Introduction

In the realm of high-containment laboratories, such as P3 and P4 labs, maintaining a secure and leak-proof environment is crucial. The Vacu-Pass Cord and Cable Port by QUALIA is a specialized system designed to ensure the safe passage of cables and pipes through lab walls. Here, we delve into the features, types, and installation details of this innovative product.

Product Features (PF)

Circular Penetration System

• Designed for composite structures, this system accommodates multiple cables or conduits through a round opening.

Material Composition

• Includes a durable stainless steel protective ring, a flexible compression block, and a robust stainless steel pressing plate. These components work together to guarantee an airtight seal.

Versatile Fit

• Compatible with various sizes of cables and conduits, allowing for the creation of extra capacity as needed.

Waterproof Sealing

• Achieved through adjustable-diameter EPDM rubber sealing rings tailored to the cable’s diameter. This is done by peeling away excess rubber layers.

Installation

• Modules are inserted flat into the sealing component after compressing the opening against the cables with a maximum gap of 2MM, then secured with a split-type sleeve.

Sealing Performance

• After tightening the cables, hex screws in the pressure unit are tightened to compress the rubber expansion, ensuring a leakage-proof seal.
