PROMASTOP® CIS Cable Coating

General Description
PROMASTOP® CIS is a coating that is applied to power cables. When exposed to fire, PROMASTOP® CIS has a mild intumescent reaction which provides a insulating effect to the cables. This in turn ensures that the speed of the spread of flame across the surface of cables is dramatically reduced, and for some types of cable, the intumescent reaction is such that it can ensure that the cables remain functioning for a specified period of time. This is especially important for those cases where continuity of electrical power supply is of vital importance.

PROMASTOP® CIS can be used on single or bunched cables.

PROMASTOP® CIS is toxic-free and is a environmentally friendly fire resistant coating. It does not emit toxic fumes or substances during application, nor during exposure to fire. PROMASTOP® CIS does not emit any toxic or corrosive gases when exposed to fire; this is an important consideration on two grounds, firstly with regard to preservation of life, secondly by keeping corrosive gases to a minimum, it removes the detrimental effect the corrosive gases emitted during fire can have on elements of the building structure.

When correctly applied PROMASTOP® CIS has a smooth surface and is white in colour. It is possible to add universal colouring additives in order to obtain a range of pastel shades. PROMASTOP® CIS Topcoat should be used in those instances where the application is within abnormal or aggressive environment, where the humidity is likely to be high or areas where the coated cables are likely to be in contact with other elements that are subject to movement etc.

PROMASTOP® CIS is supplied in 12.5kg and 25kg buckets. Store in dry conditions. Shelf life 12 months in an unopened and properly sealed bucket.
