Advantages Of Rubber Sealing Test Plugs
 |
A Round Knurled Cap For Hand Tight Sealing. |
|
Captive Cap. |
|
The Plugs’ Rubber Cores Are Made To The Right Hardness To Give Easy
Insertion And A Fast Seal. |
|
Tried And Tested For Over Twenty Years. |
|
"Selfseal’’ Test Plugs- The Professionals Choice. |
|
Very Practical, Conserve Energy, Sold World Wide. |
Easy To Install
|
The Test Plug is screwed into a BSP welded socket
or a threaded boss, threaded pipe tee, valve or vessel. |
Quick And Easy To Use
|
Unscrew captive cap, push the
pressure gauge/manometer or thermometer probe through the Test Plug, take your reading,
remove probe and replace cap.
|
Versatile
|
Obtain pressure and
temperature readings, determine flow rate. Plugs can also be used to inject fluids
into the system.
|
Low Cost
|
Test Plugs are extremely economical. The price of
two brass Test Plugs is generally cheaper than a gauge cock, or pressure gauge. |
For Heating Installations
For Chilled Water Installations
For Process Services
|
For measurement of flow rate two Test Plugs are used, one on each
side of an orifice, calibrated valve or an item of equipment of known pressure loss/flow
characteristics. Pressure differential is used to determine flow rate. |
|
In any system
of pipe-work requiring to be balanced or regulated it is essential to be able to readily
determine:- |
A) Temperature
B) Flow Rate
|
Test Plugs incorporated at strategic points in the piping system
are a quick and economical method of obtaining such data. |
Provides Accurate Data
|
As direct contact is made with the liquid or gas in the system and
if the correct gauge or thermometer is used, a greater accuracy is given. Our non
mechanical Test Plugs do not rely on springs and will not scale up. |
Reduces Commissioning Time
|
Because of the small size and low cost of Test Plugs, they can be
fitted virtually anywhere in the system where pressure or temperature measurement may be
required, giving the commissioning engineer new methods for balancing and commissioning
with greater accuracy and with real saving in site time. |
Fixed Instruments
|
Permanent pressure gauges and thermometers in pipe-work are
traditionally, restricted to where they would be visually acceptable rather than most
useful. |
|
Test Plugs can be fitted in restricted piping. However they
must be positioned to enable probes to be used to take readings. |
|
A Test Plug fitted close to an instrument can also be used
to check on the accuracy. |
