Doyma DL link chains
General view
Link chains have established themselves as a low cost system to seal pipes and cables, which are taken
into buildings. The advantage of this sealing system is its modular design: The assembly of several
sealing modules produces the chain which is then ready for installation.
This modular system, comprising just 16 sizes of sealing module, enables pipes and cables from 21 mm
to 1220 mm dia. to be successfully sealed.
The choice of the sealing module required for the seal depends on the pipe diameter and is
calculated using the formula overleaf or by computer progamme. This software can be downloaded from
the internet (www.doyma.de).
The benefits
Doyma DL sealing modules have specific advantages which make this sealing system secure.
- Expansion-free Y-connection technology
The unique geometry of the rubber sealing elements ensures their sealing efficiency no leak path is
possible.
- Continuous AquaStop safety groove
The continuous AquaStop safety groove effects a more efficient compression of the sealing elements
and therefore provides a greater sealing performance.
- Distortion-resistant pressure elements
The inside perimeter profile of the pressure elements ensures they bed positively into the body of the
rubber elements during tightening; this ensures they maintain their designed, relative position during
installation.
Models
Doyma supply sealing modules for different hydrostatic loading cases. There is a broad version
DL Sealing module B for high loads and a slim version DL Sealing module S for low loads.
The components of the DL sealing modules can be supplied in various materials, depending on the
performance requirements:
- Screws: galvanized or stainless steel
- Eloslomor. EPDM, EPDM-KTW, N8R
Doyma DL sealing box
In order to accommodate market requirements, DOYMA also supplies the complete DL link chain
pre-assembled: the DL sealing box. It contains a chain ready for installation according to customers
requirements for standard pipe diameters.
Please note:
- Doyma DL link chains are suitable for sealing in the ground. If used for heavy loads in high rise
buildings, e.g. in tanks or similar containers, movement of the DL link chain, which might be caused by
excessive maximum pressure, has to be prevented.
- Doyma DL link chains are not fixed points and are not designed for load bearing. If settlement of
pipelines is expected, centering rings or spacers should be fitted in the sleeve or core bore during
installation.

How to find the right chain

D - d
s = Ringraumdicke
Service pipe
Core bore/
pipe sleeve
s = 47 mm = sealing module 475 B Example for sealing module B:
1. Which sealing module?
The appropriate Doyma DL link chain for an application is deter-
mined by the annular space between the diameter of the sleeve or
core bore and the ducted service. The optimum link chain is smaller
than the annular space in its relaxed (untensioned) state but larger
when tensioned. The annular space is calculated as follows:
Annular space s =
The product of the calculation is used to select the appropriate sealing
module (see table below); it will have a "relaxed module
clearance uM" less than the product and a "tensioned module clea-
ronco qM qroolor lbon lbo rooocl. 1osl onlor lbo colcololoo voloo
according to sealing module B or S into the column annular space s
and you will get the corresponding sealing module.
2. How many modules?
The required number of sealing modules must now be calculated after
determining the sealing module version. For this, the bow length BL for
the selected sealing module may be derived from the table below.
The number of modules is calculated using the following formula. The
result is the number of modules rounded up or down.
No. of sealing modules n =
If the number after the decimal point is smaller than 0.5, it will be
rounded down, otherwise round up to the next full number of links.

Doyma DL sealing module B
Technical details
Doyma DL link chains consist of individual sealing modules whose
number and size are designed according to the annular space
between the media pipe/cable and the core bore/pipe sleeve
service duct to be sealed. The link chain is therefore also suitable for
retrofit installations.
DL sealing module B with broad design for high hydrostatic loads
consists of two adjoining rubber sealing elements between the
pressure elements.
The range of sealing modules B is from DL 200, for annular space
widths of 12.5 - 17.0 mm, to DL 650, for annular space widths of
71.0 - 85.0 mm (see table).
DL sealing modules are available in different variations:
- with galvanized screws or screws in stainless steel
- wilb mooolos mooo o EPDM, EPDM or orin|inq wolor or N8R
Please use our calculating programme to find the exact specifica-
tion for the link chain required.

71.0 - 81.5 mm (see table).
DL sealing modules are available in different variations:
- with galvanized screws or screws in stainless steel
- wilb mooolos mooo o EPDM, EPDM-KTW or N8R
