PFP Pipe Closer - 90mm, Depth 50mm

About the PFP Pipe Closer Product

PFP Pipe Closers are designed to maintain the fire resistance of fire rated walls and floors where these are breached by continuous plastic pipes. The PFP Pipe Closer can be used in gypsum, masonry and concrete walls and with concrete floors.

Each pipe collar consists of a Red coated circular steel shell that splits in two to fit around the service penetrations by means of a simple slide-lock system. The steel shell contains a graphite based reactive material which reacts when exposed to heat closing the openings left by the softening plastic pipe in fire.

When testing pipes, one can choose not to cap (or close) the pipe, or cap the pipe inside the furnace, or outside the furnace, or on both sides. The configuration chosen depends on the intended application of the pipe and/or the installation environment. The code defining if a pipe is capped is stated after the fire classification. For instance EI 60 C/U which means the pipe was capped inside the furnace, and uncapped outside the furnace. The test configuration defines the approvals possible.

Competency

It is vital that those entrusted to design or install a fire stopping product have the necessary levels of competence to undertake the task professionally and thoroughly. The level of competency required will be commensurate with the expected complexity of the building. All designers must eliminate, reduce or control foreseeable risks that may arise during installation, construction or maintenance when preparing or modifying designs. Clients should ensure that the principal designer and principal contractor carry out their duties under CDM regulations. The ASFP foundation course in passive fire protection provides essential knowledge as part of demonstrating competency and understanding in this key fire protection specialism.
