Multi-Gard PVC
is a multi-cell raceway system for direct burial and
concrete encasement applications. 20' lay length
sections of 4" PVC outer shell Type C, Type 40, or
Type 80 have either 3 x 1 1/4" nominal or 4 x 1"
nominal pre-lubed PVC innerducts pre-installed. In
addition, all fixed and patented flexible bends utilize
“cut-through” resistant engineered plastic innerducts.
Many other accessories for terminating, pulling cable,
jetting cable, and directional boring are available.
Features:
• Pre-lubricated innerducts provide very low
coefficient of friction for easy pulls, and PVC
innerducts expand and contract at the same rate
as outerduct.
• Anti-reversing gaskets on coupling body allow
for easy joining. Eliminates need for cementing
joints except in boring or jetting applications.
• Jettable using high speed air blowing systems.
• O-ring gasket at base of bell reduces risk of
water entering system.
• Inward tapering holes on coupling body give
quick and easy innerduct alignment.
• Print line on outer duct states “Install Print Line Up”
to keep system straight during installation.
• Marked innerduct and marked hole on coupling
body ensure proper innerduct alignment and
allow crews to work from opposite directions.
• Terminators for standard, pull-through , and
jet-through applications.
• Standard and slip sleeve couplings for field cuts
and repairs.
• Field repair kit for outershell and innerducts
allows repair without taking cable out of service.
• Transition adaptors allow transition between
different outerducts.
• 6" deep bell provides strong joint for field bends.
• Internal spacers maintain straight innerduct path.
• End caps are provided on each 20 ft. section.
• Staging materials to job site is simplified.
• Patented flexible bends allow changes in direction.

Trenching
Installation allows Multi-Gard in
the trench to be placed one section
at a time or over the trencher for
continuous feed. Open trenching
with Type C Multi-Gard is recommended for direct burial or concrete
encased applications.
Features:
• Install one section at a time.
• Multiple-cells are installed as soon as
product is placed.
• Economical installation with
installation speed as fast as the
trencher can dig.
• Easy installation with standard
equipment.
• Gasketed coupling body prevents
conduit pulling apart during
installation.
• Industry standard outer duct in Type
C is suitable for direct burial.
• Type 40 outer shell and Type 80
outershell are available where extra
protection is necessary.
• Spacers inside outershell allow
PVC innerduct internal movement
allowing for more flexibility.
Procedures:
Paved Areas In paved areas, the surface should be carefully
cut to prevent unnecessary excessive width at the top of the
trench and help reduce the amount of surface to be repaved.
Trench Width For economical operation, particularly where
paving is involved, the trench width should be no greater than
is needed to provide adequate working space. Generally, this
dimension is controlled by the types of excavating equipment
used. As a minimum, the trench must be 5 inches wider than
the width of the conduit structure where backfill will be used
and 3 inches wider where concrete encasement will be used.
Individual job specifications will dictate trench width.
Trench Bed Grade and level the trench bed. Where
necessary, provide sand and/or other granular backfill as
bedding material so the conduit will be evenly supported over
the length of each section.
Assembly On Top Of The Trench After preparing the
trench, the Multi-Gard can be assembled on top of the ground
outside of the trench by following the directions described on
page 5. Once joined together, the Multi-Gard can then be laid
gently into the trench. Backfill according to the job specifications.
Trench Feeding Multi-Gard Using Rollers This procedure
involves assembling the Multi-Gard above the ground. After
the first four or five lengths are assembled, place on top of the
trenching machine. The remainder of the duct can be attached
to the first section and assembled ahead of the trencher on the
ground directly above the intended place for the trench. As the
trencher advances forward, the Multi-Gard will lay itself into
the trench behind. Once placed in the trench, backfill according
to the job specification.

applications consisting of 20' lay lengths of either
standard wall, heavy wall or bullet resistant 4"
fiberglass outer shell with 3 x 1 1/2" or 4 x 1 1/4"
nominal pre-lubed innerducts pre-installed. In
addition, fixed bends with “cut-through” resistant
engineered plastic innerducts are available along
with many other accessories for terminating, cable
pulling, and cable blowing.
Features:
• Pre-installed silicone lined PVC innerducts reduce
coefficient of friction for easy cable pulling or jetting.
• Anti-reversing gaskets on coupling body allow
easy push in – hard to pull out sealing system.
• Jettable using high speed air blowing systems.
• O-ring gasket at base of bell reduces risk of
water entering system.
• Inward tapering holes on coupling body give
quick and easy innerduct alignment.
• Marked innerduct and marked hole on coupling
body ensure proper innerduct alignment.
• Couplings in standard and slip sleeve reduce
waste.
• Transition adapters to allow transition between
different outerducts.
• Deep bell provides strong joint.
• Internal spacers keep innerducts straight.
• Staging materials to job site is simplified.
• Standard Wall .070" provides basic mechanical and
UV protection.
• Heavy Wall .090" provides enhanced mechanical
protection where physical abuse might be
experienced.
• Bullet Resistant .250" provides heavy duty protection.

Duct Proofing & Cable Installation
Duct Proofing for Cable Pulling
Use 175 or 250 CFM Compressor for maximum line blowing
potential. Choose pull line based on length of pull and
tension expected.
1. Remove all plugs in terminator at exit end and only the
plug being shot into on the entrance end.
2. Turn threaded nozzle into terminator until tight, without
pull line or missiles to blow any debris or water which
might have collected.
3. Open gate on nozzle to apply air to innerduct. Close gate
after any debris or water has been blown out.
4. Unscrew nozzle and thread pull line through eyelet in
nozzle and tie to line blowing missile. Place pull line reel
on stand for feeding.
5. Place line blowing missile into open innerduct and
carefully open gate on nozzle.
6. Feed pull line off reel and keep slight tension to avoid
rope packing in innerduct.
7. When using flat tape as pull line, use twisted blow line
(RP142) to blow in and retrieve flat tape.
Proofing for Jetting Cable
Use 375 CFM compressor for best results
1. Attach polyethylene feed tube (1" SDR 13.5 for 4-way and
1 1/4" SDR 13.5 for 3-way) with coupling recommended for
high speed air blowing systems to empty innerduct
extension on jet-through terminator.
2. Assemble coupling according to high speed blowing
system manufacturers recommended instructions.
3. Attach opposite end of polyethylene feed to high speed
air speed machine.
4. Plug all unused holes in the Multi-Gard terminator at
entry point and remove all plugs at exit terminator.
Apply 100-110 PSI to the Multi-Gard innerduct. Close the
air output valve and stop compressor. The innerduct is
acceptable if a loss of 20 PSI or less happens within 2
minutes of pressurization. WARNING: NO PERSONNEL IN
MANHOLES DURING PRESSURE TEST.
5. Multi-Gard is ready for jetting cable procedures on page 24
if air pressure is acceptable.

Duct Proofing and Cable Installation
Cable Installation Using Pulling Equipment
The low co-efficient of friction of pre-lubricated PVC will allow pulls
in excess of 4000' for Multi-Gard unless abrupt changes are in the
route. Pull speeds of 100-200 ft. per minute are acceptable.
Cable pulling operations:
1. Multi-Gard innerducts are pre-lubricated. Additional lubricant
may be used for longer pulls.
2. Align the pull blocks or sheaves so the pull line passes directly
and freely from the innerduct entrance. Cable should be fed
from the top of the reel.
3. Choose swivel with load rating at or below maximum pull limit.
Attach swivel between pull line and cable pulling eye or basket
grip.
4. Maintain constant pulling tension to avoid stop/start. A
monitoring device should be used to avoid over tensioning the
cable. Most outside plant cables are rated for 600 lbs. Check
with cable manufacturer for specific pulling tension.
5. Leave slack in each handhole where racking will be needed.
Innerduct Racking Using Pulling Equipment
The racking operation should be done after the cable has been
pulled through the Multi-Gard.
1. Place PVC corrugated split innerduct over slack cable.
2. Secure cable in innerduct against handhole/manhole wall out of way.
Cable Installation Using Jetting Equipment
Multi-Gard with the new Air-Gard™ gasket and pre-lubed PVC
innerduct is ideal for jetting cable. (Refer to pages 5 and 6 for
Multi-Gard assembly in jetting applications).
Jetting cable operations:
1. Set up jetting equipment for easy accessibility to PE innerduct
secured to Multi-Gard.
2. Blow foam carriers through innerduct until clean and dry.
3. Multi-Gard is now ready for jetting according to high speed air
blowing system manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Leave slack in each handhole where racking will be needed.
Innerduct Racking Using Jetting Equipment
The racking operation should be done before the cable has been
jetted through the Multi-Gard, unless slack is needed in vault.
1. Cut innerducts square and attach PE racking innerduct to PVC jet
terminator using coupling rated for high speed air blowing system.
2. Assemble coupling according to coupling manufacturers’
recommended instructions.
3. Rack innerduct against sides of vault at a maximum 18" radius
and attach PE innerduct to jet terminator on opposite side of
vault.

around bends. Bends containing HDPE or PVC innerducts do not have the
same resistance to cut-through.
Open the trench just once. Multi-Gard allows customers additional cells to
upgrade their Telecom Network System.
Multi-Gard factory installed innerducts allow more innerducts to be placed
inside the 4" conduit (4 x 1.19" and 3 x 1.50"). When placing innerducts you
are limited to (3 x 1.25" or 2 x 1.5") on many systems.
Multi-Gard factory installed innerducts avoid the risk of "neckdown". Neckdown occurs when innerducts are pulled past their tensile strength, causing
the plastic to stretch out.
All material arrives on the job site at the same time! Crews can begin
assembly without waiting for additional material to deliver. After installing
Multi-Gard there are no empty reels to return or dispose.

PULL IT! JET IT! GARD IT!
ADVANCED CABLE PLACEMENT TECHNIQUES AND METHODS USING MULTI-GARD
MULTI-CELLED CONDUIT SYSTEMS FROM CARLON TELECOM SYSTEMS
able placement has drastically changed since the late 1980’s.
Although cable is not fragile, placement in conduit systems
requires attention to pulling tensions and side wall pressures.
Manufacturers are working closely together to provide the properties available for cable, conduit, lubricants, and
cable placing equipment to allow the longest cable
placement achievable with the minimum risk to
cable.
C
Multiple Cells
New conduit structures should consider multi®
celled conduit systems such as Multi-Gard
from Carlon Telecom Systems. Multi-Gard is a
complete system of outerducts with preinstalled innerducts. Type C outerduct is recommended for direct burial with other wall
thicknesses available for different applications such as Type 40 PVC, Type 80 PVC,
fiberglass for bridge crossings, and galvanized steel for bridge head walls. Each
Multi-Gard 20' section has a gasketed
coupling inside the bell end. The bell and
coupling push into the next section by
hand without tools. The gasket seals the
outerduct and innerducts, without the
use of cements, in one motion. Preinstalled innerducts have numerous
advantages over pulling innerduct
into conduit. Three 11/2" l.D.
innerducts or four 11/4" innerducts
allow cable to be pulled at least
twice as far as pulled innerduct,
saving hand holes and time. Each
bend is manufactured using “cutthrough” resistant innerduct to
resist rope cutting through an
adjacent occupied innerduct. The
Multi-Gard system is also both pullable and jettable.
New Gasketing
Carlon Telecom Systems has recently
introduced Air-Gard™ gaskets in the
Multi-Gard multi-cell conduit systems. This
new system is the answer to both pulling and
jetting cable placement. Jetting cable is growing in
popularity as Sherman and Reilly from Chattanooga,
®
Tennessee gain acceptance of their Cable-Jet and Super-Jet jet®
ting machines. Multi-Gard was tested in a field trial using the Super-Jet
hydraulic equipment supplied by Sherman and Reilly.
Jetting Cable into Multi-Gard
Carlon Telecom Systems and Electric Lightwave agreed to have Niels
Fugal Sons Construction jet cable into a section of Multi-Gard installed in
the International Center Industrial Park located in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Electric Lightwave, a metropolitan access provider, is installing a bypass
network for the entire industrial park. Niels Fugal Sons was chosen for the
®
trial based on their considerable experience with Cable-Jet equipment.
A 96 Fiber 14mm HDPE jacketed cable was supplied by Northern
Telecom. The job layout consisted of 5,600' from end to end with two
hand holes needing slack for future deployment. Dave Fox of Niels Fugal
had 23 years of experience with U.S. West many pulling cable. “I’ve
28
®
never seen one of these multi-cells work yet,” Dave said before the project started.
Jet Field Trial Layout
The starting hand hole was prepared using standard SDR
®
13.5 innerduct for flexibility from the SuperJet hydraulic
machine into the Multi-Gard terminator in the hand hole.
Each manhole was terminated using “pass-through” terminators, allowing innerduct to be plugged into the terminator on either side of the manhole. A compressor
with 375 CFM and 140 PSI capabilities supplied air
®
to the Super-Jet machine. Air alone was supplied
to one innerduct of the multi-cell to clean out any
possible debris resulting from unplugged
innerduct terminators. Small foam sponges were
shot through each innerduct to further clean the
system. Sherman and Reilly recommended
®
only two to three ounces of Cable-Jet lubricant be added to the already pre-lubricated
PVC innerducts in the Multi-Gard. A tarp
was laid out to keep the cable clean before
innerduct entry. Lastly, a small hollow
“bullet” was attached to the end of the
cable for cable alignment.
“It Works”
Dave Fox pushed about 150 feet of
®
cable by hand and the Super-Jet
hydraulic machine took it from
there. Cable speeds approached
210 feet per minute while the
pressure maintained 110 PSI to
120 PSI. (Speeds of 300 Feet +
are obtainable using pneumatic
units) “It held the pressure. It
works,” Dave said, as the cable
was feeding into the MultiGard without a problem. The
cable was successfully jetted
5,600' in less than 29 minutes.
“This is the first multi-cell system
I’ve seen work. I would recommend it if you’re needing four holes
instead of three.”
Pulling Cable into Multi-Gard
Multi-Gard multi-cell was originally designed for
cable pulling. Documented field trials of up to 7,400' at only
280 pounds of pulling tension have been recorded. The PVC innerducts
lay straight. Conventional theory says PE used for pulling innerducts
should apply to pre-installed innerducts. This theory is invalid. The idea is
to make pre-installed innerducts as straight as possible with the lowest coefficient of friction between the cable and the innerduct surface. Multi-cells
use an outershell and spacers to hold the innerducts in place. PE is only
25% as stiff as PVC, causing even filled PE innerducts used in multi-cells
to “sag” between the spacers. This sagging causes increased pulling tension and, consequently, shorter pulls. Multi-Gard PVC innerducts lay
straight and are also prelubed in a process which reduces the co-efficient
of friction below that of even pre-lubed PE. Carlon Telecom Systems PVC
smooth wall innerduct provides co-efficient of friction well below .10 recommended by Bellcore using the Bellcore GR-356 procedures.
Planning for the Future
Protection and management of the cable to be placed is less expensive
and more useable with proper planning. The use of multi-cell conduit and
advanced cable placing techniques can provide for future growth while
protecting the ever increasing traffic on the cables being installed.
Protection will become more important as higher volumes of information
are transmitted. Multi-Gard reduces costs over traditional conduit placing
methods, while offering increased protection in one complete engineered
system.
Carlon Telecom Systems patented flexible bend allows changes in directions and 0˚ to 90˚ bends. Each bend is manufactured using innerduct
made of an engineered plastic designed to avoid pull rope cutting
through the innerduct into an adjacent occupied innerduct.
Only two to three ounces of Cable-Jet® lubricant (manufactured by
American Polywater® Inc.) are added to Multi-Gard® factory prelubricated innerducts.
More information is available on Multi-Gard by calling Carlon Telecom
Systems at 1-800-322-7566.
Multi-Gard® jet layout required
jetting cable through two manholes using pass-through terminators. Innerduct was extended
from one side of the manhole to
the other side using only gasketed “pass-through” terminators.

And The Winner Is...

Multi-Gard Multi-Cell Conduit System
From Carlon Telecom Systems
A major telephone
company sponsored a
competition to compare
and evaluate the two
leading multi-cell conduit
systems currently available
in the communications
industry.
Under the supervision
of the telephone
company, an independent
contractor was hired to
install the two multicell conduit systems
meeting standard
installation requirements.
Additionally, a consultant
was retained by the
telephone company to monitor the test pulls and prepare
a product evaluation for each multi-cell conduit system.
The following information was compiled from the
consultant’s report. Values stated were derived from
actual field measurements or calculated from field
measurements.
Carlon’s multi-cell conduit system, Multi-Gard®,
offered smooth wall PVC innerducts with factory applied
silicone lining. The competitor’s multi-cell conduit system
offered a longitudinal ribbed polyethylene, silicone lined
innerduct product.
The installation layout selected for the trial consisted
of a 4,900-foot section that included numerous horizontal
and vertical directional changes, eight manholes, and a
road bore. Additionally, record-breaking rainfall made
the competition even more intense.
Carlon’s Multi-Gard
system successfully
completed the trial
pull with the test cable.
The competitor’s system
could not.
A 1/4" composite
rope (braided polyethylene over braided
polyester) was blown
into the innerduct of
Carlon’s Multi-Gard.
The force required to
pull the rope through
the 4,900 feet was 27
pounds. This force was
measured after the
rope rested in the
flooded innerduct for more than 10 hours.
The test cable required a maximum pull force of 440
pounds to complete the 4,900 feet trial. At 4,173 feet
into the pull, the cable jacket yielded and the pull came
to a stop. The basket grip was re-installed on the cable
and only 267 pounds of force was required to start the
cable moving.
Using the values measured and the tension forecasting
software provided by the consultant, the coefficient of
friction was calculated as follows:
Pull Rope
Test Cable
Cable B
.09
.18
.13
Please refer to the back for details and a layout of
the trial.
The cable selected for the trial consisted of a six pair,
copper cable with a low density polyethylene jacket.
This particular cable was selected because it is approximately the same weight and diameter as many fiberoptic cables. The low density polyethylene jacket placed
the evaluation under the worst possible coefficient of
friction conditions.
