Description:

VITALink® RC90 is a 600V 2-hour fire rated cable listed to ULC S139 with hose stream. It is specifically designed to meet both the electrical and fireresistive cable requirements of NFPA 130 and NFPA 502 for emergency communications, emergency lighting & emergency ventilation. When installed per Systems FHIT7 120, 120A, and 60, plus the CEC, VITALink® RC90 meets code requirements for 2-hour Fire Rated Circuits, Electrical Circuit Integrity Systems, Survivability and Circuit Integrity. VITALink® RC90 Cables offer lowered cost, reliability and ease of installation advantages over MI cable and other methods of providing fire rated circuits. The equipment grounding copper armor is terminated with commercially available brass MC/RC connectors and the cable connections are made without the need for splicing or use of special tools. Compared to Mineral Insulated (MI) cable, VITALink® RC90 is not exposed to costly field expenses in preparing cable ends, special panel penetrations, additional flexible terminations, and the splicing of shorter lengths in longer runs. VITALink® RC90 is not susceptible to failures caused by moisture ingress through leaky seals or faulty storage. (VT03)
