Adapt the modules by peeling
off layers.
11
The number of layers may not
differ (A) by more than one
between the corresponding
module halves.
12
Lubricate all sealing surfaces on
the modules.
9
Achieve a 0.1-1.0 mm (A) gap
between the two halves when
held against the cable/pipe.
14
Insert the modules and cables/
pipes according to your packing
plan.
13
Lubricate the sealing surfaces
of the spare modules. Do not
remove the core.
17
Tighten the nuts crosswise in
small steps.
16
Push the front fittings back
towards the center.

A Roxtec pre-compression tool
can be used to make room
for the final module row, if
necessary.
Signs of good compression are: The bolts are tightened similarly.
Excessive lubricant is visible directly after installation. The rubber
surfaces bulge and show convexity.
