KNX member FS Cables has added the KNX certified 1 pair cable to its KNX range.
Similar in construction to the standard 2 x 2 x 0.8mm, the one pair version features a single twisted solid conductor pair with a foil screen in a green low smoke halogen free (LSHF) jacket.
The cable benefits from being smaller, lighter and offers savings on both space and cost. It is also ideal as a jumper cable where its greater flexibility and reduced diameter make it more suitable than the 2 pair.
As a LSHF cable, it is also suitable for installations in public buildings where fire safety is paramount. KNX is an ideal solution for consultants, specifiers, designers, installers and end users as a flexible, user friendly and energy efficient system, particularly in the field of building controls.
With the increasing demand for ‘green’ buildings, KNX systems can contribute to significant energy savings over time. The control of heating, lighting and blinds can be aligned with external climate conditions or adjusted by an interface to pre-set levels.
All KNX certified equipment has been tested to meet this high standard and only equipment meeting this can carry the logo. This ensures the quality, reliability and guaranteed compatibility of all KNX devices and equipment.
The one pair cable complements the existing range of KNX certified cables stocked by FS Cables including the standard two pair cable in green or white, and duct grade or armoured versions for external applications.
