BEELE ENGINEERING -
SAFETY, RELIABILITY, INVOLVEMENT

Every moment of the day, in every business and every situation,

the threat of fire is present. For over three decades, BEELE Engi-
neering has specialized in passive fire safety in the form of systems
which prevent the spread of fire, smoke, water and gases via cable
and pipe penetrations. With our superior sealing technologies, we
have become the undisputed Number One in this particular field.

It is BEELE Engineering’s philosophy that R&D exists to respond

to market demands. Only then can research and development ac-
tivities be classed as functional. Only then are innovative solutions
generated for problems that have current or near-term relevance.
Our policy is one of continuous active response to customers’ de-
mands, or to modified or new functional requirements. We listen, we
observe and we interpret, and so we arrive at new product develop-
ments and bold innovations.

BEELE Engineering has built up an enormous body of specialized

expertise and knowledge. Our company is the world market leader
in sealing systems for state-of-the-art shipbuilding applications as
well as civil and industrial applications. We do not follow trends, we
set them.

Development of new products and technologies, as well as pioneer-

ing know-how, are present in every fibre of our organization. We
are driven by passion for our specialization, and our customer in-
volvement drives us to exceed the boundaries of what is technically
feasible.

BEELE Engineering operates world-wide. From our agencies in

virtually every industrialized country, our support and services are
always somewhere nearby. We are there for you – also for on-site
advice or in-house demonstrations, instructions and support at your
location.

Our development, test and produc-

tion facilities are among the most
advanced in the world. The factory
is equipped with state of the art ma-
chines, which are tailor made to the
requirements of our company. We
work to a high-level ISO system, with
unmatched involvement. Continuous
investment in design technologies,
combined with highest quality poly-
mers, is our guarantee for the safety
of lives and equipment. That is why
BEELE Engineering is internationally
recognized by all relevant certification

RISE® MULTI-CABLE TRANSIT

SEALING SYSTEM
BEELE Engineering is dedicated to fire safety. In a fire, it is of utmost importance that the cable and pipe
penetration seals stop the spread of fire and smoke to adjacent areas. However, the degree of mainte-
nance in installations is a determining factor. Sealing systems might not be properly resealed after
maintenance work, or might be damaged. To address this problem, BEELE Engineering has developed
the ACTIFIRE® technology. The objective is to activate the sealing system under fire load so that the
system is “self-correcting” when exposed the fire. Small openings are immediately closed off.

From the above it will be obvious that sealing systems This means that a cable could be removed from the tran-

RISE® MULTI-CABLE TRANSIT

SEALING SYSTEM
The ACTIFIRE® technology ensures
that, during a fire, the rubbers and
sealants used for the sealing system will
produce such an amount of fire retardant
material that major deformations or
displacements can easily be followed.
As a result, the penetration will remain
fire-tight. The higher the temperature,
the more fire retardant material will
be produced. Because of this “active
material production”, in the event of a
fire an elevated pressure will be formed
inside the penetration. The result is
that a virtually solid rubber mass forms
inside the penetration, with which its
fire resistant and sealing capacity is
effortlessly maintained. In addition,
“excess” new material produced is
forced out of the penetration at the
exposed side (together with all the
softened plastic materials of the cable
sheaths). In this way the penetration is
effectively lengthened. Openings which
are left by the softening and combustion
of cable sheathings are easily filled up.

RISE® multi-cable penetrations are

the best alternative for the casting com-
pounds, mineral wool and block systems
used in fire-rated/watertight bulkheads
and decks. RISE® multi-cable penetra-
tions offer a most simple way of installa-
tion. The very limited amount of different
parts makes this system easy to handle
on site. Use is made of rubber inserts
(placed around the cables) and filler
sleeves. No precise positioning of the
cables in the transit needed.
The RISE® sealing system allows
cables to be ducted through conduit
openings in a bent, curved or oblique
way without any adverse impact on
sealing performance.
The RISE® sealing system gives easy
access to add or remove cables in a
later stage without the necessity to
disassemble the whole penetration or
replace all existing material.
Just cut away a piece of the FIWA® layer
at both sides of the penetration, pull the
cable through and refill the opening in
the sealant layer. It is that simple!

To prove the outstanding quality and safety of the RISE® cable and pipe penetrations, the basic
materials (FIWA® sealant and RISE® rubber) have been subjected to additional tests.
These tests have been carried out by official institutes: Warrington Fire Research and RAPRA
Technologies in the United Kingdom, the Fire Technology Institute of the University of Ghent in
Belgium and TNO Laboratories in The Netherlands.
The RISE® cable and pipe penetrations have also been subjected to additional tests at official
institutes such as DELTA Danish Electronics, Light and Acoustics Testing in Denmark, QinetiQ
in England, South West Research Institute in USA and in-house under survey of the classification
societies. To name some: sound tests, shock and vibration tests, rapid temperature rise tests,
leak tests after a one hour fire test, EMC tests, A-0 test without insulation, dynamic cycling test,
several configurations on watertightness and a helium gas leak test.
