Belle–ACTIFOAM

ACTIFOAM

ACTIFOAM is used to fill any cavities or gaps in constructions. In case of fire, the cavity will be totally filled with the expanding rubber, offering a perfect fire seal for a very long duration.

ACTIFOAM can also be used for other sealing purposes. An advantage is that ACTIFOAM does not absorb water. Due to the closed cell structure, the rubber has good thermal insulation properties.

Installation Instruction

ACTIFOAM multi-cable

Transit sealing system is available as ACTIFOAM filler sheets and ACTIFOAM slit filler sheets. The oxygen index of ACTIFOAM is 40% (>30% is flame retardant).

An advantage of the ACTIFOAM material is that is does not absorb water. Tested at 2.5 bar water pressure during 24 hours. The K value at 10 °C according to NEN-EN 12667 is 12.3 mk/W.

The density of the foam rubber at 23 °C is between 0.35 and 0.4 g/cm3, in accordance with ISO 2781. Compression set of the foam rubber is 14% which stands for a good “memory”. Good weathering, UV and ozone resistance. Temperature range from -15 °C to +70 °C.

Typical application areas are:

  • fire resistant ducting of cables (cavity seals)
  • fire resistant ducting of busbar systems (busbar cavity seals)
  • fire resistant ducting of cables and/or cable trays through wall and floor penetrations (FIRSTO Firestop)
  • temporary fire resistant sealing of penetration openings during construction work (temporary seals)
  • fire resistant sealing of doors and hatches
  • fire resistant and thermal protection of installations

-40°C to +180°C
