Description Fiber optic antifreeze gel protects cables from damage due to ice formation Polywater® IceFree™ Cable Antifreeze Gel is a specialty, non-freezing gel that is pumped into conduits around cables to prevent water ingress and subsequent ice formation and is recommended for systems placed above the frost line. Polywater IceFree fiber optic antifreeze gel has protected the cables of thousands of bridges and highway crossings and other vulnerable areas exposed to freezing temperatures. Polywater® IceFree™ | TOTAL CONDUIT ENCAPSULATING GEL SYSTEM Surrounds cables and valves with a gel that does not freeze Fills conduits and cavities to prevent water ingress Maintains operation of vital fiber cable and valve systems Features Features PREVENTS ICE FORMATION Fills conduit and cavities to prevent water ingress PROTECTS KEY ASSETS Surrounds cables and valves with a gel that does not freeze ENSURES RELIABLE SYSTEMS Maintains operation of vital fiber cable and valve systems REDUCES DOWNTIME Safeguards cable from ice-pressure COMPATIBLE WITH CABLE Gel is fully compatible with cable—no jacket swelling or cracking EASY REENTRY Soft gel allows cable removal for repair or upgrade and doesn’t interfere with valve operation Product Notes Does not stress crack polyethylene jackets after 168 hours of exposure when tested to ASTM D1693. IceFree has good temperature stability. It will not phase out or separate after freeze/thaw cycle testing. In-Service Temperature use range is -50°F to 120°F (-45°C to 50° C). IceFree antifreeze gel is a thick gel that can be installed using a high-pressure grease pump. The Polywater LP-D5 drill pump works for short distances, less than 20 feet (6 meters).
