10 HUWA INTERNAL REPAIR CLAMP HUWA SPLIT BARREL 19 HUWA internal repair clamps are used for permanent repairs of broken and damaged pipes from the inside. uids The HUWA split barrel repair clamp is used to repair leaking couplings, broken AC couplings, leaking bell joint connections and high pressure pipes. With the split barrel repair clamp it is possible to repair the pipe without removing the broken coupling. Furthermore it can be easily installed even under rough and wet conditions. No special tools are needed, only a torque wrench. The clamp is suitable for pressures up to 40 bar and on pipes with a diameter up to 1500 mm and length up to mm. The HUWA internal repair clamp oers a cost & labour eective permanent repair solution for the renewal of leaking pipes, in order to conserve water and to protect the environment. The problem: Leakage of pipe joints in the stormwater and sewage watertransportation is a known - and costly fact! The consequences of water loss result in increased pumping & energy cost, including maintenance and lost revenues. Sewage leakage will not only contaminate the surroundings but the waste is also not being transported for proper treatment. The solution: In order to resolve these damaging liabilities concering the ecology, HUWA has found a very simple and functional method, after a two year research program. An ingenious, internal stainless steel repair clamp which is suitable for waste water piping has been designed and tested. The application: The HUWA internal repair clamp can be installed inside pipes of various materials. -20 inch / 500 mm. - or larger - le on the external side of the rubber gasket will ensure a complete sealing surface between the expansion sections and the pipeline to be repaired. ed internal sealing procedure are made of stainless steel 316L quality material and are fully passivated. A very solid and functional expansion system takes care of the proper distribution of the forces on the rubber seal, so that a perfect sealing wil be created. cations Material: stainless steel aisi 304/316. Bolts and nuts: Stainless steel aisi 304/316 with PTFE coating - to avoid galling. Rubber gaskets: NBR or EPDM. Axial gaskets are seated in grooves in each half of the split barrrel. owing out during installation. The initial radial seal is obtained by tightening the end bolts at each end of the barrel. Depending on the size and weight of the product, a hinge construction will be provided to lift the split barrel over the pipe. A vent is installed for testing purpose and to enable the medium to escape during installation. A suitable vent valve is not included. How to order or request prices ll out the "split barrel size request form". This form provides us with all the necessary details to make the quotation and, at a later stage, manufacture the product. We will need to know the pipe diameter, repair situation, pressure and medium as well as the required length. If possible please provide us with a sketch or picture of the repair situation. During the installation of the stainless steel sections one only has to use a screwdriver and a ratchet wrench. In other words, no complicated and costly equipment or installation time is required. The HUWA internal repair clamp has a low amount of parts and is light weight which is an appreciated and welcome feature during installing expansion procedures. ow characteristics can be maintained.
