During a renovation of the brewery's roof, cables for a photovoltaic system had to be fed through the roof and reliably sealed. The challenge was a closed trapezoidal roof and thick, inflexible cables. A standard product such as a swan-neck roof entry was therefore not suitable for a watertight sealing. A gladly accepted challenge for UGA to prove itself as a special solution expert! #challengeaccepted
First, a square drilling is made in the ceiling and a base plate is attached for the later solution. Attaching a fixed-loose flange construction with integrated wall sleeves at a 45° angle allows the cable route to be laid. The cables lead through the wall sleeve and are sealed with the help of a rubber press seal. Here, too, a solution with an overlaying flange is used to prevent the rubber press seal from slipping into the wall sleeve. An additional bitumen sheet completes this reliable sealing solution from UGA.
The design of this customized parts ensures optimal sealing of the cables, which are difficult to bend and thick. Assembly is easy with the products, specially made for the construction site situation. If more cables need to be led through at a later date, all that is required is to insert a rubber press seal with an additional drilling. #challengecompleted
