Note

  • For optimum reliability, wait 24 hours or longer after installation before exposing the cables/pipes to strain or pressure.
  • Cables/pipes shall be parallel to the frame.
  • Cable/pipe with a considerable weight needs to be supported to prevent damage or subsidence to the seal.
  • Approvals or certificates may include amendments or limitations related to this application.
  • A module with core is spare capacity.
  • Placing spare capacity modules close to the wedge is recommended.
  • The latest version of this and related documents such as translations, are found at roxtec.com.
  • Partially installed openings shall be compressed if left unattended.

After installation inspection

  • Are all modules secured by stayplates?
  • Are the wedge screws tightened and the wedge clip attached?
  • Is there visible protruding lubricant?
  • Are there stayplates between every module row?
  • Is the wedge correctly oriented ?
  • Is the combined height of modules correct according to frame packing height?

Installation

  1. Clean the aperture.
    Installation

  2. Lubricate the sealing surfaces of the frame. Lubricate the corners thoroughly
    Installation

  3. Achieve a 0.1-1.0 mm (A) gap between the two module halves when held against the cable/pipe.
    Installation

  4. Adapt the modules by peeling off layers.
    Installation

  5. The number of layers may not differ (A) by more than one between the corresponding module halves.

  7. Lubricate the sealing surfaces of any spare module. Do not removethe core.
    Installation

  8. Lubricate solid modules on the sealing surfaces.
    Installation

  9. Measure your frame height (H). This decides your packing height (h).
    Installation

  10. The combined height of the modules must correspond to the packing height (h). Consider your packing
    plan.
    Installation
    S= frame size.
    w= frame width.

  11. Insert a module half.
    Installation

  12. Insert a cable.
    Installation

  13. Cables shall go parallel to the frame.
    Installation
