Fire Safe

The red Fire Safe plugs from PSI Sealing are comparable in operation to the standard EPDM plugs, but are made from a special, fire-retardant rubber. Fire retardant rubber. This makes the Fire Safe plug from PSI Sealing not only watertight and gas-tight, but also fire-retardant. The fire-retardant effect of the Fire Safe plug has been extensively tested and is certified by Lloyd's Register.

Fire delay of 60 minutes and A60 The Fire Safe plug has been tested for a fire delay of 60 minutes. In addition, a specific A60 fire resistance test was also conducted. The A-60 requirement, which occurs inter alia on board ships and offshore platforms, means that the temperature on the non-fire side of the wall in question must not have increased by more than 180 ° C after 60 minutes. This requirement is intended to prevent certain materials on the non-fire side from igniting due to the increased temperature. Application of Fire Safe plug in A-60 wall The Fire Safe plug from PSI Sealing, also shortened to FS, is suitable as a fire retardant lead-through plug for steel pipes through A-0, A-15, A-30 and A-60 steel walls and floors. For this purpose, the respective wall must be provided on both sides with A-60 classified insulation material, which at least covers the space 200 mm around the bushing. In addition, a pipe length of 300m must be symmetrically welded into the wall, where the pipe to be fed first and then, at both ends, a Fire Safe plug is placed. The pipe diameter of the pipe to be routed may be a maximum of 168 mm.
