Mineral insulated copper cables, also known as pyro cables have optimal operating performance under fire conditions. A LSF (Low Smoke and Fume) sheath encapsulates a copper conductor surrounded by magnesium dioxide insulation. May be used in a host of critical applications such as emergency lighting and fire alarm systems in challenging industrial applications.
