Astro X Series CE Pipe Collars are designed and tested to seal service penetration apertures containing plastic pipes or cables, using thermoplastic composites based on graphite intumescent technology.
Developed to provide a high volume expansion and pressure seal during a fire. The X Series CE Collar offers EI120 and EI240 tested in accordance with EN1366-3 : 2009, the maximum diameter being 250mm, the ultra thin design of Astro X Series Collar shell gives a depth of 30mm and 40mm ensuring that they can be installed into the tightest of locations.
Astro X Series Pipe Collar can be installed on flexible or rigid wall and rigid floor constructions. It can also be used with Astro Batt systems.
They are compatible with polypropylene (pp),polyethylene (PE) and Polyvinylchoride (PVC) pipes. X Series Collar is tested with end capping configurations that cover U/U, C/U, U/C and C/C pipes.
Astro X Series CE Pipe Collar is used around combustible pipes to form a penetration seal used to reinstate the fire resistance performance of wall and floor constructions, where they have been provided with apertures for the penetration of combustible pipe services.
Astro X Series CE Pipe Collar include an intumescent component incorporated into a mild steel case to close any gaps and joints and provide a closure of combusting pipes when heated and to prevent the passage of fire.

Maintenance
All interested parties, designer, specifier, main contractor and specialist installers should provide access to allow the fire stopping seals to be regularly inspected and maintained, as well as records kept of such maintenance at minimum periods of 12 months, as required by the Regulatory Reform Order, and repaired if necessary. Reference should be made to ASFP TGD 17 – Code of Practice for the Installation and Inspection of Fire Stopping.
Competency
It is vital that those entrusted to design or install a fire stopping product have the necessary levels of competence to undertake the task professionally and thoroughly. The level of competency required will be commensurate with the expected complexity of the building. All designers must eliminate, reduce or control foreseeable risks that may arise during installation, construction or maintenance when preparing or modifying designs. Clients should ensure that the principal designer and principal contractor carry out their duties under CDM regulations. The ASFP foundation course in passive fire protection provides essential knowledge as part of demonstrating competency and understanding in this key fire protection specialism.
