In the present-day construction, electrical and communication cables have become just as important as they contribute to safety and functionality. Article 3 of the EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) — EN 50575:2014+A1:2016 — states that in European buildings, every cable ought to have fire reaction and performance characteristics, which are strictly regulated. Zion Communication, as a professional fire cable manufacturer, has made CPR compliance a mandatory dynamics of the production and quality assurance strategies, from plans to delivery, so that each cable produced passes through designs that meet the highest safety standards.
Following are the steps of Zion Communication to conduct fire test and obtain certification.
Zion Communication is fully defined by the European cable fire performance testing standards and classification criteria, such as:
EN 50399: Flame, Heating, and Smoke, although other codes such as IEC 608522-2, which is entitled "Hartman Temperature", holds little weight.
EN 61034: Measurement of smoke optical density
EN 60754: Acidity and time of waste release
Types of testing are third-party trials, which are conducted by Notified Bodies (NB) or Notified Laboratories (NL), in order to establish Euroclass ratings – examples can include B2ca s1 d0 a1, Cca s1b d1 a1, and Dca s2 d2 a2, etc. – that work along with the market.
Finally, Zion submits a Declaration of Performance (DoP) and CE label following the laboratory testing. External parties like installers, distributors, and regulatory authorities get the chance of functioning with full transparency.
For consistent compliance, Zion devised a strong Factory Production Control (FPC) system dedicated to the purpose of harmonizing with EN 50575 Annex ZA.
These include:
Material Traceability of Raw Materials: A log of each batch of LSZH compound, copper, and insulation is taken to grant requirements fulfillment before extrusion.
In-Process Assessment: An instant check of the conductor’s resistance, insulation thickness, and concentricity at first takes place, to ensure up-to-standard quality.
Fire Simulation Testing is provided by flame testing of the in-house flames within chambers to confirm the reliability of the products beforehand official testing.
End-of-Line Testing: Between 100% of the cables' continuity and dielectric and marking checks.
The suspension of the tests took place — but not on the system, which continued monitoring accordingly.
Those Audits that we perform keep getting better and more accurate. Also, the FPC is not a one-time setup; it is a system with defined procedures regularly monitored and periodically improved. That way, all Zion cables are able to pass through the same performance test as the tested sample.
An effective way of making a CPR-compliant product is by commissioning External audits by the Notified Bodies of compliance.
These audits include:
Random sampling of manufacturing lot batches for retest
Articulations of All of Manufacture and Quality documents
Verification of Calibration, Traceability, and Labeling Systems
Thanks to this dual system, cables that were initially tested but failed to meet any one of the 16 Safety Performance Levels are returned to the factory, where they are tested again. The safety performance levels on every quarter of the cables leaving the factory are still high even after several years. This fact creates an invariance of confidence to the European distributors and project partners.
Zion Communication’s CPR compliant product line features a broad selection and range of fire-rated and LSZH compliant cables for various building applications, such as:
Cable Type | Typical Euroclass | Applications |
Fire Alarm Cable | Cca s1 d0 a1 | Fire alarm and emergency systems |
Control & Signal Cable | Dca s2 d2 a2 | Industrial and commercial control circuits |
Data & Communication Cable | B2ca s1b d1 a1 | Data centers, hospitals, and public spaces |
Power Cable | Cca s1 d1 a1 | Building power distribution with enhanced safety |
Due to the desire of our company to keep pace with the new CPR systems, we are developing new insulation technologies and materials to meet the changes in the European Fire Safety Requirements.
Zion invests heavily in the creation of new formulations and testing systems of materials to remain on the verge of European standards. The current R&D directions are:
The goal of proving LSZH hard compounds with tolerance of very high temperature and shade recovery of emits smoke.
To furnish the delay, use hybrid shielding systems by increasing the electromagnetic compatibility short space and time period.
Automated FPC data integration that will link up result from the testing center directly to the production control desk.
Providing digital traceability for Europe’s electronics and DoP documents via QR coded labeling on its cables.
Through such initiatives, Zion (the company) not only aims to comply with regulations but also create new standards for durability, reliability, and environment-friendly.
For Zion Communication CPR compliance is much more than certification, is a culture of quality. From the materials selection to the final delivery of the cables, every aspect in the manufacturing process is thought of in order to assure that any installed cable in the European buildings is up to the requirements if they are exposed to the most demanding conditions.
Zion actively involves 3rd parties in cable manufacturing to comply with Fire Cable Standards. With the comprehensive Fire Production Control (FPC) systems, regular audits, and continual innovation, Zion remains one of the most reliable brands in the Fire Cable Standardization business and a partner for Europe’s safer tomorrow.
