Check of gas pipes

With the conclusion of a gas supply contract building and flat owners aswell as tenants get responsible for a competent and regular check and maintenance of the house gas network. This is the issue as well of the connection and use conditions for gas as well as of the general safety duties according the applicable law. The Technical Rules for gas installations require a visual check one timea year and a comprehensive technical check of all gas pipes every 10-12 years at the latest. Shorter check intervals, e.g. every 5 years are recom- mended when the building age or state increase the risks. The profes- sional installation of gas pipes provides with a long-lasting and safe lifes- pan. But leaks and rust cannot be excluded. Even the most secure tech- nique requires regular checks.The check case ecom-DPK offers a complete kit for the evaluation of gasinstallations. Connection tubes with quick-fittings as well as practical connection adapters render the operation uncomplicated. The following checks at gas networks with operation pressures up to 100 mbar can be easily performed with the ecom-DPK: •Preliminary check (load test with 1 bar test pressure)•Main check (tightness check with 110 mbar test pressure) •Leakage rate measurements (by e.g. 50 mbar) The results of these checks can be documented via infrared thermal printer.
