Areas of Application
FRIALEN-Valve Tapping Saddles VAM-RG and VAM-RG-TL are used for acceptance of normal commercial brass valves.
Assembly Instructions
VAM-RG
After scraping and cleaning of the pipe which is being fused and cleaning of the internal surface of the FRIALEN-Valve Tapping Saddle the Valve Tapping Saddle is screwed with the bottom section tightly to the HDPE pipe (see Assembly Instructions for “FRIALEN-Safety Fittings for house connections and distribution pipes up to d 225”).
VAM-RG-TL
The preparation of the surfaces to be fused is the same as for VAM-RG. The saddle is clamped onto the pipe with the FRIATOP clamping device (see pricelist “Technical Equipment”). Please read the “Assembly and Operating Instructions for FRIATOP clamping unit (Top-Loading)”. Fusion takes place by FRIAMAT-fusing.
Eight good reasons for using the FRIALEN-Valve Tapping Saddles:
Compact construction
HDPE saddle with exposed heating element for optimal heat transfer
Gunmetal adapter permanently anchored in the HDPE
To accept normal commercial brass valves
Tapping area free of heating wires
Thread to DIN EN 10226-1, ISO 7-1
Type VAM-RG-TL can be applied universally to large HDPE pipe diameters d 250-315 (560). This means additional economy due to less material needed and less stock both with suppliers and trade
