Fire barriers can have different standards:
The lowest standard “E”
Barrier against flames, preventing fissure formation. "E45", for example, means that the specimen can withstand the test for 45 minutes.
The highest standard “EI”
Barrier against flames, preventing fissure formation and thermal insulation, which means that the temperature on the side facing away from the fire must not exceed 392° F (180° K above room temperature). "EI30", for example, means that the specimen can withstand the test for 30 minutes.
Based on the standards EN 45545-3 and EN 1363-1 icotek cable entry systems have been tested on "E" and "EI" in vertical alignment using mounted IFPS fire penetration seals. All tested products have been successfully certified using only one layer of fire penetration seals. Furthermore, conventional cables instead of fire-resistant railway cables have been used for the testing.
