( EUROCOUP FLANGE ‘ORS < DN1800,
Clean pipe ends, removing oil, dirt, loose scale, rust
‘and foreign material over a distance of 200mm., the
pipe surfaces shall be smooth and free from grooves.
‘and corrosion, and they have to be clean.
Mark the pipe end to be a guide for locating pipe in
adaptor. Pipe should enter adaptor body at least look
at the tolerance V = 5mm. Minimum! Slip follower over
pipe end. Clean the gaskets in soapy water (*). Slide
the gasket over the pipe with tapered edge towards
pipe end.
Make sure body is clean, specifically the flared gasket
seal. Slip adaptor over pipe end. Flange gasket and
flange bolts to be supplied by customer.
Clean adaptor and companion flange faces, install
flange gasket and tighten bolts.
Lubricate pipe end and flare of body with soapy water
‘and slide gasket and follower into place, the follower
‘over studbolts. Assemble washers and nuts and
tighten equally, step by step with 10Nm. ata time, on
‘opposite sides, unti all bolts have a uniform required
torque according values, as indicated below.
Where pipe movement out of the coupling or flange
. adaptor might ocour, proper anchorage must be
provided.
(*) Instead of soapy water a other lubricant may be
E Used. Lubricant Klubersynth VR 69-252 is approved
grease for drinking water with EPDM elastomers.
Don't lubricated bolts and nuts.
Torque recommendations:
‘Standard flange adaptor:
P.O.D. 60,3mm thru 152mm with Bolt M12_50Nm
P.0.D. 159mm thru 65mm with Bolt M12_70Nm
P.O.D. >700mm above with Bolt M16 410Nm
‘Super flange adaptor (Unijoint indicate):
P.O.D. 159mm thru 350mm with Bolt M12 70Nm
P.0.0. >355mm above with Bolt M16 110Nm
(Re-torque the nuts after 24 or 48 hours and before the
pressure test or come into full operation!
Pipe tolerances:
Over a length of 250mm pi
{following tolerances and ovality (incl. coating’):
Cast Iron Pipes : 2mm
Steel Pipes: P.0.D. 60,3 thru <273,1mm: +1,6 -0,4
P.O.D. >273,1 thru 180mm: +2,4-0,8
