GIGA - UNDER PRESSURE TEE

Under pressure tee GIGA applications
Under pressure Tees for large diameter service connections and by-pass diversions. These are installed on cast iron and asbestos cement pipes for up to nominal maximum pressure of 16 bar in water.

Type of connection
At the top of the Giga saddles there is a flange, in accordance with DIN standards, to which any type of standard accessory can be coupled.

Collar components
The Giga collars are made up of a saddle (upper part) and two straps (lower part). The appropriate saddle and straps should be selected for each by-pass deviation and pipe diameter size.

EPDM joint with ACS Certificate
All Torre saddles are equipped with EPDM joints with drinking water certificates.
WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme)
ACS (Attestation de Conformité Sanitaire)

Slide plate shut off
To carry out the under pressure connection operation, the water flow is interrupted, by means of inserting the stainless steel slide plate that is supplied with the Giga equipment.

Maximum corrosion resistance
The different materials that make up the Giga tees are electrically insulated to prevent galvanic type corrosion. The straps incorporate weld free manufacturing techniques to avoid inter-granular corrosion.

Convenient installation
The compactness 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 connections
By loosening the nuts and inserting the slide plate, repair work can be carried out on the service connection network or the tapping can be capped off by means of inserting a blind end flange.

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 along with an infor-mation sheet detailing the range of applications and the size of milling cutter that should be used.
