Sheath Color and Code Confirmation
Sheath colors listed in the catalog include red, white, orange, and more depending on the family. Several product notes say that if the cable uses a white outer sheath, the ZION code changes. The JE-H(St)H FE180-E30/E90 family lists orange sheath color in the construction block.
What to Send for Printing Approval
Send the required cable family, code or size table row, exact printing text, color, batch format, length marking preference, label requirements, carton requirements, package length, and any market-specific marking requirement.
FAQ
Is sheath printing optional?
The catalog lists standard printing examples and also notes customized printing on sheath. Confirm whether the project needs standard or customized text.
Why does marking matter for fire cable projects?
Marking supports identification, traceability, installation management, and later maintenance checks.
Should label and carton requirements be sent with the RFQ?
Yes. The catalog notes label and carton as customizable items, so they should be confirmed early if the project has special packaging or traceability requirements.
