RISE NOFIRNO System

Pipe Sealing With DNV GL Approval

RISE NOFIRNO sleeves and sealant by CSD Systems are made from the highest grade silicone materials, and have a tested service life of over 20 years. Unlike some competitive systems, the RISE NOFIRNO system contains no cheap calcium silicate or mineral wool blankets, which can absorb moisture and cause corrosion of the penetration collar and pipes inside the collar. This problem is referred to as “Corrosion Under Insulation” (CUI).

The CSD NORFIRNO is a Single & Multi Pipe Penetration Sealing System composed of a steel sleeve (length 180 mm or 250 mm) welded or bolted to steel deck or bulkhead, NOFIRNO Filler Sleeves filling the open space between sleeve and pipe – one of the most adaptive systems for sealing straight and angled pipe penetrations and can even accommodate multiple pipe runs, significantly saving in space and weight.

The NOFIRNO system is Type Approved for the harshest ratings for A, H and Jet Fire Class, and is also approved for watertight, gas-tight, blast and shock applications.

RISE NOFIRNO System Features

Approved for harshest fire ratings for pipe penetrations (EN, A, H and Jet Fire class)
Allows substantial movement of the ducted pipes within the conduit
High pressure ratings – designed for gas and/or watertight penetrations
Prevents “Corrosion Under Insulation” (CUI)
Longest service life and best Total Cost of Ownership of any sealing system
NOFIRNO® rubber sleeves and sealant will remain stable and not be consumed by fire
Approved for any combination of cable and/or metallic, GRP or plastic pipes

RISE NOFIRNO

For insulated copper pipe penetration, RISE/ULTRA shell of thickness 2.5 mm shall cover the insulated pipes over a length of 210 mm.

For Multi-Mix Pipe, RISE/ULTRA strips/sleeves around the plastic pipes.

The penetration is sealed on both ends with a layer of 20 mm NOFIRNO Sealant.

Rise Nofirno Application/Limitation

See drawings Nos. N0009E Rev. 2 and N0011E Rev. 2
Approved A-0 to A-60 single and multi-pipe penetrations for steel/stainless steel pipes up to Ø168 mm and for Cu/CuNi pipes up to Ø108 mm.
Maximum sleeve size: Max. allowable surface area: 3000 cm2 (1000 mm x 300 mm).
See drawings Nos. N0018E Rev. 2 and N0020E Rev. 1
Approved A-0 multi-pipe penetrations for steel/stainless steel pipes up to Ø219 mm.
Maximum sleeve size: Max. allowable surface area: 1800 cm² (600 mm x 300 mm).
See drawings Nos. N0045E dated 04.06.12

Multi-Mix pipe + cable penetrations

Approved A-0 to A-60 penetrations for a mix of cables up to Ø105 mm (incl. CLX and LAN cables), steel/stainless steel pipes up to Ø168 mm, for Cu/CuNi pipes up to Ø108 mm and plastic pipes (PVC, PP, PPR, HDPE, PB, PVDF) up to Ø160 mm.

Maximum sleeve size: Max. allowable surface area: 3000cm² (1000 mm x 300 mm). See drawing No. N0015E Rev.2, N0016E Rev.2 and N0017E Rev. 2.

The installation of the pipe penetration is to be in accordance with the manufacturer installation manual and referenced drawings.

For A-0 divisions, no insulation is needed on the sleeves and the pipes.

Approved for watertight penetrations up to a design pressure of 1.66 bar. Approved for airtight penetrations up to a design pressure of 1.00 bar.

The penetration system is generally not to be used for penetrating boundaries of tanks.

When pipe penetrations is requested to be used in watertight bulkheads on passenger ships and Special

Purpose Ships (SPS), the pipe penetration system has to comply with the requirements given in SOLAS (2009) Ch. II-1 Reg. 13.2.3 c.f. IMO Res. MSC.429(98) Reg. 13.2.3.4. Pipe penetrations passing through watertight bulkheads are subject for separate examination.

Each product is to be supplied with its manual for installation/application and maintenance.

NOFIRNO is one of BEELE Engineering’s ‘rapid cable and pipe sealing systems’ for use on board ships, on offshore pipework installations, in building and construction and other environments where the safety of people and installations has to be guaranteed.
