If already installed, an open frame is needed e.g. HCOX2 or HMOX2.
Note: for multiple aperture frames, the removable end can be either horizontal or vertical or both depending on the site requirements.
However, for frames that are HCOX8+8+8×3 for example, the central aperture cannot accommodate existing cables. The removable ends must be clearly identified when placing an order.
The blank filler blocks are available in all module sizes and must be used to fill up the transit aperture.
The application is for water or gas where the pressure is expected to be in excess of 3.5 bar. Is the specification the same?
No – applications in excess of 3.5 bar pressure require the following:
1. Heavy duty stayplates must be used – code 931P.
2. An additional 120 x 60 x 5mm packing strip (HF50) must be installed to increase compression beyond normal requirement.
1. Hole dimensions need to be correctly sized – see frame dimension chart in Transit manual.
Note that if the aperture is to be turned inwards an additional 6mm is to be added to both dimensions to take into account the radius curve of the weld.
2. Hawke intumescent mastic is required to seal between the frame flange and the brick/concrete face. See Transit manual for application details.
One 330ml tube of mastic is sufficient to seal 3 individual frames or a multiple frame of up to 4 apertures.
Polystyrene moulds are available to maintain the aperture. Details of wall/floor thickness needed to provide correct size.
A backing plate can be provided. The thickness of wall/floor is needed to provide correct size.
The HRST / HRTO circular frames are designed to fit into 30mm, 40mm, 50mm, 70mm, 100mm, 125mm, 150mm and 200mm I/D pipes – See transit manual for tolerance details.
It should be noted that when HRST / HRTOs are used in conjunction with plastic piping the product is converted to an environmental gas water seal only.
The marine frames are made from 10mm steel bar and are typically welded into steel bulkheads and deckheads. There are different types of marine frames available.
The civil frames are made from 60 x 60 x 6 mm angle which provides a 60mm flange and are either cast into or bolted onto concrete, blockwork or brick walls and floors. Both types are available in multiple apertures.
Choose the correct frame type e.g HMX for marine, HCX for civil.
Frames are available as standard items in mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium.
Note:
A Frame required to suit a specific number of cables/pipes. The following information on cables/pipes is needed:
HRST / HRTO’s (Hawke Round Transits) are a series of circular rubber components, each of which has a central core manufactured to accommodate one or more cables secured by the installation of corresponding Hawke Transit System Insert blocks.
The unit is fitted with compression plates at front and back. (Compression (front & back) plates are available in mild steel as standard or stainless steel for corrosive environments. They are not available in Aluminium).
There are four standard aperture sizes and each transit frame is made up of one or more apertures. The four standard sizes are as follow:
Size 2 60mm x 120mm installation area.
Size 4 – 120mm x 120mm installation area.
Size 6 – 180mm x 120mm installation area.n
Size 8 – 240mm x 120mm installation area.
Each aperture has a further area of 40mm x 120mm which is use purely to accommodate the installation of the compression system.
For items in excess of 100mm O/D the HCLX civil frames are available and will seal items up to 330mm O/D – see Transit manual.
Note: HCLX frames are designed for a single penetrating item only and no stayplates are needed or available for this type of frame.
This depends on the overall diameter of the cable or pipe. The tolerant blocks are supplied in pairs. The table in the transit manual lists the module, block sizes and colour coding for items ranging from 3mm to 100mm.
Colour coding is supplied to ensure that the correct cable insert block has been selected and installed.
The Hawke colour coding is a proven inspection aid. Invaluable in verification of correct installation.
The Stayplate ensures that each complete row of filler/insert blocks is held in position during assembly and cannot be dislodged by weight of cable.
A stayplate is located above each complete evenly packed row of filler/insert blocks and once systems is under compression the stayplate retains the filler/insert blocks when under force from water/blast pressure.
Please note it is not necessary to insert a stayplate on the final row of filler/insert blocks.
Yes, using the HRST round transits. It is also possible using the HCLX rectangular frames. In this case, the blocks will be customized to adapt to each type of sealing.
Plastic pipes can be sealed within a transit seal when the assembly is used as an environmental seal, offering protection against gases and liquids at pressure also acting as a barrier against sound and pests. Special assemblies are available that offer a level of fire resistance, please contact HTS for further information.
The Hawke system is fully inspectable due to:
The tolerant blocks seal a range of cable sizes with no modification needed by the installer. The blocks are colour coded to ensure the correct halves are put together.
The pins in the endpacker ensure that the system is correctly compressed and the measurement of the end packer exposed thread to 10mm ensures that the endpacker has been tightened correctly ensuring the endpacker itself is completely sealed.
Yes, consult with our sales department to design a solution that best suits your needs.
