Comprehensive benefits

MCT Brattberg cable and pipe transits are designed and manufactured to provide maximum benefits to all concerned as shown below.

System concept

  • The system is comprehensive, i.e. contains a complete range of frames, blocks, insulation collars and complementary products.
  • Long-term reliability of all components. For example, frames and insert blocks continue to provide an effective seal over the long term even when continually exposed to adverse conditions.
  • A warranty period that supports long-term reliability and gives confidence in products and supplier.
  • The system provides the application flexibility needed to quickly configure and install all types of cable and pipe transit.
  • The design and features of each type of component, e.g. insert blocks with good identification, tight tolerances and self-lubrication, make them easy to install.
  • Product costs are reduced and assembly facilitated by no special tools required to install transits.
  • Packing guides are available to show how best to configure insert blocks and cables within frames.
  • Transit design planning software is available for engineers/designers to save time and effort involved with configuring transits.
  • To ensure consistent quality of all system components, their production is governed by an accepted and independent QA/QC system like ISO 9001.
  • Transit components are durable and stable enough to allow later disassembly.

Transit frames

  • The frames are strong enough to withstand extreme conditions, e.g. shock and vibration of ship bulkheads and decks.
  • Each corner is multiple-welded (at least two welds) to meet the requirements of a destruction test.
  • Robotic welding is used to maintain uniform and consistent high-quality welds.
  • Tight dimensional tolerances to maintain the defined functionality of insert blocks and other components.
  • The inner surfaces are smooth and free from residual weld spatter to facilitate insert block packing.

Insert blocks

  • The cable/pipe size can be clearly identified on each insert block.
  • The blocks are made of a self-extinguishing material.
  • The blocks are self-lubricating to facilitate installation.
  • The blocks retain their shape over the long term to maintain correct functionality.
  • The blocks do not crack, melt, harden or become brittle under normal environmental conditions.
  • The blocks do not release corrosive gases such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine when subject to fire.
  • The blocks do not deteriorate when under attack by rodents, insects or microorganisms.
  • The blocks are moulded to tight tolerances to ensure uniform and accurate sizing.
  • Block design prevents displacement after installation.
  • The blocks result in minimal waste during installation.

Testing and certification

  • Testing and certification are carried out on all products for safety and functionality according to the standards of the major authorities.
  • Independent witnesses are allowed to visit factory, processing and testing facilities.

Customer support

  • Good product literature is supplied by the manufacturer.
  • The manufacturer/supplier has a good customer support program.
  • The manufacturer/supplier responds quickly to customer enquiries.
  • Global support is available.
  • Product/application training and seminars are provided.
