–90 minutes of fire resistance depending on design and application.

Key Specifications

Materials and Construction

• Daken Fire-Resistant Cable Tray (DFCT): Uses an epoxy-based intumescent fire protection system with internal metal reinforcement plates and ventilation grilles, forming a dense insulating char under high temperatures to reduce heat transfer and enhance structural stability .
• Auyin Fire-Resistant Cable Tray: Core layer made of non-combustible fire-resistant boards, 5–12 mm thick, providing low thermal conductivity and flame protection .
• FireMaster® Cable Tray Wrap: Uses FireMaster® Marine Plus blanket fully encapsulated in aluminum foil, wrapped around trays with steel banding straps for 30 minutes hydrocarbon fire protection .
• Cablofil Cable Basket: Designed for low and high voltage cables, tested to DIN 4102-12 standard for 30, 60, and 90 minutes at temperatures up to 1000°C . Fire Resistance Ratings
• Fire resistance ranges from 30 minutes to 90 minutes, depending on the system and testing standard.
• Some trays, like Auyin's, achieve N1 rating (60 minutes) .
• Cablofil trays are tested under stringent German DIN 4102-12 standards for high-temperature fire scenarios . Load-Bearing and Structural Features
• Internal metal reinforcement ensures long-span stability and prevents deformation or fracture under load .
• High-strength materials enhance structural stability and allow installation in demanding environments such as nuclear power facilities .
• Arc-shaped trays provide smooth cable transitions, reducing stress on cables and improving aesthetics in curved installations . Applications
• Suitable for power infrastructure, oil and gas, petrochemical, rail, utilities, and high-risk fire environments .
• FireMaster® wraps are specifically designed for instrument control cables, allowing safe operation during fire for process shutdown .
• Arc-shaped and aesthetically designed trays are ideal for stadiums, theaters, and modern architectural spaces . Installation Features
• Factory-prefabricated trays reduce on-site cutting and welding, improving installation efficiency by over 30% .
• FireMaster® wraps require steel banding at 150 mm centers and overlapping joints of 50–75 mm for secure coverage .
• Cablofil recommends compatible cable cleats to maintain fireproof integrity . Color and Customization
• Some models, like Auyin, offer color customization (black, white, gray, red, yellow, green) to match architectural or safety requirements .
