Multi-CableTransit
The Multi-Cable Transit system is a proven fireproof, water and airtight method of passing cables from one compartment to another. It is simple, expedient and economical-giving much more protection than conventional stuffing tubes while drastically reducing time and installation cost.
POSITIVE VISUAL INSPECTION There is no hidden sealing of components or material. All units can be readily inspected, assuring, that a tight seal has been made against fire, water, air, dust, etc.
Applications:
Watertight, airtight, fireproof bulkhead and deck penetrations Weather deck penetrations Electrical equipment penetrations Fire and explosion-proofing of critical areas Thermal barrier for all penetrations Sound and vibration-free entries for cables and pipes

x COMPRESSION BOLT When tightened, seats the Compression Plate farther down into the transit frame.
b COMPRESSION PLATE Seats and compresses the Insert Blocks so that the End Packing can be inserted in the transit frame.
c END PACKING-STANDARD Compresses the Insert Blocks, creating a complete seal against fire, water, air, etc.
n STAY PLATE Stay Plates are normally placed between every other row of Insert Blocks keeping them positioned in the transit frame.
v END PACKING-SPECIAL Used when a transit frame can be packed from one side only. Component Materials
Transit Frames are fabricated either of steel, aluminum, or steel alloys. Compression Plates are steel or aluminum castings. Compression Bolts are available in stainless steel or galvanizes. Stay Plates are made of steel or aluminum. Insert Blocks and End Packings are made from a specially formulated fire-proof elastomer.
m GROOVED INSERT BLOCKS Twin half blocks of specially formulated elastomer with a centered semi-circular groove. When matched around a cable, these half blocks form a single block with a tight fit. Insert blocks are available in 7 basic module sizes accommodating an extensive range of cable sizes from 4mm to 100mm. , SPARE INSERT BLOCKS These solid blocks of elastomer are used to fill voids or to allow for the addition of cables at a future date. They are available in two sizes, 20/0 and 30/0. They may be used in any combination to match the six Grooved Insert Block sizes.
FILL-IN INSERT BLOCKS These blocks fill in spaces caused by the presence of different-sized blocks in the same row or can be used to increase the pressure in the Transit Frame when exceptionally soft cables are employed. Serrations allow them to be sliced off to desired length.

INSERT BLOCKS
FOR ARMORED CABLE It is recommended that Sealer be applied in the grooves of each block to seal the space between the armor and cable sheath. INSERT BLOCK LUBRICANT Insert Block Lubricant is used when packing Multi-Cable Transits. It allows the blocks to slide easily over each other when packing and compressing them around cables.

Installation of Multi-Cable Transit is quick, easy, and economical. The basic steps are described below:
1. Empty Frames are cast into or surface mounted to walls or floors by conventional construction methods. Cables, conduit, or pipe are run according to standard design criteria. 4. Compression plate is inserted and pressed against top end of frame before packing last row of TecronTM modules.
2. Preformed TecronTM elastomer modules are inserted around each cable, conduit, or pipe.
5. When the last row has been packed the compression bolt is tightned until there is space enough to put in the end packing

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Weld pipe sleeve to bulkhead or deck. 2. Insert Multi-Plugs using tallow. (Plugs are tapered. Insert initially until plug is snug in sleeve.) 3. Cables are pulled through opening (Figure 1). 4. After cable has been pulled, insert blocks are lubricated with tallow. (Provided with plugs.)(Figure 2). 5. Blocks are placed in position (FIgure 3) 6. Drive plug and insert blocks fully into sleeve. 7. Nuts are alternately tightened until the Multi-Plug is secure in the sleeve (Figure 4).
