Midlife update! In Harlingen, the Netherlands, Damen Shiprepair Harlingen is working on a major maintenance of HNLMS Snellius. The Snellius is one of the hydrographic survey vessels of The Royal Netherlands Navy, which maps out the seabed and sea routes. It is useful for creating up-to-date nautical charts, but also for military exercises and operations. After 12 years of intensive use, the Snellius was in need of major maintenance and a refit, a job entrusted to Damen. One p...art of the electrical work is the replacement of all cable transits on board. Now Roxtec modules are used in the frames for optimal safety, water-tightness, fire resistance and spare capacity for any updates and refits in the future. The Snellius is thereby ready for the second half. In this project, Roxtec BV provides the Roxtec support and service.

Multinational petroleum corporation Petrobras turned to Roxtec for verification of the cable and pipe transits onboard one of their FPSO vessels (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) before final approval from the classification society. Petrobras also asked the cable and pipe transit specialist to educate engineers and installers of Petrobras and the Jurong Shipyard on how Roxtec seals work. Roxtec performed transit inspections onboard the FPSO. The aim was to verify ...the installation quality and increase the knowledge about the sealing solutions. The Roxtec team consisted of sealing experts and inspectors from Sweden, Mexico and Brazil.

"Roxtec experts responded quickly, and we saved a lot of time" The Kotlovka 220/20 kV substation needed fire-rated, gas-tight, and removable seals for the cables coming up through the floor to the GIS room. Roxtec created a solution covering all these requirements. As the sealing solution is quite demanding, Roxtec provided extra technical support to the staff of the installation company. Roxtec representatives held installation training and performed onsite control in order to make sure that everyone involved in the project was fully satisfied.

A great project! The Victory Boogie Woogietunnel is the eye-catching part of the #Rotterdamsebaan; the new road that connects the Ypenburg interchange with the ring road of The Hague in The Netherlands. This project is a prime example of sustainable infrastructure, for example when it comes to design, air quality, and energy. Sustainability and safety were paramount in the selection of building materials hence the choice for Roxtec sealing solutions for cable and pipe penet...rations. All 50+ technical installations are operated from the service building above the tunnel (with solar panels on the roof). Roxtec cables and pipes transits have been used for all electrical and some of the mechanical systems. On the roof of the service building, Roxtec Swan Neck frames are used. For a cable duct with many cables from different systems, a special solution was needed. During construction, René Blauwhoff, Roxtec BV, provided advice and on-site support. The Rotterdamsebaan was built on behalf of Gemeente Den Haag by BAM Infra Nederland and VolkerWessels companies Vialis, KWS Infra and Van Hattum en Blankevoort.

Roxtec seals are indispensable for air-tightness. And air-tightness is a must if you work with infectious viruses such as ebola," says Hayato Yamamoto Takenaka has designed and built the containment testing facilities to show their customers within regenerative medicine, bio-medicine and infectious disease prevention how to achieve the ultimate safety level. Cable and pipe penetrations sealed with caulking materials have been the primary cause for water leaking into and parti...cles escaping from bio-clean and containment rooms, so Takenaka focused on finding a certified solution to propose for this challenge. Takenaka is researching and developing within advanced control technology of room pressure and airflow. By using Roxtec seals, they are able to experiment in various air-tightness levels. Roxtec transits are easy to adapt for efficient sealing around cables and pipes of different sizes in panel walls, panel ceilings and decontamination shower booths. The transits also enable design changes and additional cables, pipes and equipment. #safety #cableandpipeseals #protectinglifeandassets #multidiameter #cleanrooms #containment #airtight #airtightness Read more https://www.roxtec.com//success-st/takenaka-rd-institute/|20210618&utm_content=success-case-takenaka-clean-room See more

FANUC Robotics America has reduced the installation time of their painting robots from four weeks to four days. One key to this success is the use of Roxtec seals. https://bit.ly/3wSLle7 #robotics #robots #manufacturing #timesaver #protection #roxtec
