Sample of insulating materials are burned in a tubular oven and the gases emitted during combustion are detected and collected in order to determine the quantities of gases most frequently met with, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, halogen acids, sulphur dioxide, nitric oxide, etc. The quantities are then compared with concentration limits, in order to obtain a conventional toxicity index (normally 1.5). Smoke Corrosivity CEI 20-37 - IEC 60754 BS 6425 - EN 50267 This test allows estimation of corrosiveness against metals of products released when cables burn. Sample of non-metallic materials are burned in a tubular oven and the gases evolved during combustion are collected into wash bottles. The analysis of the solution contained in the bottles allows the quantity of corrosive gases to be determined. Corrosivity can be checked either through the amount of HCl evolved per gram of sample, or through ph and conductivity of test solution.

Fire Resistant Fibre Optic Cables According to -25, these cables are tested to withstand a fire up to 950 C for 3 hours. The constructions proposed contain up to 24 fibres (single tube) or 144 fibres (multiloose tube). These cables are used for data transmission, TVCC, process control when advantages given by optical fibres are required. Besides fire resistance, they ensure outstanding flame retardant property with a reduced quantity of smoke evolved during combustion. These cables are available both with singlemode (SM) and multimode fibres. 22
