Under pressure saddle CEDEC applicationsCollars with an exclusive connection system for installing PE service branching under pressure on cast iron and asbestos cement pipes for up to a nominal maximum pressure of 16 bar in water. These are also used with excellent results on polyethylene and PVC pipe networks with a molecular orientation.
Collar components The collar is made up of a saddle (upper part) and a strap (lower part). The saddles are equipped with a universal seal that fits all pipes from 60 mm up to 300 mm.
EPDM joint with WRAS and ACS CertificateAll Torre saddles are equipped with EPDM joints with drinking water certificates.
WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme)
ACS (Attestation de Conformité Sanitaire)
Spatula shut offTo carry out the under pressure connection operation the water flow is interrupted by means of inserting the spatula that is supplied with the drilling equipment.
Exclusive connection systemThe Cedec saddle direct system for connection under pressure is an exclusive system that enables the PE service connection pipe to be joined directly to the saddle, being fastened by means of a floating clamp, providing maximum anchoring with minimum assembly effort.
Maximum corrosion resistanceThe different materials that make up the Cedec saddles are electrically insulated to prevent galvanic type corrosion. The straps incorporate weld free manufacturing techniques to avoid inter-granular corrosion.
Convenient installation The compact nature of the Torre drilling equipment and the strap anchoring system make it possible for these collars to be installed in places with restricted access and in any vertical, horizontal or sloping position.
Capping off service connectionsBy loosening the nut and inserting the spatula, repair work can be carried out on the service connection network or the tapping can be capped off by means of inserting a PE plug (see back for details).
Storage advantages Saddles and straps alike are supplied in labelled boxes to make handling, storage and identification easier. Each box comes with a brochure including detailed assembly instructions.
