ALPEX-GAS - other accessories
The ALPEX-GAS - other accessories category includes sealing materials, connection tools and monitoring equipment for gas installations. These products are used for sealing threaded joints, adapting ball valves, and measuring pressure in gas systems. They are compatible with ALPEX-GAS piping systems and support safe and efficient installation and maintenance.
Items include self-vulcanizing sealing tapes, thread sealants, ball cap levers, butterfly-to-ball-cap adapters, and radial manometers. These accessories are essential for ensuring airtight connections, adapting valve configurations, and monitoring system performance during installation or service.
How to choose
- Select sealing tapes and sealants based on dimensions such as width (25–38 mm) and length (3.5 m) to match the pipe size and joint type.
- Choose ball cap levers or butterfly-to-ball-cap adapters according to the valve size, such as 1/4" to 3/4" or 1" to 5/4".
- Match manometers to the required pressure range (e.g., 0–60 mbar or 0–100 mbar) and ensure compatibility with the gas system's hydraulic design.
Frequently asked questions
Can self-vulcanizing sealing tape be used for both gas and water systems?
Self-vulcanizing sealing tape is specifically designed for gas systems and should not be used for water installations due to differing material properties and sealing requirements.
What is the purpose of an installation box in ALPEX-GAS systems?
An installation box provides a secure and organized housing for components such as valves and manometers, ensuring accessibility and protection during system operation and maintenance.
