Description & features
Plugline Multi-Size Metal Core Bypass Stoppers are high-performance tools engineered for reliable flow control and sealing across a wide range of pipe diameters. These stoppers are characterized by their large bypass capabilities and a robust metal core, ensuring maximum stability and high-volume flow-through. Designed to handle demanding industrial and municipal environments, they allow for continuous operation without the need for a complete system shutdown.
Key Features
- Heavy-Duty Metal Core: Features a reinforced metal center that provides superior structural integrity and resistance to high back-pressures compared to standard stoppers.
- Steel construction: size range DN100 — DN1200, working pressure 1,5 bar, back pressure 0,5 bar, operating temperature −40 to 70 °C, Quick Coupling / Schrader air connection.
- Large Bypass Capacity: Equipped with a large internal bypass that facilitates high-volume flow, making it ideal for bypassing sewage or water during active maintenance.
- Multi-Size Flexibility: A single unit accommodates multiple pipe diameters, reducing the number of tools required for various project scales.
- Inflatable Sealing: Provides a secure, adaptable seal that conforms to the pipe walls to prevent leaks while maintaining the bypass flow.
- Engineered for Ease: Despite their heavy-duty build, these stoppers are designed for straightforward installation and inflation in the field.
Advantages
- Uninterrupted Flow: The large bypass allows for significant liquid passage, minimizing the risk of upstream flooding and eliminating the need for expensive bypass pumping.
- Enhanced Stability: The metal core prevents the stopper from deforming under extreme pressure, ensuring a safe and consistent seal.
- Superior Pressure Capacity: Built to withstand the rigorous conditions often found in large-scale sewer and industrial infrastructure.
- Cost Efficiency: By allowing work to proceed while the system is live, these stoppers significantly reduce operational downtime and labor costs.
- Long-Term Durability: Constructed from high-grade materials that resist wear and chemical exposure for a long service life.
Application Areas
- Municipal Sewer & Drain Systems: Perfect for maintenance, repair, and testing in large-scale city sewer lines where high flow must be maintained.
- Industrial Infrastructure: Ideal for flow control in factories, power plants, and refineries that require heavy-duty equipment.
- Wastewater Management: An essential tool for the maintenance and repair of active wastewater treatment pipelines.
- Water Supply Lines: Ensures continuous water delivery to consumers while allowing safe, isolated access for localized repairs.
- Hydrostatic Pressure Testing: Sealing one or both ends of a pipe section to test for leaks under pressure.
Plugline Multi-Size Metal Core Bypass Stoppers are the professional choice for managing high-flow environments, combining the strength of a metal core with the versatility of a large bypass to ensure safe and efficient pipeline operations.
Recommended deployment procedure
Plugline Inflatable Pipe Stoppers are used for sealing, blocking and pressure testing pipework. Follow the procedure below for safe installation and removal.
Verify each stopper for surface defects. Confirm reference matches purchase order. Pre-test in a clean environment to nominal 0.5 bar.
Insert deflated. Place at least two pipe-diameters inside the bore. Secure the connector hose to the inflation valve.
Inflate to nominal pressure indicated on the datasheet. Hold for 60 seconds and verify seal under audible test.
Perform line test per EN 1610 or local code. Record drop, hold time, ambient temperature.
Deflate fully before withdrawal. Inspect for damage. Stopper may be reused for up to 200 cycles under nominal conditions.
