A combination seal connects a filter or an equipment component to a base. The combination seal includes a seal material and flecks or particles made of intumescent material interspersed within the seal material. The flecks or particles of intumescent material undergo a chemical change when exposed to flames or heat and expand to maintain seal effectiveness and longevity without compromise.

Process for fire resistant protection of the technical elements of a building by means of one or more prefabricated isolation blocks, enabling pre-isolation of a vacant space in the structure of a building. The block comprises an easily modelled fire resistant material and is disposed before pouring the concrete of the structure of the building. The prefabricated block is then opened up in such a manner as to install the technical elements having to be protected from fire.

A conduit fitting is provided herein. The conduit fitting may be configured to couple to an electrical mechanical tubing (EMT) often used in a fire suppression system. The conduit fitting may include a first cylindrical section and a second conical section. The first cylindrical section and the second conical section can both include a slit extending partially through the conduit fitting.

A utility pole system that provides for easy temperature inspection of the fiberglass reinforced plastic utility pole. The system may include utility pole and a sleeve arranged around the pole, and a temperature sensor positioned underneath the sleeve.

This invention relates to a fire collar (10) that includes a housing (11) having a bore that includes a first opening (13) and a second opening (18), said second opening being spaced from said first opening by at least one side wall (12), and wherein the fire collar further includes mounting means (14) for mounting said housing to a supporting structure, said mounting means being located adjacent said first opening. The fire collar also includes a layer of intumescent material (46) contained within the bore, adjacent the first opening, and supported in said bore adjacent the side wall. The fire collar also includes one or more torsion springs (48) which are operatively connected to the housing and wherein each spring includes a first leg (50) and a second leg (51). The second leg (51) is capable of movement between a first or non-operating position proximal to the layer of intumescent material and a second or operational position whereby said layer of intumescent material that is in contact with said second leg, either directly or indirectly, at least partially

The present invention concerns a transit for cables, a cable bundle (9) or a bus bar (12). The transit comprises a sleeve (1) having a through opening (2) for receiving the cables or the bus bar (12). The sleeve (1) is to be received in a through opening (5) of a partition (4). A glass fiber tissue hose (7) is placed going through the opening of the sleeve (1). The ends of the tissue hose (7) is wrapped back and placed on the outside of the sleeve (1). One or more intumescent strips (6) are placed between the inside of the sleeve (1) and the tissue hose (7). A fire retarding agent (10) is placed around and between the cables or around the bus bar (12).
