Fire fighters installed at Canary Wharf
Fire proof cable cleats manufactured by Ellis have been installed throughout the new BP4 Tower at Canary Wharf, London.
Designed specifically for installation with fire protection (FP) rated cables, the Phoenix cleats are manufactured in 316L stainless steel and are both fire proof and corrosion resistant. They were specified by Hilson Moran through Ellis’ UK distributor, ETS Cable Components and installed by electrical contractor, Phoenix ME Limited.
Working in conjunction with Exova Warringtonfire, BRE and ETS, Ellis initially developed its Phoenix range in 2011.Prior to launch the products underwent a wide range of tests, including exposure to fire, impact and water spray, all of which combined to ensure that the range offers fire protection to the same level as the cables it is installed to protect.
