Aalberts integrated piping systems (IPS)<\/strong><\/a> announces the launch of Apollo PowerPress\u00a0options in large diameter (LD), an extension of its Apollo\u00a0PowerPress\u00a0product line. This new offering, available in large diameters of 2 1\/2-in, 3-in, and 4-in, represents a significant advancement in piping technology, catering to broader applications and offering enhanced flexibility for large-scale projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key features of the Apollo\u00a0PowerPress\u00a0LD make it especially well-suited for the industrial market, including robust HNBR or EPDM sealing elements with zinc-nickel coatings for exceptional corrosion resistance and sealing reliability. HNBR sealing elements are ideal for industrial applications such as process piping, LP\/natural gas and fuel oil delivery, industrial gas distribution, heating fuel oil, engine oil, and hydraulic fluid lines. EPDM sealing elements provide reliable performance in industrial hydronic heating and cooling, low-pressure steam, industrial gas systems, fire protection lines, and process or utility water systems, enabling safe and efficient operation across a wide range of industrial piping installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system incorporates the innovative Leak Before Press technology, preventing unpressed connections from holding pressure and thus enhancing installation integrity and safety. For smaller Apollo PowerPress sizes (1\/2-in to 2-in), a colour-coded Visual Control Ring (VCR) is featured, with tabs that break away to provide quick visual identification of completed connections. A standout feature of the Apollo\u00a0PowerPress\u00a0LD (2-1\/2-in to 4-in) is the colour-coded Visu-Control foil, which splits for easy removal after press completion. This ensures that unpressed connections are easily identifiable prior to system pressurization, further improving quality control and reducing inspection time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apollo\u00a0PowerPress\u00a0LD system is compatible with Ridgid\u00a0and Milwaukee Press Tools, increasing installer convenience and allowing for faster installations with commonly used tools. Its full-port flow design maximizes flow rates, enhancing system efficiency and performance in fluid management. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
