GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
EZ-Path® Series 44+ Split Floor Plate
CATALOG NUMBER EZP144F, EZDP144FKS & EZDP144FKS2
The Split Floor Plate is engineered to facilitate the installation of the EZ-Path® Series 44+ pathway
in fire-rated floors. The pathway is designed to install in a 6 in. (152 mm) round opening. The plate is
comprised of two halves that are secured to the pathway using a hook and eye attachment. A hook tab
portion attaches to a matching eye on the pathway. An eye portion attaches to a corresponding hook tab
on the opposite side of the pathway. Screws and nuts fasten the two halves together once the plates are
assembled around the pathway. Suitable concrete anchors (purchased separately) are required to fasten
the assembled pathway/plate to the floor.

REMOVING LID TO FACILITATE INSTALLATION AROUND EXISTING CABLES
Pathway lid is removed to allow device to be installed around existing cable bundles.
1. Cut label at seam of pathway on both sides and place pathway on a flat surface with the lock at center
of pathway facing up (See Fig. 1).
2. Push down slightly on the channel below the lock, slide lid to the left to deactivate lock and remove lid
(See Fig. 2).
3. Cut and remove elastic band wrapped around intumescent pads and remove top intumescent pad.
4. Place pathway channel around cables.
5. Replace intumescent pad within lid and align slot in lid over channel lock (See Fig. 3).
6. Slide slot in lid over channel lock to full extent and slide pathway lid to the right to reactivate lock
(See Fig. 4).
7. Install pathway per instructions below.

attach to the topmost eye on the pathway. With the plate’s lateral
floor flanges facing upward, slide the hook plate around pathway
(Fig. 5) and engage hook tab firmly into pathway eye (Fig. 6).

Step 4: Install Foam Gasket
Install foam gasket and position below and against assembled
plate flange (Fig. 10).

GROUNDING
At the option of the installer, this pathway may be grounded. After
pathway has been installed, insert ground screws where indicated
(Fig. 12).
BARRIER LABELING
A barrier label is provided with all pathway kits. This label is intended to be used to identify the pathway installer as well as to provide
applicable UL System information.

INSTALLING OR PULLING CABLES
A resilient liner provides an adjustable seal within the pathway device. Liner must be protected from damage while adding or removing
cables. Wrap cable ends with a suitable low friction tape before inserting into the pathway. Where cable lubricants are used, low solids,
water-based products are recommended. This device is designed to be fully functional at all cable loadings from completely empty to
visually filled, and cables should easily slide through the pathway using minimal effort. IF RESISTANCE IS ENCOUNTERED, DO NOT
FORCE CABLES OR CABLE BUNDLES THROUGH THE PATHWAY. DAMAGE MAY RESULT. Upper curved liner may be depressed
when inserting cables, if necessary, using a flat, smooth implement and then removing it after cables are installed. The rectangular shape
of the loading area coupled with gentle pressure exerted by resilient liners will naturally distribute the cables at a relatively uniform height
across the width of the device. The use of a cable dressing/combing instrument to straighten and organize cables may help to maximize
usable space within the pathway device.
MAINTENANCE
No maintenance of the pathway is normally required. Interior of pathway should be inspected before and after any modifications to cable
bundle. If any damage to intumescent pads lining top and bottom of the pathway is found, contact the factory to determine if replacement is necessary.
