Diverse range of series-
manufactured products
Jacob Pipework Systems has increased
its range of series-manufactured and
special products. The patented Jacob
Earthing Bridge, with around 200,000
sales to date, is being complemented
with a new model – the Universal
Earthing Bridge.
This modification has an even wider
field of application and replaces the
earthing cable traditionally used for
the electrostatic potential equalisation
of pipe systems. Because the bridge
is fixed to the Jacob pull-ring using
simple screw-fixings, no welding work
is required, even for retrofitting existing
systems.
The diversity of additional abrasion
protection systems and non-stick
coatings is demonstrated by differently
lined pipes and fittings. A wide variety
of lining materials and thicknesses
is available to suit the customer’s
requirements. Tried and tested PU
linings or special brand-name linings
with thicknesses of 2 to 8mm, which are
used to line the inside of the pipes to
maximise their service life, are a popular
choice. These can also be provided to
food-grade standard, if required.
The new Jacob Hygiene Distributor
is suited to applications where the
requirement for frequent cleaning of the
inner surfaces necessitates quick and
easy disassembly and reassembly of
the parts. The innovative design of the
distributor allows this to be achieved
even in its installed state. The entire
shaft and flap components can be
removed and refitted easily without
using tools.
