Polymer insulated fire-rated twisted pair<br />
cable for protection of critical fire alarm<br />
circuits.<br />
<strong>Raychem</strong> <strong>CI</strong> is a 2-hour fire-rated fire alarm<br />
cable. When installed in accordance with<br />
the requirements of the relevant U.S. and<br />
Canadian codes, <strong>Raychem</strong> <strong>CI</strong> meets the<br />
survivability requirements for fire alarm circuits<br />
as outlined in the National Fire Alarm<br />
Code (NFPA 72), Article 760 of the National<br />
Electrical Code (NFPA 70) and the Canadian<br />
National Building Code. It meets all the<br />
electrical and fire-resistive requirements of<br />
NFPA 502 and NFPA 130.<br />
<strong>Raychem</strong> <strong>CI</strong> fire alarm cables are 2-hour<br />
fire-rated to UL 2196 (and ULC S139 when<br />
installed in conduit). If installing <strong>CI</strong> in conduit,<br />
install in accordance with the details<br />
described in Electrical Circuit Protective<br />

2-hour fire-rated, polymer insulated,<br />
fire alarm cable<br />
Applications include the main trunk or<br />
“backbone” of multiplex alarm systems in<br />
high-rise buildings and institutions, and<br />
from each data-gathering panel to the point<br />
they enter the notification zone being<br />
served.<br />
<strong>Raychem</strong> <strong>CI</strong> is ideal for:<br />
• High-rise buildings, for fire alarm and<br />
voice communication systems.<br />
• Hospitals and other institutions where<br />
mobility is limited, for emergency<br />
communication systems.<br />
• Tunnels and subways, for the emergency<br />
voice communication system.<br />
• Airports, stadiums, hotels, banks, etc.<br />

Cable Construction<br />
Conductors Annealed solid copper, designed to ensure tensile strength under fire conditions. Class “B”<br />
stranded conductor is also available. Contact Tyco <strong>Thermal</strong> <strong>Controls</strong> for more information.<br />
Insulation Conductors are insulated with a 35 mil layer of thermoset low-smoke zero-halogen silicone<br />
rubber.<br />
Circuit identification Conductor insulation is printed with “1-Black” and “2-Red”, or color coded black and red.<br />
Shielded construction Conductors are twisted together along with a flexible stranded bare copper drain<br />
wire. This assembly is helically wrapped with a laminated copper/polyester foil tape in<br />
continuous contact with the drain wire.<br />
Unshielded construction Conductors are twisted together with a helically applied polyester binder tape.<br />
Jacket The shielded cable core is covered with an extruded layer of red flame-retardant, low-smoke,<br />
zero-halogen polyolefin.<br />
Cable identification Printed on outer jacket with sequential footage markers.<br />
