Dedicated to saving time - Series 603 Flange adaptor - UK Version
No back stop, lighter weight, tie rods. That’s the essence of the Series 603 dedicated flange adaptor for water and sewage, one of the recent introductions now available from the newly-created AVK Fittings.
“The 603 is designed to connect plain metal and uPVC pipes to flanged pipes from DN80 to DN200,” explains sales manager Bill Taylor Veitch. “There are four sizes, each with a sealing range of 11mm on average covering main pipe types, ductile iron, cast iron, steel and uPVC, whereas most manufacturers offer fewer sizes with a typical sealing range of 25mm.
“Because each standard universal flange adaptor must seal across a wider range they have to be fitted with longer bolts that take longer to tighten, but the opposite is true of our Series 603. The difference may seem trivial, but not when you spend your working day laying and connecting pipes. Every second counts, and (as the saying goes) time is money.”
As is to be expected, the AVK 603 flange adaptor complies with all the applicable standards and certifications – BS EN, WIS and WRAS – and is suitable for a maximum working pressure of 16 bar, temperatures from -10°C to +70°C, and a total angular deflection of ±4 degrees (although it is not designed for end load resistant applications).
