Fireplug ETC Electrical Trunking Closers are made using Firefly 102 intumescent and are totally enclosed in aluminium foil. The aluminium foil acts as protection against mechanical and chemical damage. Each Fireplug ETC has an adhesive strip.

Under the action of heat the intumescent in the Fireplug ETC expands sealing the trunking against the passage of hot gases and toxic fumes. The intumescent also absorbs the heat, this detracts from the passage of heat along the metal trunking.

Fireplug ETC Electrical Trunking Closer has been tested by TRADA to British Standard 476 part 20, on 14th May 1993, test No. IT360. two hours insulation and integrity was achieved. A full test report is available on request.

Fireplug ETC Electrical Trunking Closers are supplied ready to suit the size of trunking. Installation is carried out by simply removing the backing paper from the adhesive strip and pressing the adhesive firmly onto the inside of the trunking directly where it penetrates the wall. N.B. care must be taken to ensure that all the ETC's are adhered opposite to each other and that they are within the structure being breached by the trunking.

Under the action of heat, the PVC profile complete fire protection, softens as the intumescent core expands sealing the gap between the door and the door frame, through which fire and toxic gas could pass. The amount of pressure fireplug, developed by the expanding intumescent is dependent on the gap to be sealed. The wider the gap the lower the pressure.. The temperature at which Fireplug Intumescent strip fire protection materials, starts to activate is 120 - 160 oC. At this temperature no one would survive on the fireside of the door and in most cases the thermal shock would be fatal to anyone cable passthrough system suppliers, on the unexposed side opening the door. However, despite the requisite that the pressure developed by the expanding intumescent is sufficient to downlighter protection covers, keep the door closed it is possible to make the door open if required. Perfomance Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 has been tested by TRADA to British Standards ventilation grill manufacturer, BS476 Part 22, on April 20th 1993, test No. FR1687. The test criteria attained in Fireplug Intumescent Strip being acceptable for use in many leading manufacturers intumescent slabs, doors for 30/30 half hour doors, likewise Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 has been tested for use on 60/60 one hour doors. Application Fireplug IFS104 and IF104 is fitted into a groove nominally 10mm wide x 4mm deep. To aid fixing, although not essential, the strip can have a self adhesive backing, alternatives to this are gluing or securing with tacks. intumescent pillows, IFS104 and IF104 are fixed similarly but the groove is nominally 20mm wide x 4mm deep. The groove can be routed into either the door or into the door frame. The rout is along the head of the door and down the jamb. Intumescent is not required along the bottom as in a fire situation a negative pressure results making the air flow in the opposite cable tray blocks, direction to the top. Where the groove is masked by hinges, locks or other door ironmongery we recommend that FIreplug Intumescent Strip is used in conjunction with Fireplug Hinge and Lock Protection.
