QUICKPASS™

The Quickpass™ is a new patent pending method for firestopping telecom, electrical, and fiber-optic cables that requires only minimal alterations to the firestop component.

Designed in conjunction with industry professionals, the Quickpass™ system requires as little as zero minutes of firestop modifications when installing new cables. Simply pass the cable through the firestop and the flexible foam smoke barrier, add a dab of putty for smoke resistance between the cables and you are protected!

The Quickpass™ system is also designed to maximize the cable allowances of your openings and is unique with its UL approved large opening system for 100% visual cable fill amounts. Once the Quickpass system is installed, cable additions require no firestop material removal, no additional product installation, no cutting, no measurements, or further renovations are necessary for up to a 2-hour fire protection rating using normal cable installation personnel.

Most other firestop systems require many hours of the work to repair to reinstall their firestop after a cable addition. Multiply that by the hundreds of re-penetrations that can occur during the life span of a firestop assembly and you can spend many thousands of dollars and man hours trying to keep your firestop systems up-to-date.


Product Description:
The Quickpass™ is constructed using a sturdy steel frame and lightweight but sturdy pre-insulated modular members that are not susceptible to damage due to the wear and tear of constant use. Between the outside frame and the fire-rated cross members are two opposing heat activated intumescent channels designed to close immediately around penetrating cables during a fire condition.

Building smoke is contained by the Quickstop™ putty installed between the cables, and by an intumescent foam cross panel that normally seals snugly against the cables during normal building conditions. This supplied intumescent foam cross panel will also expand with heat to better ensure a complete seal during a fire situation.

The Quickpass™ unit is designed to enlarge the opening space as necessary with the ongoing cable installations through the opening. Once the existing opening size is filled, a modular cross-member is easily removed and one heat-activated intumescent channel is indexed to increase the available cable opening.

The entire Quickpass™ system can be installed at the initial stage of building opening construction or can be easily retrofitted to existing openings. It is also easily cut for adapting to smaller size openings.

Applications: The Quickpass™ is approved for electrical, telecom, and fiber optic cables and innerduct systems in Structural Concrete Floor or Walls, Masonry Walls, Hollow Core Concrete Floors and 1 or 2-hour Fire Rated Gypsum Wall applications.

Size and Space Requirements:

Floor Installations: The Quickpass™ unit extends 3" out from the underside surface of the floor and requires a minimum 3" (75mm) clearance around the entire opening. Only one Quickpass unit is required for a floor opening.
Wall Installations: The Quickpass™ unit is inserted into the wall opening and requires an additional 6" (152mm) of opening height and width to accommodate the unit. Only one Quickpass unit is required inside a wall opening.

Testing and Approvals: The Quickpass™ has been tested for up to a 2-hour fire rating to UL1479, ULC-S115-95, and ASTM E814.

Installation Details:
Each Quickpass unit comes complete with a detailed installation manual for use with all approved applications. Pricing and Product Availability
