Specifications:

• Impervious Continuously Welded Armor - Control Cable
• 600 Volt UL Type MC-LS, CT Use, 90°
• Low Smoke Zero Halogen Jacket
• Copper Conductors

Application:
LifeGuard™ Low Smoke Zero Halogen* cable is for use in power, control and lighting circuits in a broad range of commercial and industrial applications. The impervious armor provides maximum conductor protection and prevents the entrance of water, gas and corrosive elements into the electrical core. LifeGuard™ cable is highly flame retardant, produces very small amounts of smoke when burned and contains no halogens. It is ideal for applications where a high degree of safety and equipment protection is required.

LifeGuard™ cable is UL listed, Type MC-LS per UL Standard 1569 and approved for installation indoors or outdoors, aerially, in conduits, ducts, cable trays and direct burial in circuits not exceeding 600 volts. It may be installed in temperatures as low as -30°C and used in NEC Class 1, Division 2 hazardous locations. It is UL approved for continuous operation at 90°C in wet and dry locations, 130°C for emergency overload conditions, and 250°C for short circuit conditions.

Impervious continuously welded and corrugated aluminum armor is recommended as an economical alternative to wire in conduit systems.
