Modular mechanical sealing systems for pipes in municipal networks, wastewater treatment plants, water treatment facilities, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning installations in buildings
How can the space between your pipe and the opening in the wall of a chamber, tank, basin or concrete slab—where a hole has just been cut to allow the pipe to pass—be effectively and permanently sealed? This is the question we aim to address in the following pages. We present the available technology, as well as the combinations of specialised materials with mechanical fastening elements, to ensure a long-term, safe and reliable installation of various components.
Spacer and Insulating Rings – Professional, Proven Solutions for Under- and Over-Crossings of Water and Sewer Pipes Installed Inside Casing Pipes
What do we do when a pipeline must pass beneath a road, a riverbed, a national highway, railway embankments, bridges or culverts, flood-protection dykes, motorways, or protected heritage areas in old city centres?
What happens when project specifications require the protection of active pipelines by inserting them into casing pipes?
Volumetric Pneumatic Pipe Stoppers vs. Cylindrical Stoppers: Simple, Safe, Tight
In the daily work of water and sewer operators, the need arises to block certain pipeline sections in order to carry out repairs, connections, new nodes or pressure tests.
What devices are used in such cases?
The most common devices are pneumatic pipe stoppers of various types.
Water Tanks: Cleaning and Disinfection
For potable water tanks, the National Regulations in force, such as Order No. 114 of 04.02.2014, Art. 25, Par. 6, do not specify an exact cleaning or disinfection frequency, but these actions are required whenever necessary. Likewise, in international specialty literature (ANSI/AWWA C625), no specific frequency is defined for cleaning and/or disinfection, although such operations are considered mandatory whenever needed.
Water Tanks: Periodic Inspections, Maintenance & Repairs
Why is a maintenance program necessary? The answer is simple: preventive maintenance will always be cheaper than crisis interventions. For example, it is far more cost-effective to identify corroded sections of tank walls or passive and active components and intervene locally, than to rehabilitate the entire surface of the tank and possibly replace the components mentioned above.
