New modular pipework catalogue Jacob UK has launched a new product catalogue on modular pipework systems for designers, technical specifiers and installers. With 154 pages of product and application details, the catalogue is packed with information on modular pipework systems, and is also available in pdf format.

built modular pipework with easily connected bends, segments and pipe sections, manufactured in 1, 2 or 3mm thicknesses, all with pressure tight connections. Each component has a machine-lipped end that, when fitted with a specially designed U-shaped gasket and Quick-Connect pull-ring, creates a 3-bar overpressure certified connection. Air movement within a Jacob pipeline is enhanced with the smooth-pressed bends, which assist airflow with the minimum of resistance. Jacob (UK) director John West commented, “The introduction of conductive powder coated pipe, electrostatically applied on the internal and external surfaces, marks a major step forward in pipework technology and offers huge benefits for designers and manufacturers, where high grade modular pipework saves time and money on installation and maintenance.”

The company manufactures thin- walled, fully welded modular pipework systems, components and valves, and its catalogue has become an important technical reference book for engineers, designers and installers. New items in the 2011 catalogue include: modular pipework, certified shock explosion proof to 10 bar overpressure; explosion proof, flashback resistant shut-off valves to DEKRA standards; and continuously powder coated pipe on both internal and external surfaces. With 19 standard diameters from 60 to 800mm in galvanised or stainless steel and now in the latest powder
