Rise Rapid installation
The system offers the simplest way of installation while the very limited amount of components makes it easy to handle on site. RISE can be used for both vertical (ceiling) and horizontal (wall) conduit openings.
The sealing system allows cables to be ducted through conduit openings in a bent, curved or oblique way, without any adverse impact on the sealing performance.

Step 1
Clean the inside of the duct and cables, using an appropriate degreaser to remove the dirt, dust or oil to allow the FIWA sealant to bond. Cables can be ducted through the conduit opening in a random order. After ducting the cables, RISE insert sleeve is applied around each cable. Ensure the RISE insert sleeve is the relevant diameter of each cable.

Step 2
Fill the remaining free space with spare RISE insert sleeves, usually of sizes 27/19 and 18/12. Pack sleeves tightly then adjust to allow a 20mm gap from the front of the transit. |
 |
Step 3
Apply a 20mm layer of FIWA sealant to the face of the transit.
Begin in the most difficult area and work outwards. A slight overfill is recommended because some sealant will be pushed between and into the empty sleeves during finishing.

Step 4
Using a damp cloth; press the FIWA sealant down and between the cables. Ensure a sufficient amount is applied and that it makes good contact with all surfaces.

 |
Step 5
Using your hand (gloves are recommended), make sure enough sealant is between the cables and has been applied to the required depth and then smooth to finish.
Wet the hands to prevent the FIWA sealant sticking.

Step 7
Take a final check with a torch to ensure sufficient FIWA sealant has been applied between the cables. FIWA sealant layer cures on average at a rate of 2mm per day.
