KF 604

• Wall / Floor cut – outs in buildings/rooms, where cables/cable trays pass through
• Below Panel Openings in control rooms/cable galleries/cable vaults

• Functions by limiting the oxygen drawn from the atmosphere, thereby inhibiting the combustion and heat build-up process in the immediate vicinity of the cable insulation.
• Dissipates the heat generated by the fire and thereby prevents heat conduction.

Consumption calculation and estimation:
With cable occupancy of minimum 30%, consumption of KF 604 will be approximately 160 to 170 Kgs per
square meter. If cable occupancy is higher, less material shall be needed to fill 1 square meter. Standard
thickness: 200mm

1. Find an empty open, flat space, and place a plastic sheet/tarpaulin on the ground
2. Open 2 to 3 bags, 25 Kgs each depending on the space and consumption at a time
3. Make a small heap with a crater in the center, similar method as used for cement mixture
4. Add clean water in the center and allow soaking for a few minutes
5. Using your hands start mixing the powder with the water to achieve thick clay like consistency of
   the material
6. Make circular elongated shapes as shown in the image, and stock on side. After making enough as
   per estimation, take material to site of application
7. Ensure proper shuttering on opposite side of opening to avoid spillage of material
8. After filling of opening with KF 604 material, ensure proper surfacing and finishing to make flush
   with neighboring walls
9. Clear any debris or balance material and dispose properly
10. Please note, at certain locations, ambient temperature being high, causing the barrier system to dry
    quickly can lead to thin hairline cracks developing on the surface of the barrier. Using a slurry
    solution of KF604 using more water and less material, must be used to fill the cracks and provide a
    neat finishing
11. Please note: for larger openings, usage of steel rods or angles might be required within the opening
    to achieve strong hold and support for the system to ensure longer life
12. To achieve a hard dry status, we recommend a drying/curing period of 72 hours in ambient
    conditions. After this time, the barrier shall be water resistant and flame resistant and retain its
    properties for a longer period
13. Please note: once a packet has been opened, consume at once, do not store for later application as
    the material might catch moisture and harden losing its properties. It is recommended to open only
    packets required per location at a time.

NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT STORE MATERIAL IN THE OPEN
It must be placed in a covered shed to avoid drying up and damaging of material inside

• For 250mm Thickness: 1 Sq.Meter – 220 – 260 Kgs / Sq.meter – 4 Hours Rating
• For 200mm Thickness : 1 Sq.Meter – 165 – 200 Kgs / Sq.meter – 3 Hours Rating
• For 100mm Thickness : 1 Sq.Meter – 90 – 120 Kgs / Sq.meter – 2 Hours Rating

25 Kg Bags

STORAGE:
Please store the product in covered area and not exposed to direct sunlight or heat as the product is water based and may dry up, losing its adherent properties.
