CommScope TDUX-35 Manuale utente
Selection table
(dimensions in mm/inches)
Maximum cable diameter for duct with 1
cable or sum of 2 cables.
Each TDUX size will seal vacant ducts for the
duct range shown in the table.
* Note: in case 3 or more cables have to be sealed, the cable bundle diameter needs to be determined. Substract 5 mm/0.2 inches for each
clip used from max. cable diameter shown in table, to determine the max. cable bundle diameter. TDUX-clips must be ordered as a separate item.
TDUX-CL clips are not to be used with TDUX-35. They are applicable to TDUX-45 and larger. TDUX-35 is suitable for use in vacant ducts or ducts
with 1 cable.

1 Safety rules
Lubricant
Protect from frost. In case of eye contact, flush with clean water during 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
Wash with mild soap and water if skin irritation occurs.
Gas cylinders
If the carbon dioxide gas cylinders are used to inflate TDUX, following safety rules should be considered. The gas pressure in the cylinder is approxi-
mately 60 bar (900 p.s.i.) at room temperature. Max. operational temperature is 50°C/122°F. Keep cool and dry. Use only as instructed in ope-
rating manual of TDUX-IT-16 inflator. Misuse can be dangerous. Do not handle the cylinder with unprotected hands
immediately after filling a TDUX duct seal. Frostbite can result.
TDUX seals
Do not inflate TDUX outside a duct.
2 Application
TDUX will seal ducts with/without cable(s) and can be installed even while water is flowing out of the duct. Avoid exposure of the installed TDUX
duct seal to direct sunlight.
3 Unit packaging
TDUX duct seals are packed per 10 pcs/box (TDUX-35: 25 pieces per box), including 1 lubricant disperser and 1 installation instruction.

A Inflation tool using compressed CO2gas
cylinders (to be ordered separately) equiped
with a manometer and safety relieve valve.
4 Tooling
TDUX duct seals can be installed with a variety of inflation tools, having the capability to inflate TDUX to 3,0 ± 0,2 bar/45 ± 3 p.s.i. of
pressure. Following tools are available from TE Connectivity.
B Inflation gun to be connected to
pressurised air bottle, pump or compressor.
The inlet pressure to the inflation gun should
be min. 4 bar/60 p.s.i. and max.
10 bar/150 p.s.i..
5.1 It is recommended to wet clean the duct
and cable sheath.
5.2 For ease of installation, lubricate the
cable sheath.
5.3 Remove the protective paper from the
outside of the sealing strip and lubricate abun-
dantly.
5.4 Remove the protective paper from the
inside of the sealing strip. Lubricate
abundantly.
5.5 Lubricate the filling tube on the TDUX sec-
tion.
5.6 Wrap TDUX around the cable and slide
completely into the duct.
5.7 In case of 2 cables, wrap TDUX around
the cables as shown, starting with the largest
cable.
5.8 Connect the filling tube to the tube-snap
of the inflation tool.
5.9 Inflate TDUX up to the pressure of
3,0 bar/45 p.s.i. and keep the pressure at
3.0 ± 0,2 bar/45 ± 3 p.s.i. during 30 sec.
after which the tool must be shut-off.
Note: please refer to the operating manual for
the specific inflation tool being used.

5.10 Pull-out the filling tube in one gentle
move in the direction of the cable.
A Examples for different multiple cable
configuration.
TDUX-CL
Sealing system for multiple telephone cable configurations,
to be used in combination with TDUX inflatable duct seals
Application
TDUX-CL duct seal clip is used in
combination with TDUX inflatable duct seal, if
the duct is occupied with 3 cables or more.
TDUX-CL duct seal clips must be ordered as a
separate item.
For sizing information, please refer to
selection table on the front page.
One TDUX-CL clip can seal up to 4 cables. If
more cables are to be sealed, use
1 extra clip per 3 additional cables.
1 Open clip wings on one side. Lubricate
the wings abundantly, to ensure that they don’t
stick together.
2 Remove one protection paper and
lubricate abundantly the larger surface of the
clip wing
3Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other clip
wings. Remove protection paper only after
lubricating at least one wing side.
4 Abundantly lubricate the cables in the
crunch area as much as possible.
5 Insert the clip in between the cables,
assuring that there is only one cable between
each clip wing (see picture A “configurations).
Make sure that the central part of the clip is
well positioned in the crunch area (mark flush
with duct entrance).
6 If necessary use a tie-wrap to hold the
clip in place. Cut off the excess of the tie-
wrap and position the locking part between
the cables. Tape all cables together close to
the duct.

7. Install the TDUX duct seal following the
standard TDUX installation procedure.
6.4 Multiple cables/ducts with CL-clips
If necessary, remove tape (and tie wrap) from
the cable bundle. Spread cables and apply
lubricant in the crunch area. Remove clip core
and sealant as much as possible with a pair
of pliers.
6.1 Deflate the TDUX seal by piercing with a
screw-driver. Release the TDUX from the duct
wall by using a blunt tool.
6 Removal
If required, lubricant is separately available.
6.2 Release TDUX from the cable bundle.
Apply lubricant on the released areas to faci-
litate removal of the TDUX from the duct wall
with the lubricant bottle.
6.3 Pull TDUX out of the duct with a pair of
pliers.
