Choose Roxtec sealing systems for safe and reliable protection and easy compliance with IACS requirements

Certified cable and pipe transit seals

There are three main reasons why ship owners worldwide specify Roxtec transit systems to seal cables, metal pipes, and plastic pipes: they want to ensure safety and operational reliability; they need a reliable partner to inspect all penetration seals throughout the vessel's lifecycle; and they want to know their multi-cable sealing systems meet the latest International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) requirements.

Roxtec cable and pipe transit systems offer certified protection against multiple hazards. The sealing system is fire, gas, and watertight, reduces noise and vibration, and helps protect against explosion risks. It even offers innovative solutions for bonding, grounding, and protection against electromagnetic interference.

Shipping companies appreciate that Roxtec provides most certified sealing solutions. They understand that frequent equipment changes, upgrades, and installations can affect onboard cable and pipe transits. Therefore, they choose Roxtec as their partner and sealing expert.

Transit Seal System Inspection Services

Regardless of testing and certification, penetration seals must be correctly installed and fully functional to meet all needs and classification society safety requirements. Therefore, Roxtec offers visual inspections of cable and pipe seals on refurbished and new vessels.

Experienced sealing experts (class-approved) conduct seal system inspections, providing ship owners with the necessary assurance. After inspection, owners have full control over all cable and pipe transit status. Roxtec can even help prepare a class-compliant cable transit seal systems register.

Meeting IACS Requirements

The unified requirements from the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) aim to improve onboard safety. For example, there's a clear focus on the installation quality and verification of watertight cable transits. Requirements regarding the management, documentation, and inspection of watertight cable transits apply to ships contracted for construction on or after July 1, 2021, and require action. Owners and operators must maintain and update a cable transit seal systems register. They must ensure the register is complete, correct, and available for surveyors, and at periodic surveys, confirm that all watertight cable transits are installed according to manufacturer and type approval requirements. Roxtec provides support as a class-approved service provider and through cable transit management software.
