E-RGSK
E-RGSK transits are recommended if pooling of water on the transit face makes it necessary to install packing blocks at a certain distance from the deck or bulkhead.
The system consists of a frame, rubber blocks and a compression unit.
The frame is welded to a marine structure and packed with rubber blocks suited for each cable and pipe dimension. The compression unit is inserted to compress the rubber blocks against cables and pipes to establish a tight seal.
Benefits of MCT Brattberg E-systems
- Protects against electrical and magnetic interference (EMI), “bugging”, electronic sabotage (SEMP) and static electricity (ESD).
- Assists cable management.
- Integral earthing between cables and wall screen.
- Also seals the penetration against the passage of fire, water, gas, sound and environmental hazards.
- Special E-Series for Grounding and Bounding
- System can be dismantled and re-used.
Overview
E-RGSK is an extended standard E-RGS transit, with machined grooves for stayplates and compression plates. The material is 10 mm (0.39”) thick on the ends and 12 mm (0.47”) thick on the sides.
Standard frames come in eight sizes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.
The internal width can be 60.5 ± 1 (Size 1,3,5,7) or 120.5 ± 1 (2,4,6,8).
Note that there can be limitations in type-approvals & certificates, making certain sizes inapplicable.
E-RGSK transits are recommended if pooling of water on the transit face makes it necessary to install packing blocks at a certain distance from the deck or bulkhead. The frame is 120 mm (4.72”) deep (as opposed to 60 mm (2.36”) on a E-RGS) and of standard internal width 120 mm (4.72”).
The EMC secret is a tempered metal sheet which systematically stops electrical current from passing along the cable screening through the seal and successfully function as an extended wall screen.
- All dimensions are exactly the same for the standard MCT Brattberg components.
- All Insert Blocks are marked with yellow marking (see instructions).

Instructions
EMC
- All dimensions are exactly the same for the standard MCT Brattberg components.
- All Insert Blocks are marked with yellow marking (see instructions).
Grounding and Bonding
- For grounding & bonding applications standard presswedge or endpacking is sufficient.
- Series RGS, RGB, RGG, and E-RGP These products are primarily intended for grounding and bonding of communication, instrument, power, braid or wire armored cables and copper pipes, up to max. 1 AWG.
- Plugs and Wraps are only for use in Grounding and Bonding applications, not EMC.
Correct and safe installations
To achieve the highest standard of safety, a cable or pipe transit must be installed correctly. As there are many different types of frame – which may be either welded, bolted or glued into position – and insert block, it is essential that installers known when to use the most appropriate installation method.
