Next Generation UltraGrip Reducing Couplings

Specifications
Working Pressure & Temperature Ratings
Nominal Size DN40 to DN300 DN350 to DN400 Gripping Product Gas 5bar 5bar Water 16bar 10bar Flex Product Gas 5bar 5bar Water 16bar 10bar Operating Temperature -20C to+30C
Notes: 1) Site Test Pressure 1.5 times working pressure. 2) Factory Test Pressure The minimum requirement in European Standards is 1.5 times working pressure plus 5bar (e.g. 29bar for 16bar working pressure), but in many cases Viking Johnson reaches substantially higher levels up to 36bar. 3) All water contact components are approved for use with Potable Water.

Application Notes
Pipe Materials
Gripping product - works on the following pipe materials Steel/Ductile iron/Grey cast iron/ PE/PVC Flex product - works on the following pipe materials Steel/Ductile iron/Grey cast iron/ PVC/Asbestos cement / GRP Restrained couplings for buried application only - Since it is not possible to safely predict the additional loads in above ground pipework, due to thermal expansion and other external inuences, Viking Johnson restricts the use of restrained couplings to buried applications only.

Support liners - PE and PVC pipes


A close t support liner is required when used on all PE pipes and thin walled PVC pipes. When used on thick walled PVC pipes a support liner is not required. (Contact Viking Johnson for further advice on this matter.)
