Moisture-proof sealing of cable trays

Moisture-proof sealing of cable trays

Ordinary carbon steel plate cable trays should adopt hot-dip galvanizing + epoxy powder coating (zinc layer thickness ≥65μm, epoxy coating thickness ≥80μm), forming a dual barrier of "metal zinc sacrificial layer + organic anti-corrosion layer" to prevent water vapor from coming. Moisture-proof sealing treatment should be centered on "blocking the path of water vapor intrusion + draining internal water accumulation + enhancing the material's impermeability", and run through the entire process of selection, installation and maintenance. By maintaining dry cable trays and preventing water accumulation, the integrity of cable. A better alternative to link-type seals, the SLIPSIL Plugs utilize a proprietary self-compression design, and have no bolts, nuts or metallic parts that. WSP weatherstops are designed to seal penetrations of any type in walls or floors by cable tray, cable conduit, pipe and/or bus duct. The WSP system utilizes a powder coated or galvanized steel frame that encompasses the entire tray or duct at the point of penetration. our solutions are easy to use and help you ensure safety, efficiency and operational reliability through all phases of your construction project.
