PIPING SAFETY

When it is impossible to dismantle your pipes for inaccessibility or safety reasons, ERFI FRANCE provides you temporary or permanent repair solutions.

  • Norma connectors allow to connect together metal or plastic tubes with or without traction constraints. We offer you this range of section connectors with all our expertise.
  • Rugged, reliable PLIDCO® Split+Sleeves are widely used for making permanent repairs to pipelines onshore and offshore. They are used for repairs to both high and low pressure and temperature pipelines carrying oil, gas, steam, chemical process and water. Their unique construction permits making the repairs while the line continues on-stream.
  • PLIDCO® Split+Sleeves are designed for faster, easier installation. Patented steel Girder Rings hold factory- installed packing’s firmly in place to prevent their displacement by leaking fluids during installation. Once the PLIDCO® Split+Sleeve is bolted in place, the seal is complete. It may be completely seal-welded with pipeline in operation. All PLIDCO® Split+Sleeves are designed so they can be seal welded unless otherwise specified.
  • The PLIDCO® Split+Sleeve can be used to couple pipe if sufficient end restraint is provided such as with a Plidco Clamp+Ring. The PLIDCO® Split+Sleeve has no end restraint rating in its unwelded condition.
  • Standard working pressure is 1000 psig. Fittings are tested to 1-1/2 times recommended working pressure. Available from stock in API pipe sizes 1-1/2” through 48”. Higher working pressures, longer lengths and other sizes available on request. Buna-N packing is standard, other packing materials available.
