When cable trays pass through walls or floors, seal openings using fire-rated penetration sealing materials. Do not modify or damage the tray coating or structure during use. 7 products are successfully used to protect cables in high-rise buildings, industrial buildings, and offshore facilities as well as in sensitive areas, such as hospitals, airports, production. AF BAGS are intumescent and ablative fireproof pillows certified under EN 1366-3 for sealing up to EI 240 of cable tray penetrations. Unlike a standard tray that only supports cables mechanically, a Fireproof Cable Tray uses fire-resistant coatings or specially engineered structures to improve its performance. FIRSTO firestops are designed to seal multi-cable and cable tray penetrations of fire-rated walls and floors. Working in inaccessible openings is often cumbersome. Seal cable penetrations with our modular firestop solutions, designed to create water-, smoke- and gas-tight barriers in energy and industry projects both onshore and offshore. A better alternative to link-type seals, the SLIPSIL Plugs utilize a proprietary self-compression design, and have no bolts, nuts or metallic parts that.
