These fibers enable SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) functionality, allowing operators to detect leaks, stress, temperature changes, and unauthorized excavation activity. They also provide high-bandwidth data transmission essential for safe, efficient, and intelligent pipeline operations\u2014often in harsh, remote environments.<\/p>\n<p>Protecting these fiber optic cables is critical. Rodents and insects pose a significant threat, as they can chew through cable sheathing, damage core fibers, and create pathways for moisture ingress. Such damage can lead to service outages, unreliable data, safety risks, and costly repairs.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border: 3px solid #273A80; background-color: #69c3e8; margin: 15px 0px 15px 0px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 20px; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polywater.com\/en\/knowledge-hub\/faq-expanding-foam-duct-and-conduit-sealing-applications\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Related Content: <\/strong>FAQs on Expanding Foam Duct and Conduit Sealants<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Rodent-related damage can sever fiber lines entirely, resulting in immediate and widespread communication failures that disrupt SCADA systems. These failures increase operational risk and can compromise pipeline safety. \u201cFix-it-after-it-breaks\u201d approaches are expensive, requiring emergency truck rolls, replacement materials, and extended downtime. Even minor damage to the cable jacket can allow moisture intrusion, further degrading fiber performance and long-term reliability. Because these fiber lines directly support pipeline monitoring, any disruption can impair critical safety alerts across the gas infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2>Challenge<\/h2>\n<p>At a natural gas transmission site, fiber optic cable was installed inside conduit leading into a control room. The facility experienced recurring issues with mice and insects entering through the conduits, ultimately damaging a 96-fiber cable connected to network equipment.<\/p>\n<p>The contractor needed a sealing solution that could:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Effectively block rodents, insects, and water<\/li>\n<li>Be installed easily around an existing fiber cable<\/li>\n<li>Provide a durable, long-term seal without complex tools or extended cure times<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Creating a durable seal around fiber within a small conduit proved challenging using other sealing methods.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border: 3px solid #273A80; background-color: #69c3e8; margin: 15px 0px 15px 0px;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding: 20px; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polywater.com\/en\/knowledge-hub\/keeping-rodents-out-of-critical-infrastructure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Related Content: <\/strong>Keeping Rodents Out of Critical Infrastructure<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Evaluating a Solution<\/h2>\n<p>Before specifying a permanent sealing product, the contractor conducted a field trial using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polywater.com\/en\/product\/polywater-zipseal-foam-sealant-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Polywater\u00ae ZipSeal\u2122 Foam Duct Sealant<\/a> inside an underground handhole enclosure.
