Insulation
Okonite-FMR is Okonite's trade name for its heat, moisture, flame and chemical resistant, mechanically rugged ethylene-propylene insulating
compound.
The properties of Okonite-FMR insulation substantially enhance the well known features of ethylene-propylene rubber insulations.
Overall Jacket
Okosheath-(CP-TP) is a thermoplastic chlorinated polyethylene compound. This jacket has excellent resistance to moisture, ozone, oil and many
chemicals.
Applications
Okonite-FMR low voltage power and control cables are recommended for use in power generating plants, combined cycle power units, co-generation
plants and in substations; designed especially for critical circuits where continuity of service is of prime importance. These cables are
TC listed and meet UL requirements. As TC cable, they are permitted for use on power, lighting, control, and signal circuits; indoors
or outdoors; in cable trays, raceways, direct burial in the ground, or where supported in outdoor locations by a messenger; for Class
1 circuits as permitted by Article 725 of the NEC; and in cable trays in Class
I Division 2 hazardous locations in industrial establishments where the conditions of maintenance and
supervision assure that only qualified persons will service the installation.
