Phillips quickly sought council with the project’s Construction Manager, Chris Stump of Broken Arrow Communications (Carlsbad, CA) to develop a solution for cable trunking the application with Metal & Cable Corp., Inc. (Twinsburg, OH); who had expertise in non-invasive magnetic design configurations.

The ensuing invention was cable duct the patent-pending Magnemount Cable/Cable Tray Holding System that presented a non-penetrating option to the welding and epoxy attachment methods that were delaying the project.

Designed to withstand winds up to 150 mph, the Magnemount system presented OMWD with a high-capacity magnetic solution to securely carry the cables and trays across and down the curvatures of the steel water tank.

Twinsburg, OH−When the Olivenhain Municipal Water District (OMWD; Encinitas, CA) recently mandated a rehabilitative painting of its massive 10 million gallon/300 foot diameter potable water tank (SAN-227-A Black Mountain Norte), it gave advance notice of ‘removal/reinstallation’ to the multitude of cell phone companies that used the tank as a telecommunications hub for their antennas and cable trays.

Since draining was required of the tank’s contents prior to epoxy coating and painting of its interior/exterior steel, the cable trays for the transmission lines had to be removed prior to the process. The request stated that this was required and essential in order cable trunking to not adversely affect the tank’s protective coatings and seals.

The OMWD, which covers 48 square miles of North San Diego County and serves a population of approximately 68,000 residents, received delayed response cable duct and coordination with the carriers to reinstall the equipment

New Firecap Electrical Trunking Fire Sleeves are designed to prevent cable duct the spread of fire through service penetrations made for electrical trunking. Firecap Pipe, Conduit and SWA Fire Sleeves are designed to stop the spread of fire through service penetrations made cable trunking, for pipes and conduits. Firecap Cable Tray Fire Sleeves are designed to prevent the spread of fire through service penetrations for cable trays, while new Firecap Ventilation Duct Fire Sleeves prevent the spread of fire through service penetrations made for the passage of ventilation ducting.

Meeting all the requirements of the UK Building Standards and IEE Regulations, the new Firecap sleeves are suitable for use with a wide range of metal and/or PVC electrical and plumbing products through a wide range of fire partition and floors, providing a two hour fire & smoke ‘stop’ through all common wall constructions and partitions. In their passive state they also provide cable channels a cold smoke seal as well as thermal and acoustic insulation.

Easy to install without any special tools or skills and highly cost effective, the new Firecap Sleeves can be easily retrofitted where required – even where there is access from only one side.

New Firecap Electrical Trunking Fire Sleeves are available to fit trunking sizes 50 x 50mm and 100 x 100mm and are also suited for use with non-electrical trunking.
