CA31/32/33

Expansion Resin/Sealing Hose/

Cartridge Gun
For fixing gas & water house service lines and
cable conduits in brickwork and concrete
CHARACTERISTICS
resistant to pullout (tensile force 30 KN)
gasproof (test pressure 1 bar)
resistant to thermal stress (650 C,
30 min at 0.1 bar, medium: air)
resistant to cutting after 5 min
fully hardened after 30 min
watertight in conjunction with
CA 32 Sealing Hose
SCOPE OF USE
CA 31 is used for fixing and sealing gas and water house
service lines as well as cable and wall ducts.
It is compatible with all usual building materials and plastics
(e.g. PS foam/Styropor

) and can later be covered with KSK

products and KMB products. The product is resistant to oil,
water and solvents as well as age-proof.
If used in conjunction with the CA 32 Sealing Hose, pipes
and cables can be fixed and permanently sealed against
pressurized water. Tested at the DVGW Research Institute,
Karlsruhe/Germany (based on the DVGW test guideline
VP 601).
CA 32 is suitable for cracks from 8 mm width and pipe
diameters of 40 to 90 mm. Use several sealing hoses with
larger pipe diameters (see under Application).
The CA 32 Sealing Hose expands in the presence of water,
thus providing a permanent barrier against pressurized
water.
The hose achieves a 3-fold volume increase after approx.
20 minutes.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
The substrate must be solid, clean and free of substances
which may impair adhesion.
APPLICATION
Non-pressurized water
Insert the house service line with the help of a rubber locating
ring, with the plug opening pointing upwards. If the pipe to
be fixed is already centrally located in the brickwork, the
supplied template "Lost shuttering" can be used to prevent
the expansion resin from flowing out.
Take the protective cap off the cartridge, screw on the nozzle
and load the cartridge into the special cartridge gun CA 33.
Squeeze a few cubic centimetres (515) of resin onto paper
or sheeting until a uniformly coloured product comes out.
Immediately insert the extension tube into the plug opening
of the rubber ring or of the "Lost shuttering" template (inter-
nal/external). Evenly squeeze the content of the cartridge into
the ring gap between brickwork and pipe. The opening on
either side of the ring space can also be closed with a PE
bead.
If the cartridge is not fully emptied, put the cap on again. The
cartridge can then be re-used with a new static mixer.
Pressurized water
In the presence of permanently pressurized water, it is addi-
tionally necessary to use the CA 32 Sealing Hose. Wrap
the hose around the house service line or pipe (at least 3

windings) and press it snugly into the ring space. Outer
distance between exterior wall and CA 32 sealing hose:
approx. 50 mm.
Squeeze CA 31 Expansion Resin into the cavities, using
either locating rings or the template "Lost shuttering". The
hose must be completely enclosed on either side by the resin.
CA 32 can also be used with larger pipe diameters and
crack widths when using several sealing hoses. Wrap the
hoses in several layers around the pipe. Make sure the mini-
mum number of 3 windings is observed and the hoses are
pressed snugly into the ring gap.
Use CA 31 only at temperatures of +5 C to +30 C. The
optimum application temperature is between +15 C and
+25 C (product, ambient and pipe/substrate temperature).

PLEASE NOTE
If the resin needs to be used at a lower ambient temperature
(0 C to +5 C), it should be warmed to room temperature if
possible; otherwise curing will be considerably lengthened.
Do not apply on stagnant water. Moist brickwork does not
affect the product performance.
Observe the warnings-, safety- and waste disposal advice
given in the safety data sheet.
