UltraGrip Amplified for Prague Water

Viking Johnson ha fornito giunti UltraGrip con adattatori a flangia a un partner di canale chiave, TRAN-SIG-MA. Si tratta di un progetto di ristrutturazione della rete di condotte in via Jeremiasova, nel centro di Praga, per conto della più grande azienda di servizi idrici e fognari della Repubblica Ceca, Prague Water. Questa conduttura idrica è un’arteria fondamentale della città che rifornisce 85.000 persone da una stazione di stoccaggio dell’acqua situata fuori città, a Kopanina.

The project was complex and involved renewal of an existing DN800 steel water main pipeline by replacing a section with new ductile iron pipework, plus upgrading of an old existing gate valve with a new eccentric butterfly valve, to have better control of fluid flow, as well as adding in new hydrants to the system, connecting to a DN600 pipeline.

UltraGrip was the ideal in this situation as it was also able to cope with misalignment of the DN800 steel pipe which had an angular deflection of about 5 degrees and easily met the pressure requirements of 8 bar and can be fitted to a wide variety of pipe materials.
