Installation for Multi-Cable and Pipe Sealing Systems

STEP 1
Thoroughly clean the inside of the duct and cables, use an approved degreaser to remove the dirt, dust or oil to allow the FIWA (or Nofirno) sealant to bond. Apply a RISE insert sleeve of the relevant diameter around each cable to ensure all cables are separated.
STEP 2
Fill the remaining free space with spare RISE insert sleeves, usually of sizes 27/19 and 18/12. Pack sleeves tightly, then adjust to allow a 20mm gap from the front of the transit.
STEP 3
Apply a 20mm layer of sealant to the face of the transit. Begin in the most difficult area and work outwards. A slight overfill is recommended. ensure sealant is applied between all cables.
STEP 4
Using a damp cloth, press the sealant down and between the cables. Ensure a sufficient amount is applied and it makes good contact with all surfaces.
STEP 5
Using your hand (nitrile gloves are recommended), make sure enough sealant is between the cables and has been applied to the required depth and then smooth to finish. Wet the hands to prevent the sealant sticking.
STEP 6
Take a final check with a torch to ensure sufficient sealant has been applied between the cables. Sealant layer cures on average at a rate of 2mm per day.

RISE Duct Seal - adding a cable
Installation instructions to add extra cables.

STEP 1
Adding new cables is a simple process. Cut away the sealant layer at both sides of the penetration using a plastic knife or hollow punch. A hole slightly larger than the new cable should be made. A tapering shape creates a foundation for the later sealant application.
STEP 2
If the empty filler sleeves do not fit the cable to be ducted, a number of these insert sleeves must be removed from the penetration. Install a fitting insert sleeve (with some filler sleeves if necessary) in the open space in the penetration.
STEP 3
Pull the new cable through one of the empty filler sleeves. Use an approved degreaser to ensure the cable sheath is clean and free from dirt, dust or oil to ensure the sealant will bond to the cable.
STEP 4
Refill the openings cut in the sealant layer at both sides of the penetration with sufficient sealant. A slight overfill is required.
STEP 5
Using a damp cloth press the sealant down around the new cable. Ensure a sufficient amount of sealant is applied and it makes good contact with all surfaces.
STEP 6
Using your hand (nitrile gloves are recommended) smooth to finish. Wet the hands to prevent the sealant sticking.
