Specification / technical data
Construction
The Soluflex cable floor system is constructed of a raised floor of
tiles and supports with integrated cabling and connection points for
telecoms, power and data
Materials
• The tiles are manufactured from pre-galvanised sheet steel in
accordance with BS EN 10326
• The supports are made of polypropylene. Inflammability class B2
according to DIN 4102
Weights and measures
• Dimensions of tiles : 225 x 225 mm
• 4 different heights : 37 mm, 60 mm, 90 mm, 120 mm
Other heights available on request (50, 70, 80 and 150 mm)
• Weight of the Soluflex cable floor system : approx. 20 kg per m

Safety
• Safety against short circuits : Soluflex is earthed (as long as 1 earthing
tile is installed per 100 m
2
)
• Fire resistance : due to its low plenum height Soluflex is
self-extinguishing
Tested according to BS EN 13501-1, class B(fl)S1-d0
Other characteristics
The Soluflex cable floor system feels extremely solid. Since the system
is not adjustable in height, it needs no later adjustment
The grid layout of the system means the cables are perfectly parallel,
and you can cross data cables at the required angle of 90°
n
TNO-fire
Fire propagation
Its low plenum height enables the cable floor system to be
self-extinguishing
NEN-EN 13501-1
B(fl) S1-d0
NEN 1775 :
A – Inflammability – complies with the class
T1 criteria for inflammability
B – Horizontal fire propagation : all heights
maximum horizontal fire propagation = 0 cm, which implies a
critical density of heat flow of more than 11 kW/m
2
Classification according to NEN 1775 : Class T1
NEN 6066 :
With (highest) heat flow supply of 50 kW/m
2
:
(highest) normative smoke density smaller than 0·5 m-1, which is very
little smoke production in case of fire
DIN 4102 :
Resistance to fire in accordance with DIN 4102 Class B1
n
Level floor
The sub-floor must be dry, clean and level,
suitable for laying carpet. If the floor is not level, it must be levelled
before you start to install the Soluflex cable floor system. Please
contact your floor specialist for professional advice
n
KEMA-certificate
Soluflex cable floor system has been
certified by KEMA and meets the
requirements for mechanical and
electrical safety
Earthing
The cable floor system is
automatically earthed, provided that
1 earthing tile is installed per 100
m
2
. Install an earthing tile every 14 m
length in gangways
