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
- Additional barcode for tracing back the underground fitting (Traceability-Coding)
