Dismantling Joints
General
- The dismantling joint in a hydraulic installation is the necessary joining element between different fittings so that they are easily adjusted to the net or removed from it.
- Rubber sealing ring is of special material and thickens, in order to assure a tight sealing and prevent the dismantling joint from being damaged.
- When the dismantling joint is used for clean water in water supply or irrigation net the sealing ring is made of EPDM (temperature: -20oC to +130oC).
- For impure water and sewage the sealing ring is made of VITON, which presents a remarkable resistance in both highly intoxicated water and high temperatures. (temperature: -10oC to +250oC).
- In both cases the rubber ring does not present the slightest worn-out, that may be caused by external factors such as bad weather conditions or the sun.
- The dismantling joints are manufactured for working pressures 10atm and 16atm and are tested in 25atm.
- Dismantling joints from 25atm up to 64atm are available upon request.
Applications
- Water supply, Irrigation Networks
- Sewage networks
Advantages
- Big tolerance in high pressures
- Little maintenance necessary
- Can be repaired without being removed from the pipeline
