www.read-tpi.comA new purge pressure tee for gas purge
points and bypass connections has been
launched by Radius Systems (previously
Uponor). The tee provides a solution to
the challenge of making a safe, quick
and simple connection for purge and
pressure points and temporary bypass
loops for polyethylene pressure pipes.
A compact, factory-made electrofusion
fitting, the purge tee has been specifically
developed to save time and reduce
waste on-site, and is designed to be
so easy to use that no extra training is
required to fit it. All fittings are approved
to gas specification requirement PL2:
part 4, which guarantees delivery of a
quality product with long-term integrity.
Benefits for installers are the ongoing
consistency and quality of the fitting,
ensuring safe work in less time. The
fitting is also claimed to be smaller than
any combination of products currently
used for site-based constructions, also
reducing the risk of third-party damage.
A full range is available in all sizes
for which connections are required,
including a 40mm to 500mm range
for the 1" connection, and a 63mm to
500mm range for the 2" connection.
Other benefits of the new fitting include
non-sparking plastic threaded closure
caps with nitrile O-ring seals to prevent
gas ignition risk. No ‘snatch’ operation
is required. Unifit range rated bases are
capable of working on more than one
pipe size, minimising stockholding.
