MCL Unitex Ltd, a member of the ISL Group of Companies, is a professional manufacturer of flexible passive fire protection systems and has extensive experience in the design, testing, construction and installation of fireproof seal systems and fireproof enclosures for oil, gas and petrochemical products. Worldwide refining industry. Experienced technical personnel can design on-demand systems and perform additional tests and certifications. MCL Unitex fireproof seals and enclosure systems are tested independently from IMO approved third-party test houses. Throughout the test, MCL 's systems maintain integrity, reliability, and insulation characteristics and therefore perform certification issued by Lloyd' s Shipping of Shipping (LR). In addition to the hydrocarbon furnace fire test, the Firetex infiltration seal system has undergone a stand-alone explosion overpressure test and has demonstrated its ability to maintain stability and integrity with up to 1.35 bar g of explosion. After recently establishing an internationally approved testing methodology, our systems have undergone jet testing and have been further approved to J120.
Firetex pipe penetration seals are wraparound style seals that can be installed quickly with approval from A0 to H120, designed for pipe / sleeve ratios from 15 mm to 1,067 mm in diameter. Our seals have been successfully tested to withstand explosion pressures up to 1.35 bar (g), and custom solutions can be configured for applications involving excessive motion on demand, but they can accommodate +/- 25 mm movement on all airplanes.
Firetex skirt seals offer powerful and cost-effective protection in modular vs. modular and modular to deck scenarios. Skirt sealing products also offer A0 to H120 protection for large rectangular duct infiltration seals and have been field tested to protect against explosive overpressures up to 1.16 bar (g).
Jettex's range of seal products is an enhancement to the Firetex family of products. The seal system maintains hydrocarbon fire protection properties but is reinforced as a second factor to protect against the additional mechanical forces of jet fire hazards. An additional third element has been added to the J120 sealant system to provide the most comprehensive protection available in the current market.
MCL's refractory case system is based on material technology similar to that of sealants but adds a larger silica fiber blanket thickness. These enclosure systems are intended to protect important equipment such as valve actuators in the event of hydrocarbon fire hazards and potential jet fires. Generally, enclosures made from tight jackets are specially designed to meet client specifications, ultimately determining the shelf life and the cool side temperature of the item being protected. Significant testing has been conducted over the years and test data has been used as the basis for the forecasting software program Calpro. This capability allows you to better analyze customer needs and predict performance outcomes. The MCL Unitex seal and enclosure systems are independently tested in IMO approved third-party test houses. Throughout the test, the MCL system maintains integrity, stability and insulation characteristics and therefore performs certification issued by Lloyd's Shipping of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and / or the American Shipping Association (ABS). Firetex's infiltration seal system range has been independently tested for explosive overpressure in addition to testing with hydrocarbon combustion and has demonstrated its ability to maintain stability and integrity with explosions up to 1.35 bar (g). Our systems have also undergone jet testing and have been approved by J120 after establishing internationally recognized testing methodologies.
MCL Unitex manufactures seal and enclosure systems according to strict quality control procedures according to the requirements of ISO 9001. Official certification is conducted through the BSI and is audited annually through BSI. Copies of our certificates and quality manuals are available upon request and customer inspections are welcome. Firetex seals and enclosures are multi-component systems made of ceramic and silica high temperature resistant sheaths, glass cloth, insulating felt and blankets, metal foil and high grade stainless steel. Silicate fiber blankets with patented fiber formulations that give the body improved solubility characteristics are also used. These components have proven to be totally harmless under fire conditions. The COSHH data sheet is available upon request.
