Showcasing the latest in pipe joining technologies and innovation for the global mining industry, Victaulic will be exhibiting at this year’s MINExpo International in Las Vegas.
Vitaulic’s Series 795 knife gate valve is the industry’s first knife gate valve designed to be maintained in-line without having to remove the entire valve from the pipeline. This helps in 95% savings in downtime and more than 60% savings in annual maintenance costs. It is also the first Installation-Ready™ valve, made with an integrated coupling design allowing the valve to be directly installed on the pipe.
Vitaulic’s Refuse-to-Fuse™ System for HDPE pipe is simpler than traditional fusing methods installing up to 10-times faster, reducing labor costs, and schedule times while also eliminating the need for expensive equipment rentals and certified technicians.
The system is suitable for plain end and grooved HDPE pipelines, and can be used above ground, below ground, and in buried systems.The Refuse-to-Fuse™ system streamlines maintenance, as couplings can be readily disassembled and removed from the pipe, and then easily reassembled upon completion of the work.
